ylt @Joel:3:1 @For lo , in those days , and in that time , When I turn back [to ] the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem , ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 , ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel:3:10 @Beat your ploughshares to swords , And your pruning-hooks to javelins , Let the weak say , 'I [am ] mighty .' ylt @Joel:3:11 @Haste , and come in , all ye nations round , And be gathered together , Thither cause to come down , O Jehovah , Thy mighty ones . ylt @Joel:3:12 @Wake and come up let the nations unto the valley of Jehoshaphat , For there I sit to judge all the nations around . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel:3:14 @Multitudes , multitudes [are ] in the valley of decision , For near [is ] the day of Jehovah in the valley of decision . ylt @Joel:3:15 @Sun and moon have been black , And stars have gathered up their shining . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel: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 . ylt @Joel:3:20 @And Judah to the age doth dwell , And Jerusalem to generation and generation . ylt @Joel:3:21 @And I have declared their blood innocent , [That ] I did not declare innocent , And Jehovah is dwelling in Zion !
