7 Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:
7 "See, I am going to rouse them out of the places to which you sold them, and I will return on your own heads what you have done.
7 Behold, I will stir them up from the place to which you have sold them, and I will return your payment on your own head.
7 But I'm going to reverse your crime. I'm going to free those slaves. I'll have done to you what you did to them:
7 "Behold, I will raise them Out of the place to which you have sold them, And will return your retaliation upon your own head.
7 "But I will bring them back from all the places to which you sold them, and I will pay you back for everything you have done.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Joel 3:7
Commentary on Joel 3:1-8
(Read Joel 3:1-8)

The contempt and scorn with which the Jews have often been treated as a people, and the little value set upon them, are noticed. None ever hardened his heart against God or his church, and prospered long.
