Yahweh’s Judgment on the Nations
3 [fn] For look! In those days, and in that time, when I will return[fn] the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, 2 I will gather all the nations, and I will bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat, and I will argue a case against them[fn] there concerning my people and my inheritance Israel whom they have scattered among the nations, and my landthat they have divided. 3 For my people they cast lots,[fn] andthey traded[fn] the male child for the prostitute, and the female child they sold for wine and they drankit.
4 What are you to me, O Tyre and O Sidon, and all of the regions of Philistia? Are you repaying to me what is deserved? If you are recompensing me, I will return swiftly and quickly what you deserve on your head! 5 For you have taken my silver and my gold, and my beautiful treasures you have carried into your temples. And the sons of Judah and Jerusalem you sold to the sons of the Greeks, in order to remove them from their border. Look! I am rousing them from the place where you have sold them, and I will return what you deserve on your head! I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans and to a nation far away, for Yahweh has spoken.
