And if ye recompense me, I will return your recompense swiftly and speedily upon your own head. Inasmuch as ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly precious things, and have sold the sons of Judah and the sons of Jerusalem to the sons of the Grecians, that ye may remove them far from their border, read more.
behold, I will stir them up out of the place where ye have sold them, and will return your recompense upon your own head. And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they shall sell them to the men of Sheba, to a nation far off. For LORD has spoken it.
