Yahweh's Judgment On The Nations

1 For look! In those days and at that time I will return the exiles to Judah and Jerusalem. 2 Then I will gather all the nations, and bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. I will enter into judgment against them there concerning my people Israel who are my inheritance, whom they scattered among the nations. They partitioned my land, 3 and they cast lots for my people. They traded a boy for a prostitute; they sold a little girl for wine so they could drink.
