The Nations Judged
3 [a]“In those days and at that time,
when I restore the fortunes(A) of Judah(B) and Jerusalem,
2 I will gather(C) all nations
and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.[b](D)
There I will put them on trial(E)
for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel,
because they scattered(F) my people among the nations
and divided up my land.
3 They cast lots(G) for my people
and traded boys for prostitutes;
they sold girls for wine(H) to drink.
4 “Now what have you against me, Tyre and Sidon(I) and all you regions of Philistia?(J) Are you repaying me for something I have done? If you are paying me back, I will swiftly and speedily return on your own heads what you have done.(K) 5 For you took my silver and my gold and carried off my finest treasures to your temples.[c](L) 6 You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks,(M) that you might send them far from their homeland.
7 “See, I am going to rouse them out of the places to which you sold them,(N) and I will return(O) on your own heads what you have done. 8 I will sell your sons(P) and daughters to the people of Judah,(Q) and they will sell them to the Sabeans,(R) a nation far away.” The Lord has spoken.(S)
9 Proclaim this among the nations:
Prepare for war!(T)
Rouse the warriors!(U)
Let all the fighting men draw near and attack.
10 Beat your plowshares into swords
and your pruning hooks(V) into spears.(W)
Let the weakling(X) say,
“I am strong!”(Y)
11 Come quickly, all you nations from every side,
and assemble(Z) there.
Bring down your warriors,(AA) Lord!
12 “Let the nations be roused;
let them advance into the Valley of Jehoshaphat,(AB)
for there I will sit
to judge(AC) all the nations on every side.
13 Swing the sickle,(AD)
for the harvest(AE) is ripe.
Come, trample the grapes,(AF)
for the winepress(AG) is full
and the vats overflow—
so great is their wickedness!”
14 Multitudes,(AH) multitudes
in the valley(AI) of decision!
For the day of the Lord(AJ) is near
in the valley of decision.(AK)
15 The sun and moon will be darkened,
and the stars no longer shine.(AL)
16 The Lord will roar(AM) from Zion
and thunder from Jerusalem;(AN)
the earth and the heavens will tremble.(AO)
But the Lord will be a refuge(AP) for his people,
a stronghold(AQ) for the people of Israel.
Blessings for God’s People
17 “Then you will know(AR) that I, the Lord your God,(AS)
dwell in Zion,(AT) my holy hill.(AU)
Jerusalem will be holy;(AV)
never again will foreigners invade her.(AW)
18 “In that day the mountains will drip new wine,(AX)
and the hills will flow with milk;(AY)
all the ravines of Judah will run with water.(AZ)
A fountain will flow out of the Lord’s house(BA)
and will water the valley of acacias.[d](BB)
19 But Egypt(BC) will be desolate,
Edom(BD) a desert waste,
because of violence(BE) done to the people of Judah,
in whose land they shed innocent blood.
20 Judah will be inhabited forever(BF)
and Jerusalem through all generations.
21 Shall I leave their innocent blood unavenged?(BG)
No, I will not.(BH)”
The Lord dwells in Zion!(BI)

Giudizio delle nazioni
3 (A)«Infatti ecco, in quei giorni, in quel tempo, quando ricondurrò dall’esilio quelli di Giuda e di Gerusalemme,
2 io adunerò tutte le nazioni e le farò scendere nella valle di Giosafat[a]. Là le chiamerò in giudizio a proposito della mia eredità, il popolo d’Israele, che esse hanno disperso tra le nazioni, e del mio paese, che hanno spartito fra di loro.
3 Hanno tirato a sorte il mio popolo; hanno dato un ragazzino in cambio di una prostituta, hanno venduto una ragazzina per del vino e si sono messi a bere.
4 Anche voi, Tiro, Sidone e tutta quanta la Filistia, che cosa pretendete da me? Volete darmi una retribuzione, o volete fare del male contro di me? Subito, in un attimo, io farò ricadere la vostra retribuzione sul vostro capo,
5 perché avete preso il mio argento e il mio oro, avete portato nei vostri templi i miei tesori più preziosi
6 e avete venduto ai figli di Iavan i figli di Giuda e i figli di Gerusalemme, per allontanarli dalla loro patria.
7 Ecco, io li richiamo dal luogo dove voi li avete venduti e farò ricadere le vostre colpe sul vostro capo.
8 Venderò i vostri figli e le vostre figlie ai Giudei, che li venderanno ai Sabei, nazione lontana»; perché il Signore ha parlato.
9 Proclamate questo fra le nazioni! Preparate la guerra! Risvegliate i prodi! Vengano e salgano tutti gli uomini di guerra!
10 Fabbricate spade con i vostri vomeri e lance con le vostre roncole! Dica il debole: «Sono forte!»
11 Affrettatevi, venite, nazioni circostanti, e adunatevi! Là, o Signore, fa’ scendere i tuoi prodi!
12 «Le nazioni si muovano e vengano alla valle di Giosafat! perché là io mi metterò seduto per giudicare tutte le nazioni circostanti.
13 Date mano alla falce, perché la mèsse è matura[b]! Venite, pigiate, poiché il torchio è pieno, i tini traboccano; poiché grande è la loro malvagità».
14 C’è una folla, una moltitudine, nella valle del Giudizio! Perché il giorno del Signore è vicino, nella valle del Giudizio.
15 Il sole e la luna si oscurano e le stelle perdono il loro splendore.
16 Il Signore ruggirà da Sion, farà sentire la sua voce da Gerusalemme, e i cieli e la terra tremeranno; ma il Signore sarà un rifugio per il suo popolo, una fortezza per i figli d’Israele.
17 «Voi saprete che io sono il Signore, il vostro Dio; io dimoro in Sion, il mio monte santo. Gerusalemme sarà santa e gli stranieri non vi passeranno più.
18 (B)«Quel giorno le montagne stilleranno mosto, il latte scorrerà dai colli e l’acqua fluirà da tutti i ruscelli di Giuda; dalla casa del Signore sgorgherà una fonte che irrigherà la valle di Sittim.
19 L’Egitto sarà desolato e Edom diventerà uno squallido deserto a causa della violenza fatta ai figli di Giuda e del sangue innocente sparso sulla loro terra.
20 Ma Giuda sarà abitata per sempre, e Gerusalemme di età in età.
21 Io vendicherò il loro sangue, quello che non ho ancora vendicato». E il Signore dimorerà in Sion.

Die Ausgießung des Geistes Gottes auf das Volk
3 Und nach diesem wird es geschehen, dass ich meinen Geist ausgieße über alles Fleisch; und eure Söhne und eure Töchter werden weissagen, eure Ältesten werden Träume haben, eure jungen Männer werden Gesichte sehen;
2 und auch über die Knechte und über die Mägde will ich in jenen Tagen meinen Geist ausgießen;
3 und ich werde Zeichen geben am Himmel und auf Erden: Blut und Feuer und Rauchsäulen;
4 die Sonne soll verwandelt werden in Finsternis und der Mond in Blut, ehe der große und schreckliche Tag des Herrn kommt.
5 Und es wird geschehen: Jeder, der den Namen des Herrn anruft, wird gerettet werden; denn auf dem Berg Zion und in Jerusalem wird Errettung sein, wie der Herr verheißen hat, und bei den Übriggebliebenen, die der Herr beruft.

A Lélek kitöltése
3 Azután kitöltöm majd lelkemet minden emberre. Fiaitok és leányaitok prófétálni fognak, véneitek álmokat álmodnak, ifjaitok látomásokat látnak.
2 Még a szolgákra és szolgálókra is kitöltöm lelkemet abban az időben.
3 Csodás jeleket mutatok az égen és a földön: vért, tüzet és füstoszlopokat.
4 A nap elsötétül, a hold vérvörös lesz, mielőtt eljön az Úr nagy és félelmetes napja.
5 De megmenekül mindenki, aki segítségül hívja az Úr nevét, mert a Sion hegyén és Jeruzsálemben lesz a menedék az Úr ígérete szerint, és azok menekülnek meg, akiket elhív az Úr.

3 For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
3 And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink.
4 Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;
5 Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:
6 The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.
7 Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:
8 And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the Lord hath spoken it.
9 Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:
10 Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.
11 Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O Lord.
12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.
13 Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.
14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
15 The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.
16 The Lord also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the Lord will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.
17 So shall ye know that I am the Lord your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.
18 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow with waters, and a fountain shall come forth out of the house of the Lord, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
19 Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
20 But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
21 For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the Lord dwelleth in Zion.
