Jeremiah 47:4-7 ▼

4 On account of the day that is coming To destroy all the Philistines, To cut off from Tyre and Sidon Every ally that is left; For Yahweh is going to destroy the Philistines, The remnant of the coastland of Caphtor.

5 Baldness has come upon Gaza; Ashkelon has been ruined. O remnant of their valley, How long will you gash yourself?

6 Ah, sword of Yahweh, How long will you not be quiet? Withdraw into your sheath; Be at rest and stay still.

7 How can it be quiet? Yahweh has given it a command; Against Ashkelon and against the seacoast— There He has assigned it.”
