Joel 3:6 Context
4Yea and what haue ye to do with me, O Tyre and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render mee a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I returne your recompense vpon your owne head. 5Because yee haue taken my siluer and my gold, and haue caried into your temples my goodly pleasant things. 6The children also of Iudah and the children of Ierusalem haue ye sold vnto the Grecians, that yee might remoue them farre from their border. 7Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither yee haue sold them, and wil returne your recompence vpon your owne head. 8And I will sell your sonnes and your daughters into the hande of the children of Iudah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people farre off, for the Lord hath spoken it.
