Zephaniah 2:4-6

Common English Bible

⁴ Gaza will certainly be abandoned;
        and Ashkelon destroyed.
Ashdod will be driven out at noon;
        Ekron will be uprooted.
⁵ Doom, inhabitants of the seacoast,
        nation of Cretans.
The Lord’s word is against you,
        Canaan, land of the Philistines.
I will exterminate you, leaving no inhabitant.
⁶ The seacoast will become pastureland,
        with wells for shepherds and pens for the flocks.
