Punishment for Judah’s Enemies

[L For look/T behold] In those days and at that time,
    when I will ·make things better for [restore the fortunes of; or return the exiles/captives of] Judah and Jerusalem,
I will gather all the nations together
    and bring them down into the Valley ·Where the Lord Judges [L of Jehoshaphat; C Jehoshaphat means “the Lord judges”].
    There I will ·judge [enter into judgment against] them,
because those nations scattered my ·own people [L people, my heritage] Israel
    ·and forced them to live in other [L among the] nations.
They divided up my land
and ·threw [T cast] lots for my people.
They traded boys for prostitutes,
and they sold girls to buy wine to ·drink [get drunk].
