Joel 3:19 in Context — Joel 3

17 Y conoceréis que yo soy Jehová vuestro Dios, que habito en Sión, monte de mi santidad: y será Jerusalem santa, y extraños no pasarán más por ella.

18 Y será en aquel tiempo, que los montes destilarán mosto, y los collados fluirán leche, y por todos los arroyos de Judá correrán aguas: y saldrá una fuente de la casa de Jehová, y regará el valle de Sittim.

19 Egipto será destruído, y Edom será vuelto en asolado desierto, por la injuria hecha á los hijos de Judá: porque derramaron en su tierra la sangre inocente.

20 Mas Judá para siempre será habitada, y Jerusalem en generación y generación.

21 Y limpiaré la sangre de los que no limpié; y Jehová morará en Sión.
