2 I will gather together all Nations, and will lead them into the valley of Josaphat: and I will plead with them there upon my people, and mine inheritance Israel, whom they have dispersed in the nations, and have divided my land.📜💬📚

3 And upon my people they have cast lot: & boy they have given to be a strumpet, and wench they have sold for wine, that they might drink.📜💬📚

4 But what is to me and to you o Tyre, and Sidon, and all the border of the Palesthines? What, will you render me revenge, and if you do revenge against me, I will soon render you quickly recompense upon your head.📜💬📚

5 For my silver, and my gold you have taken: and my desirable things, and most beautiful you have carried into your temples.📜💬📚

6 And the children of Jerusalem you have sold to the children of the Greeks, that you might make them far off from their coasts.📜💬📚

7 Behold I will raise them up out of the place, wherein you have sold them: and I will turn your retribution upon your own head.📜💬📚

8 And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hands of the children of Juda, and they shall sell them to the Sabaeans, a nation far off, because our Lord hath spoken.📜💬📚

9 Proclaim ye this in the Gentiles: sanctify battle, raise up the strong: let them come, let all the men of war come up.📜💬📚

10 Cut your ploughs into swords, and your spades into spears. Let the weak say: That I am strong.📜💬📚

11 Break out, and come all ye nations from round about, and be gathered together: there will our Lord make all thy strong ones to be slain.📜💬📚

12 Let them arise, & let the Gentiles ascend into the valley of Josaphat: because there I will sit, to judge all nations round about.📜💬📚

13 Put in the sithes, because the harvest is ripe: come, and descend, because the press is full, the presses run over: because their malice is multiplied.📜💬📚

14 Peoples, peoples in the valley of concision, because the day of our Lord is nigh in the valley of concision.📜💬📚

15 The sun and the moon are darkened, & the stars have withdrawn their shining.📜💬📚

16 And our Lord will roar out of Sion, and out of Jerusalem he will give his voice: and the heavens, and the earth shall be moved, and our Lord the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.📜💬📚

Blessings for God's People

17 And you shall know that I am the Lord your God dwelling in Sion my holy mount: and Jerusalem shall be holy, and strangers shall pass through it no more.📜💬📚

18 And it shall be in that day: the mountains shall distill sweetness, and the hills shall flow with milk: and through all the rivers of Juda shall run waters: and a fountain shall issue out of the house of the Lord, and shall water the torrent of thorns.📜💬📚

19 AEgypt shall be into desolation, & Idumea into a desert of perdition, for that they have done unjustly against the children of Juda, and have shed innocent blood in their land.📜💬📚

20 And Jewry shall be inhabited for ever, and Jerusalem unto generation and generation.📜💬📚

21 And I will cleanse their blood, which I had not cleansed: and the Lord will dwell in Sion.📜💬📚
