4 Moreover, what are you to Me, Tyre and Sidon, and all the circuit of Philistia? Are you repaying Me a requital? And, if you be requiting Me speedily, hastily will I reverse your requital on your head,
5 you who have taken My silver and My gold, and have brought My coveted good things to your temples."
6 And the sons of Judah and the sons of Jerusalem you sell to the sons of the Grecians, that you may put them far from their boundary."
7 Behold Me rousing them from the place where you sell them. I reverse your requital on your head,
8 and I sell your sons and your daughters, into the hands of the sons of Judah, and they sell them into captivity, to a nation afar, for Yahweh speaks."
9 Proclaim this among the nations! Hallow a war! Rouse the masters! All the mortals of war shall come close and ascend.
10 Pound your mattocks into swords and your pruning hooks into lances! The defeatist shall say, a master am I!"
11 Mobilize and come, all nations from round about! And they are convened. There, Yahweh, settle Your masters!"
12 All the nations shall rouse and ascend to the vale of Jehoshaphat. For there will I sit to judge all the nations from round about.
13 Send forth the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, tread, for the wine trough is full, the wine vats run over, for great is their evil."
14 Throngs, throngs in the vale of decision! For near is the day of Yahweh in the vale of decision!"
15 The sun and the moon are somber, and the stars gather in their brightness."
16 And Yahweh shall roar from Zion, and from Jerusalem shall He give forth His voice, and the heavens and the earth shall quake. Yet Yahweh is a refuge for His people, and a stronghold for the sons of Israel."
17 And you shall know that I am Yahweh, your Elohim, tabernacling in Zion, My holy mountain. And Jerusalem shall come to be a holy city, and aliens shall pass in her no longer."
18 And it shall come in that day, the mountains shall drop with juice, and the hills shall flow with milk. All the channels of Judah shall flow with water, and a spring from the house of Yahweh shall fare forth, and it irrigates the watercourse Shittim."
19 Egypt shall become a desolation, and Edom shall become a wilderness desolation because of wrong done to the sons of Judah--when they shed innocent blood in their land."
20 And Judah shall dwell for the eon, and Jerusalem for generation after generation."
21 And I will avenge their blood, and will not hold the others innocent, when Yahweh shall tabernacle in Zion."
