3 For my people they cast lots, and they traded 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!
5 For you have taken my silver and my gold, and my beautiful treasures you have carried into your temples.
6 And the sons of Judah and Jerusalem you sold to the sons of the Greeks, in order to remove them from their border.
7 Look! I am rousing them from the place where you have sold them, and I will return what you deserve on your head!
8 I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans and to a nation far away, for Yahweh has spoken.
9 Proclaim this among the nations: Prepare for war! Stir up the mighty warriors; let them approach and come up; let all the men of war approach.
