Joel 3:2-4
Lexham English Bible
2 I will gather all the nations, and I will bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat, and I will argue a case against them[a] there concerning my people and my inheritance Israel whom they have scattered among the nations, and my land that they have divided. 3 For my people they cast lots,[b] and they traded[c] the male child for the prostitute, and the female child they sold for wine and they drank it.
4 What are you to me, O Tyre and O Sidon, and all of the regions of Philistia? Are you repaying to me what is deserved? If you are recompensing me, I will return swiftly and quickly what you deserve on your head!

Joel 3:2-4
New King James Version
2 (A)I will also gather all nations,
And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat;
And I (B)will enter into judgment with them there
On account of My people, My heritage Israel,
Whom they have scattered among the nations;
They have also divided up My land.
3 They have (C)cast lots for My people,
Have given a boy as payment for a harlot,
And sold a girl for wine, that they may drink.
4 “Indeed, what have you to do with Me,
(D)O Tyre and Sidon, and all the coasts of Philistia?
Will you [a]retaliate against Me?
But if you [b]retaliate against Me,
Swiftly and speedily I will return your [c]retaliation upon your own head;
Gioele 3:2-4
Nuova Riveduta 2006
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,
