mkjv@Joel:3:1 @ For, behold, in those days and in that time, [when] I will bring again the exiles of Judah and Jerusalem,

mkjv@Joel:3:2 @ I will also gather all nations and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat. And I will fight with them there for My people and for My inheritance Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and divided My land.

mkjv@Joel:3:3 @ And they have cast lots for My people, and have given a boy for a prostitute, and sold a girl for wine, so that they might drink.

mkjv@Joel:3:4 @ Yea, and what [have] you to do with Me, O Tyre and Sidon, and all the borders of Philistia? [Will you] give Me a reward? And if you reward Me, swiftly and speedily I will turn your reward on your own head,

mkjv@Joel:3:5 @ because you have taken My silver and My gold, and have carried My good treasures into your temples.

mkjv@Joel:3:6 @ You have also sold the sons of Judah and the sons of Jerusalem to the sons of the Greeks, that you might remove them far from their border.

mkjv@Joel:3:7 @ Behold, I [am] rising them out of the place where you have sold them, and will turn your reward on your own head.

mkjv@Joel:3:8 @ And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off; for the LORD has spoken it.

mkjv@Joel:3:9 @ Proclaim this among the nations: Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up.

mkjv@Joel:3:10 @ Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weak say, I [am] strong.

mkjv@Joel:3:11 @ Gather yourselves and come, all you nations, and gather yourselves together all around; cause Your mighty ones to come down there, O LORD.

mkjv@Joel:3:12 @ Let the nations be awakened and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat; for there I will sit to judge all the nations all around.

mkjv@Joel:3:13 @ Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, come down; for the press is full; the vats overflow, for their wickedness is great.

mkjv@Joel:3:14 @ Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision; for the day of the LORD [is] near in the valley of decision!

mkjv@Joel:3:15 @ The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall gather in their light.

mkjv@Joel:3:16 @ The LORD shall also roar out of Zion and utter His voice from Jerusalem. And the heavens and the earth shall shake. But the LORD [will be] the hope of His people and the strength of the sons of Israel.
