Joel 3:2-14

I will gather all the nations together and bring them down into the Valley Where the LORD Judges. There I will judge them, because those nations scattered my own people Israel and forced them to live in other nations. They divided up my land and threw lots for my people. They traded boys for prostitutes, and they sold girls to buy wine to drink. “Tyre and Sidon and all of you regions of Philistia! What did you have against me? Were you punishing me for something I did, or were you doing something to hurt me? I will very quickly do to you what you have done to me. You took my silver and gold, and you put my precious treasures in your temples. You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks so that you could send them far from their land. “You sent my people to that faraway place, but I will get them and bring them back, and I will do to you what you have done to them. I will sell your sons and daughters to the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabean people far away.” The LORD said this. Announce this among the nations: Prepare for war! Wake up the soldiers! Let all the men of war come near and attack. Make swords from your plows, and make spears from your hooks for trimming trees. Let even the weak person say, “I am a soldier.” All of you nations, hurry, and come together in that place. LORD, send your soldiers to gather the nations. “Wake up, nations, and come to attack in the Valley Where the LORD Judges. There I will sit to judge all the nations on every side. Swing the cutting tool, because the harvest is ripe. Come, walk on them as you would walk on grapes to get their juice, because the winepress is full and the barrels are spilling over, because these people are so evil!” There are huge numbers of people in the Valley of Decision, because the LORD’s day of judging is near in the Valley of Decision.
