Joel 3:10-12
Easy-to-Read Version
10 Beat your plows into swords.
Make spears from your pruning hooks.[a]
Let the weak man say,
“I am a strong soldier.”
11 All you nations, hurry!
Come together in that place.
Lord, bring your strong soldiers.
12 Wake up, nations!
Come to Jehoshaphat Valley.
There I will sit to judge
all the surrounding nations.
