Joel 3:2-8

2I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will judge them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and divided 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 Philistia? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily I will return your recompence upon your own head; 5Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my precious things:1 6The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold to the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.2 7Behold, I will raise them out of the place where ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head: 8And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the LORD hath spoken it .
