III] :And will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel,
 * Whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
 * And they have cast lots for my people:
 * And have given a boy for an harlot,
 * And sold a girl for wine, that they might drink.
 * Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon,
 * And all the coasts of Palestine?
 * Will ye render me a recompence?
 * And if ye recompense me,
 * Swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;
 * Because ye have taken my silver and my gold,
 * And have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:
 * The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians,
 * That ye might remove them far from their border.
 * Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them,
 * And will return your recompence upon your own head:
 * And I will sell your sons and your daughters
 * Into the hand of the children of Judah,
 * And they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off:
 * For the Lord hath spoken it.
