Amplified Bible
Joel 3:1-5
1“For behold, in those [climactic] days and at that time, When I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
2I will gather together all the [Gentile] nations [that were hostile to My people] And bring them down into the Valley of Jehoshaphat (the Lord has judged). And there I will deal with them and enter into judgment with them there For [their treatment of] My people, My inheritance, Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations, And [because] they have encroached on My land and divided it up.
3They have also cast lots for My people, And have traded a boy for a prostitute And have sold a girl for wine that they may drink.
4Moreover, what are you to Me, O Tyre and Sidon and all the [five small] regions of Philistia? Will you pay Me back for something [I have supposedly done to you]? Even if you do pay Me back, I will swiftly and speedily return your deed [of retaliation] on your own head.
5Because you have taken My silver and My gold and have carried My precious treasures to your temples and palaces,
