Jeremiah 47:4-6
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
4 Because of the day that is coming to destroy all the Philistines and to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains. For the Lord is destroying the Philistines, the remnant [still surviving] of the isle or coastland of Caphtor [where the Philistines originated].(A)
5 Baldness [as a token of mourning] will come upon Gaza; Ashkelon will be cut off and be dumb. O remnant of their valley and of the giants, how long will you gash yourselves [as a token of mourning]?
6 O you sword of the Lord, how long will it be before you are quiet? Put yourself into your scabbard; rest and be still.
