47 : 1 The word of theLordthat came to Jeremiah the prophetconcerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck downGaza.
47 : 2 Thus says theLord:Behold, waters are risingout of the north,and shall become an overflowing torrent;they shall overflowthe land and all that fills it,the city and those who dwell in it.Men shall cry out,and every inhabitant of the land shall wail.
47 : 3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his stallions,at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of their wheels,the fatherslook not back to their children,so feeble are their hands,
47 : 4 because of the day that is coming to destroyallthe Philistines,to cut off fromTyre and Sidonevery helper that remains.For theLordis destroying the Philistines,the remnant of the coastland ofCaphtor.
47 : 5 Baldness has come upon Gaza;Ashkelon has perished.O remnant of their valley,how long will you gash yourselves?
47 : 6 Ah, sword of theLord!How long till you are quiet?Put yourself into your scabbard;rest and be still!
47 : 7 How can itbe quietwhen theLordhas given it a charge?AgainstAshkelon and against the seashorehe has appointed it.
