Jeremiah 47

CAB(i) 1 Thus says the Lord against the Philistines: 2 Behold, waters come up from the north, and shall become a sweeping torrent, and it shall sweep away the land, and its fulness. The city, and them that dwell in it; and men shall cry and all that dwell in the land shall howl, 3 at the sound of his rushing, at the sound of his hoofs, and at the rattling of his chariots, at the noise of his wheels. The fathers turned not to their children because of the weakness of their hands, 4 in the day that is coming to destroy all the Philistines. And I will utterly destroy Tyre and Sidon and all the rest of their allies; for the Lord will destroy the remaining inhabitants of the islands. 5 Baldness has come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cast away, and the remnant of the Enakim. 6 How long will you smite, O sword of the Lord? How long will it be till you are quiet? Return into your sheath, rest, and be removed. 7 How shall it be quiet, seeing the Lord has given it a commission against Ashkelon, and against the regions on the sea coast, to awake against the remaining countries!
