Judging the Nations

In those days and at that time,
    when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
I will gather all the nations,
    and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.
I will enter into judgment with them there
    regarding My people and My heritage Israel,
whom they have scattered among the nations;
    they have also divided up My land.

because they scattered(F) my people among the nations
    and divided up my land.
