Joel 3:5

Yahweh's Judgment On The Nations

⁴ Moreover, what are you to Me, O Tyre and Sidon and all the [five small] regions of Philistia? Will you pay Me back for something [I have supposedly done to you]? Even if you do pay Me back, I will swiftly and speedily return your deed [of retaliation] on your own head. ⁵ Because you have taken My silver and My gold and have carried My precious treasures to your temples and palaces, ⁶ and have sold the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem to the Greeks, so that you may send them far away from their territory,
