Word Against Philistia
47 That which came as the word of Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the (A)Philistines, before Pharaoh struck down (B)Gaza. 2 Thus says Yahweh:
“Behold, waters are going to rise from (C)the north
And become an overflowing torrent,
And (D)overflow the land as well as its fullness,
The city and those who inhabit it;
And the men will (E)cry out,
And every inhabitant of the land will wail.
3 Because of the noise of the [a](F)galloping hoofs of his [b]valiant steeds,
The quaking of his chariots, and the tumult of his wheels,
The fathers have not turned back for their children,
Because of the limpness of their hands,
4 On account of the day that is coming
To (G)destroy all the Philistines,
To cut off from (H)Tyre and Sidon
Every ally that is left;
For Yahweh is going to destroy the Philistines,
The remnant of the coastland of (I)Caphtor.
5 (J)Baldness has come upon Gaza;
(K)Ashkelon has been ruined.
O remnant of their valley,
How long will you (L)gash yourself?
6 Ah, (M)sword of Yahweh,
How long will you not be quiet?
Withdraw into your sheath;
[c]Be at rest and stay still.
7 How can [d]it be quiet?
Yahweh has (N)given it a command;
Against Ashkelon and against the seacoast—
There He has (O)assigned it.”
