4 Moreover, what are you to Me, O (A)Tyre, Sidon and all the regions of (B)Philistia? Are you rendering Me a recompense? But if you do recompense Me, swiftly and speedily I will (C)return your recompense on your head. 5 Since you have (D)taken My silver and My gold, brought My precious (a)treasures to your temples, 6 and sold the (E)sons of Judah and Jerusalem to the (b)Greeks in order to remove them far from their territory, 7 behold, I am going to (F)arouse them from the place where you have sold them, and return your recompense on your head. 8 Also I will (G)sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they will sell them to the (H)Sabeans, to a distant nation,” for the Lord has spoken.
