## Joel 3:3-4 in Context (Verses 1–7 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/joel/3/1) For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
 
 [2 ](/kjv/joel/3/2) I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and *for* my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
 
 [3 ](/kjv/joel/3/3) And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/joel/3/4) Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly *and* speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;
 
 [5 ](/kjv/joel/3/5) Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:*
 
 [6 ](/kjv/joel/3/6) The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.*
 
 [7 ](/kjv/joel/3/7) Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:
 
[Joel 2](/kjv/joel/2) [Amos 1](/kjv/amos/1)
