Zephaniah 2:4-6

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁴ For Gaza will be abandoned,
and Ashkelon will become a ruin.
Ashdod will be driven out at noon,
and Ekron will be uprooted.^(A)
5 Woe, inhabitants of the seacoast,
nation of the Cherethites!^[a](B)
The word of the Lord is against you,
Canaan, land of the Philistines:
I will destroy you until there is no one left.
⁶ The seacoast will become pasturelands
with caves for shepherds and folds for sheep.
