2 I will gather all the nations
|
||||
and take them to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.
|
||||
I will enter into judgment with them there
|
||||
because of my people, my inheritance Israel.
|
||||
|
||||
The nations have scattered the Israelites
|
||||
in foreign countries
|
||||
and divided up my land.
|
||||
|
||||
3. They cast lots for my people;
|
||||
3 They cast lots for my people;
|
||||
they bartered a boy for a prostitute
|
||||
and sold a girl for wine to drink.
|
||||
|
||||
4. And also: Tyre, Sidon, and all the territories of Philistia--what are you to me? Are you paying me back or trying to get even with me? I will quickly bring retribution on your heads.
|
||||
5. For you took my silver and gold and carried my finest treasures to your temples.
|
||||
6. You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks to remove them far from their own territory.
|
||||
7. Look, I am about to rouse them up from the place where you sold them; I will bring retribution on your heads.
|
||||
8. I will sell your sons and daughters to the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a distant nation,
|
||||
for the Lord has spoken.
|
||||
|
||||
9. Proclaim this among the nations:
|
||||
4 And also: Tyre, Sidon, and all the territories of Philistia—what are you to me? Are you paying me back or trying to get even with me? I will quickly bring retribution on your heads.

5 For you took my silver and gold and carried my finest treasures to your temples.
|

6 You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks to remove them far from their own territory.
|
||||
7 Look, I am about to rouse them up from the place where you sold them; I will bring retribution on your heads.
|
||||
8 I will sell your sons and daughters to the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a distant nation, for the Lord has spoken.
|
||||
9 Proclaim this among the nations:
|
||||
Prepare for holy war;
|
||||
rouse the warriors;
|
||||
let all the men of war advance and attack!
|
||||
|
||||
10. Beat your plows into swords
|
||||
10 Beat your plows into swords
|
||||
and your pruning knives into spears.
|
||||
Let even the weakling say, "I am a warrior."
|
||||
|
||||
11. Come quickly, all you surrounding nations;
|
||||
Let even the weakling say, “I am a warrior.”
|
||||
11 Come quickly, all you surrounding nations;
|
||||
gather yourselves.
|
||||
|
||||
Bring down your warriors there, Lord.
|
||||
|
||||
12. Let the nations be roused
|
||||
12 Let the nations be roused
|
||||
and come to the Valley of Jehoshaphat,
|
||||
for there I will sit down
|
||||
to judge all the surrounding nations.
|
||||
|
||||
13. Swing the sickle
|
||||
13 Swing the sickle
|
||||
because the harvest is ripe.
|
||||
|
||||
Come and trample the grapes
|
||||
because the winepress is full;
|
||||
the wine vats overflow
|
||||
because the wickedness of the nations is extreme.
|
||||
|
||||
14. Multitudes, multitudes
|
||||
14 Multitudes, multitudes
|
||||
in the valley of decision!
|
||||
For the day of the Lord is near
|
||||
in the valley of decision.
|
||||
|
||||
15. The sun and moon will grow dark,
|
||||

|
||||
and the stars will cease their shining.
|
||||
|
||||
16. The Lord will roar from Zion
|
||||
16 The Lord will roar from Zion
|
||||
and make his voice heard from Jerusalem;
|
||||
heaven and earth will shake.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
But the Lord will be a refuge for his people,
|
||||
a stronghold for the Israelites.
|
||||
|
||||
Israel Blessed

|
||||
17. Then you will know
|
||||
17 Then you will know
|
||||
that I am the Lord your God,
|
||||
who dwells in Zion, my holy mountain.
|
||||
Jerusalem will be holy,
|
||||
and foreigners will never overrun it again.
|
||||
|
||||
18. In that day
|
||||
18 In that day
|
||||
the mountains will drip with sweet wine,
|
||||
and the hills will flow with milk.
|
||||
All the streams of Judah will flow with water,
|
||||
and a spring will issue from the Lord's house,
|
||||
and a spring will issue from the Lord’s house,
|
||||
watering the Valley of Acacias.
|
||||
|
||||
19. Egypt will become desolate,
|
||||
19 Egypt will become desolate,
|
||||
and Edom a desert wasteland,
|
||||
because of the violence done to the people of Judah
|
||||
in whose land they shed innocent blood.
|
||||
|
||||
20. But Judah will be inhabited forever,

|
||||
which I have not pardoned,
|
||||
for the Lord dwells in Zion.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
for the Lord dwells in Zion.
