Berean Standard Bible
For
lo
, in those days ,
and in
that time, When I turn
back
`to'
the
captivity
of
Judah and Jerusalem,
“Yes
, in those days and at
that time, when I restore
Judah and Jerusalem from
captivity
,
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
.
I will
gather
all the nations and bring
them down to
the Valley of Jehoshaphat .
There
I will
enter
into
judgment
against
them concerning My people ,
My
inheritance ,
Israel, whom they have
scattered among the
nations as
they
divided
up
My land.
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.
They
cast
lots
for My people ;
they bartered
a boy
for a
prostitute
and sold a
girl
for wine to
drink.
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
.
Now
what do
you
have
against
Me, O Tyre, Sidon,
and all the
regions
of Philistia? Are you
rendering against
Me a
recompense
? If you
retaliate
against
Me, I will
swiftly
and
speedily
return
your recompense
upon
your heads
.
In
that
My silver and My
gold ye
took,
And My desirable
things
that
are
good,
Ye
have
brought
in
to your temples.
For
you
took
My silver and gold and carried
off
My finest
treasures
to your temples.
And
sons
of Judah ,
and sons
of
Jerusalem ,
Ye
have
sold
to the sons
of
Javan
, To put
them far off
from their border
.
You
sold
the
people
of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks
, to send
them far from their homeland
.
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,
Behold
, I will
rouse
them from
the places
to
which
you
sold them ;
I will
return
your recompense
upon
your heads.
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.
I
will
sell
your sons and daughters into the hands
of the people
of Judah, and they will
sell
them to the
Sabeans—to
a distant
nation .”
Indeed
, the
LORD
has
spoken.
Proclaim ye
this among nations ,
Sanctify
a
war ,
stir
up
the mighty ones,
Come
nigh,
come
up,
let all the men of war .
Proclaim this among the
nations :
“Prepare
for
war ;
rouse
the mighty men;
let all the men of war advance
and
attack!
Beat your ploughshares
to
swords ,
And your pruning -
hooks to
javelins,
Let the weak say, `
I `
am '
mighty.'
Beat your plowshares
into
swords and your pruning hooks into
spears.
Let the weak say, ‘
I am strong!’
Haste,
and
come in
, all ye
nations round
, And be
gathered
together,
Thither
cause
to
come
down ,
O
Jehovah,
Thy
mighty ones.
Come quickly
, all you
surrounding
nations, and gather
yourselves.
Bring
down Your
mighty ones ,
O
LORD
.
Wake
and
come
up
let the nations unto
the valley of Jehoshaphat, For there I sit to judge all the nations around
.
Let the nations be
roused
and
advance
to
the Valley of Jehoshaphat, for there I will
sit down
to judge all the nations on
every
side
.
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.
Swing
the
sickle, for the
harvest is
ripe.
Come, trample
the grapes
, for the
winepress
is full;
the
wine
vats
overflow
because

`is'
the day of Jehovah
in the valley of decision.

LORD

near
in the valley of decision.
Sun and moon have
been
black
, And stars have
gathered
up
their
shining
.

sun and moon will
grow
dark
, and the
stars will
no
longer
shine
.
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.
The
LORD
will
roar
from Zion and raise
His voice from
Jerusalem;
heaven
and earth will
tremble.
But
the
LORD
will
be
a refuge for
His people, a stronghold for
the
people
of Israel.
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.
Then
you
will
know
that I am the
LORD
your God, who
dwells
in Zion, My holy mountain .
Jerusalem will
be
holy, never
again to
be
overrun
by
foreigners
.
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
.
And in that day the mountains will
drip
with
sweet
wine
, and the hills will
flow with milk .
All the
streams of Judah will
run
with water, and a spring
will
flow
from the house of the LORD
to
water
the
Valley of Acacias
.
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
.
Egypt will
become
desolate
, and Edom a desert
wasteland
, because
of
the
violence done
to the
people
of Judah, in
whose land
they shed innocent
blood
.
And
Judah to
the
age
doth
dwell
, And Jerusalem to
generation and
generation.
But
Judah will
be
inhabited
forever
, and Jerusalem from
generation to
generation.
And
I have
declared
their blood innocent
, `That'
I did
not declare
innocent,
And
Jehovah
is
dwelling
in Zion !
For
I will
avenge
their blood, which
I have
not yet
avenged.”
For
the
LORD
dwells
in Zion .
