Joel 3:8 in Context — Joel 3

6 E vendestes os filhos de Judá e os filhos de Jerusalém aos filhos dos gregos, para os distanciar de sua pátria.

7 Eis que eu os levantarei do lugar para onde os vendestes, e retribuirei vosso pagamento sobre vossa cabeça.

8 E venderei vossos filhos e vossas filhas na mão dos filhos de Judá, e eles os venderão aos sabeus, uma nação distante; porque o SENHOR falou.

9 Proclamai isto entre as nações, convocai uma guerra; despertai aos guerreiros, acheguem-se, venham todos os homens de guerra.

10 Fazei espadas de vossas enxadas, e lanças de vossas foices; diga o fraco: Sou forte.
