Joel 3:4 in Context — Joel 3

2 Je rassemblerai toutes les nations, Et je les ferai descendre dans la vallée de Josaphat; Là, j’entrerai en jugement avec elles, Au sujet de mon peuple, d’Israël, mon héritage, Qu’elles ont dispersé parmi les nations, Et au sujet de mon pays qu’elles se sont partagé.

3 Ils ont tiré mon peuple au sort; Ils ont donné le jeune garçon pour une prostituée, Ils ont vendu la jeune fille pour du vin, et ils ont bu.

4 Que me voulez-vous, Tyr et Sidon, Et vous tous, districts des Philistins? Voulez-vous tirer vengeance de moi? Si vous voulez vous venger, Je ferai bien vite retomber votre vengeance sur vos têtes.

5 Vous avez pris mon argent et mon or; Et ce que j’avais de plus précieux et de plus beau, Vous l’avez emporté dans vos temples.

6 Vous avez vendu les enfants de Juda et de Jérusalem aux enfants de Javan, Afin de les éloigner de leur territoire.
