Judgment on Philistia
1 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet aagainst the Philistines, bbefore Pharaoh attacked Gaza.
2 Thus says the Lord:
“Behold, awaters rise bout of the north,
And shall be an overflowing flood;
They shall overflow the land and all that is in it,
The city and those who dwell within;
Then the men shall cry,
And all the inhabitants of the land shall wail.
“Behold, awaters rise bout of the north,
And shall be an overflowing flood;
They shall overflow the land and all that is in it,
The city and those who dwell within;
Then the men shall cry,
And all the inhabitants of the land shall wail.
3 At the anoise of the stamping hooves of his strong horses,
At the rushing of his chariots,
At the rumbling of his wheels,
The fathers will not look back for their children,
1Lacking courage,
At the rushing of his chariots,
At the rumbling of his wheels,
The fathers will not look back for their children,
1Lacking courage,
4 Because of the day that comes to plunder all the aPhilistines,
To cut off from bTyre and Sidon every helper who remains;
For the Lord shall plunder the Philistines,
cThe remnant of the country of dCaphtor.
To cut off from bTyre and Sidon every helper who remains;
For the Lord shall plunder the Philistines,
cThe remnant of the country of dCaphtor.
