God’s Message to Philistia

²⁸ This message^[a] was given to me the year King Ahaz died^[b]:

²⁹ Country of Philistia, don’t be happy that the king who beat you is now dead. It is true that his rule has ended, but his son will come and rule. It will be like one snake giving birth to a more dangerous one. The new king will be like a quick and dangerous snake to you.
