Seek Adonai, all you humble of the land
who have executed His judgment.
Seek righteousness; seek meekness![a]
Perhaps you will be hidden
    on the day of Adonai’s wrath.
For Gaza will be abandoned
and Ashkelon will be a wasteland.
Ashdod will be driven out at noon
and Ekron will be uprooted.
Oy to the inhabitants of the seacoast,
    the nation of Cherethites!
The word of Adonai is against you,
    Canaan, the land of the Philistines,
and I will destroy you
    until there is no inhabitant.
