8 I will let your sons and daughters be sold to the people of Judah; they will sell them to the far-off Sabeans. I, the Lord, have spoken.
9 “Make this announcement among the nations:‘Prepare for war;call your warriors;gather all your soldiers and march!
10 Hammer the points of your plows into swordsand your pruning knives into spears.Even the weak must fight.
11 Hurry and come,all you surrounding nations,and gather in the valley.’”Send down, O Lord, your army to attack them!
12 “The nations must get readyand come to the Valley of Judgment.There I, the Lord, will sit to judgeall the surrounding nations.
13 They are very wicked;cut them down like grainat harvest time;crush them as grapes are crushedin a full wine pressuntil the wine runs over.”
14 Thousands and thousandsare in the Valley of Judgment.It is there that the day of the Lordwill soon come.
