1"For behold<2009>, in those<1992> days<3117> and at that time<6256>, When<834> I restore<7725> the fortunes<7622> of Judah<3063> and Jerusalem<3389>,
2I will gather<6908> all<3605> the nations<1471> And bring<3381> them down<3381> to the valley<6010> of Jehoshaphat<3092>. Then I will enter<8199> into judgment<8199> with them there<8033> On behalf<5921> of My people<5971> and My inheritance<5159>, Israel<3478>, Whom<834> they have scattered<6340> among the nations<1471>; And they have divided<2505> up My land<776>.
3"They have also cast<3032> lots<1486> for My people<5971>, Traded<5414> a boy<3206> for a harlot<2181> And sold<4376> a girl<3207> for wine<3196> that they may drink<8354>.
4"Moreover<1571>, what<4100> are you to Me, O Tyre<6865>, Sidon<6721> and all<3605> the regions<1552> of Philistia<6429>? Are you rendering<7999> Me a recompense<1576>? But if<518> you do recompense<1580> Me, swiftly<7031> and speedily<4120> I will return<7725> your recompense<1576> on your head<7218>.
5"Since<834> you have taken<3947> My silver<3701> and My gold<2091>, brought<935> My precious<4261> treasures<4261> to your temples<1964>,
6and sold<4376> the sons<1121> of Judah<3063> and Jerusalem<3389> to the Greeks<3125> in order<4616> to remove<7368> them far<7368> from their territory<1366>,
7behold<2009>, I am going to arouse<5782> them from the place<4725> where<834><8033> you have sold<4376> them, and return<7725> your recompense<1576> on your head<7218>.
8"Also I will sell<4376> your sons<1121> and your daughters<1323> into the hand<3027> of the sons<1121> of Judah<3063>, and they will sell<4376> them to the Sabeans<7615>, to a distant<7350> nation<1471>," for the LORD<3068> has spoken<1696>.
9Proclaim<7121> this<2088> among the nations<1471>: Prepare<6942> a war<4421>; rouse<5782> the mighty<1368> men<1368>! Let all<3605> the soldiers<582><4421> draw<5066> near<5066>, let them come<5927> up!
10Beat<3807> your plowshares<855> into swords<2719> And your pruning<4211> hooks<4211> into spears<7420>; Let the weak<2523> say<559>, "I am a mighty<1368> man<1368>."
11Hasten<5789> and come<935>, all<3605> you surrounding<5439> nations<1471>, And gather<6908> yourselves there<8033>. Bring<5181> down<5181>, O LORD<3068>, Your mighty<1368> ones<1368>.
12Let the nations<1471> be aroused<5782> And come<5927> up to the valley<6010> of Jehoshaphat<3092>, For there<8033> I will sit<3427> to judge<8199> All<3605> the surrounding<5439> nations<1471>.
13Put<7971> in the sickle<4038>, for the harvest<7105> is ripe<1310>. Come<935>, tread<3381>, for the wine<1660> press<1660> is full<4390>; The vats<3342> overflow<7783>, for their wickedness<7463> is great<7227>.
14Multitudes<1995>, multitudes<1995> in the valley<6010> of decision<2742>! For the day<3117> of the LORD<3068> is near<7138> in the valley<6010> of decision<2742>.
15The sun<8121> and moon<3394> grow<6937> dark<6937> And the stars<3556> lose<622> their brightness<5051>.
16The LORD<3068> roars<7580> from Zion<6726> And utters<5414> His voice<6963> from Jerusalem<3389>, And the heavens<8064> and the earth<776> tremble<7493>. But the LORD<3068> is a refuge<4268> for His people<5971> And a stronghold<4581> to the sons<1121> of Israel<3478>.
17Then you will know<3045> that I am the LORD<3068> your God<430>, Dwelling<7931> in Zion<6726>, My holy<6944> mountain<2022>. So Jerusalem<3389> will be holy<6944>, And strangers<2114> will pass<5674> through it no<3808> more<5750>.
18And in that day<3117> The mountains<2022> will drip<5197> with sweet<6071> wine<6071>, And the hills<1389> will flow<1980> with milk<2461>, And all<3605> the brooks<650> of Judah<3063> will flow<1980> with water<4325>; And a spring<4599> will go<3318> out from the house<1004> of the LORD<3068> To water<8248> the valley<5158> of Shittim<7851>.
19Egypt<4714> will become<1961> a waste<8077>, And Edom<112> will become<1961> a desolate<8077> wilderness<4057>, Because<4480> of the violence<2555> done to the sons<1121> of Judah<3063>, In whose<834> land<776> they have shed<8210> innocent<5355> blood<1818>.
20But Judah<3063> will be inhabited<3427> forever<5769> And Jerusalem<3389> for all<1755> generations<1755>.
21And I will avenge<5352> their blood<1818> which I have not avenged<5352>, For the LORD<3068> dwells<7931> in Zion<6726>.
