In context
6 And the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem you have given for a price to the sons of the Greeks, to send them far away from their land:
7 See, I will have them moved from the place where you have sent them, and will let what you have done come back on your head;
8 I will give your sons and your daughters into the hands of the children of Judah for a price, and they will give them for a price to the men of Sheba, a nation far off: for the Lord has said it.
9 Give this out among the nations; make ready for war: get the strong men awake; let all the men of war come near, let them come up.
10 Get your plough-blades hammered into swords, and your vine-knives into spears: let the feeble say, I am strong.
11 Come quickly, all you nations round about, and get yourselves together there: make your strong ones come down, O Lord.
12 Let the nations be awake, and come to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there I will be seated as judge of all the nations round about.
