Joel - Chapter: 3


3:1	For lo, in those days, and in that time, When I turn back `to' the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
3:2	Then I have gathered all the nations, And caused them to go down unto the valley of Jehoshaphat, And I have been judged with them there, Concerning My people and Mine inheritance -- Israel, Whom they scattered among nations, And My land they have apportioned.
3:3	And for My people they do cast a lot, And they give the young man for an harlot, And the young woman have sold for wine, That they may drink.
3:4	And also, what `are' ye to Me, O Tyre and Zidon, And all circuits of Philistia? Recompence are ye rendering unto Me? And if ye are giving recompence to Me, Swiftly, hastily, I turn back your recompence on your head.
3:5	In that My silver and My gold ye took, And My desirable things that are good, Ye have brought in to your temples.
3:6	And sons of Judah, and sons of Jerusalem, Ye have sold to the sons of Javan, To put them far off from their border.
3:7	Lo, I am stirring them up out of the place Whither ye have sold them, And I have turned back your recompence on your head,
3:8	And have sold your sons and your daughters Into the hand of the sons of Judah, And they have sold them to Shabeans, Unto a nation far off, for Jehovah hath spoken.
3:9	Proclaim ye this among nations, Sanctify a war, stir up the mighty ones, Come nigh, come up, let all the men of war.
3:10	Beat your ploughshares to swords, And your pruning-hooks to javelins, Let the weak say, `I `am' mighty.'
3:11	Haste, and come in, all ye nations round, And be gathered together, Thither cause to come down, O Jehovah, Thy mighty ones.
3:12	Wake and come up let the nations unto the valley of Jehoshaphat, For there I sit to judge all the nations around.
3:13	Send ye forth a sickle, For ripened hath harvest, Come in, come down, for filled hath been the press, Overflowed hath wine-presses, For great `is' their wickedness.
3:14	Multitudes, multitudes `are' in the valley of decision, For near `is' the day of Jehovah in the valley of decision.
3:15	Sun and moon have been black, And stars have gathered up their shining.
3:16	And Jehovah from Zion doth roar, And from Jerusalem giveth forth His voice, And shaken have the heavens and earth, And Jehovah `is' a refuge to his people, And a stronghold to sons of Israel.
3:17	And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah your God, Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain, And Jerusalem hath been holy, And strangers do not pass over into it again.
3:18	And it hath come to pass, in that day, Drop down do the mountains juice, And the hills do flow `with' milk, And all streams of Judah do go `with' water, And a fountain from the house of Jehovah goeth forth, And hath watered the valley of Shittim.
3:19	Egypt a desolation becometh, And Edom a desolation, a wilderness, becometh, For violence `to' sons of Judah, Whose innocent blood they shed in their land.
3:20	And Judah to the age doth dwell, And Jerusalem to generation and generation.
3:21	And I have declared their blood innocent, `That' I did not declare innocent, And Jehovah is dwelling in Zion!
