King James Version

Joel 3:2-7

2I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.

3And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink.

4Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;

5Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:1

6The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.2

7Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:
