AMP JOE 3:1 FOR BEHOLD, in those days and at that time when I shall reverse the captivity and restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
AMP JOE 3:2 I will gather all nations and will bring them down into the Valley of Jehoshaphat, and there will I deal with and execute judgment upon them for [their treatment of] My people and of My heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations and [because] they have divided My land.
AMP JOE 3:3 And they have cast lots for My people, and have given a boy for a harlot and have sold a girl for juice [of the grape] and have drunk it.
AMP JOE 3:4 Yes, and what are you to Me, O Tyre and Sidon and all the [five small] divisions of Philistia? Will you pay Me back for something? Even if you pay Me back, swiftly and speedily I will return your deed [of retaliation] upon your own head, [Isa 23; Ezek 26:1-18; Amos 1:6-10; Zeph 2:4-7; Zech 9:2-7]
AMP JOE 3:5 Because you have taken My silver and My gold and have carried into your temples and palaces My precious treasures,
AMP JOE 3:6 And have sold the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem to the sons of the Grecians, that you may remove them far from their border.
AMP JOE 3:7 Behold, I will stir them up out of the place to which you have sold them and will return your deed [of retaliation] upon your own head.
AMP JOE 3:8 I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a nation far off, for the Lord has spoken it. [Isa 14:2; 60:14]
AMP JOE 3:9 Proclaim this among the nations: Prepare war! Stir up the mighty men! Let all the men of war draw near, let them come up.
AMP JOE 3:10 Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears; let the weak say, I am strong [a warrior]! [Isa 2:4; Mic 4:3]
AMP JOE 3:11 Hasten and come, all you nations round about, and assemble yourselves; there You, O Lord, will bring down Your mighty ones (Your warriors).
AMP JOE 3:12 Let the nations bestir themselves and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat, for there will I sit to judge all the nations round about.
AMP JOE 3:13 Put in the sickle, for the [vintage] harvest is ripe; come, get down and tread the grapes, for the winepress is full; the vats overflow, for the wickedness [of the peoples] is great. [Mark 4:29; Rev 14:15, 18-20]
AMP JOE 3:14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision. [Zech 14:1-9]
AMP JOE 3:15 The sun and the moon are darkened and the stars withdraw their shining.
AMP JOE 3:16 The Lord will thunder and roar from Zion and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but the Lord will be a refuge for His people and a stronghold to the children of Israel. [Amos 9:11-15; Mic 4:1-3; 5:2; Zeph 3:13-20; Zech 6:12, 13; 12:8, 9]
AMP JOE 3:17 So shall you know, understand, and realize that I am the Lord your God, dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain. Then shall Jerusalem be holy, and strangers and foreigners [not born into the family of God] shall no more pass through it.
AMP JOE 3:18 And in that day, the mountains shall drip with fresh juice [of the grape] and the hills shall flow with milk; and all the brooks and riverbeds of Judah shall flow with water, and a fountain shall come forth from the house of the Lord and shall water the Valley of Shittim. [Ezek 47:1-12; Amos 9:13; Zech 14:8]
AMP JOE 3:19 Egypt shall be a desolation and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness for their violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
AMP JOE 3:20 But Judah shall remain and be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
AMP JOE 3:21 And I will cleanse and hold as innocent their blood and avenge it, blood which I have not cleansed, held innocent, and avenged, for the Lord dwells in Zion.
