(A)Seek the Lord, (B)all you humble of the land,
    who do his just commands;[a]
(C)seek righteousness; seek humility;
    (D)perhaps (E)you may be hidden
    on the day of the anger of the Lord.
(F)For Gaza shall be deserted,
    and Ashkelon shall become a desolation;
Ashdod's people shall be driven out at noon,
    and Ekron shall be uprooted.

Woe to (G)you inhabitants of the seacoast,
    you nation of (H)the Cherethites!
(I)The word of the Lord is against you,
    (J)O Canaan, land of the Philistines;
    and I will destroy you (K)until no inhabitant is left.
