1 That which° came° as the word° of the LORD° to Jeremiah° the prophet° concerning° the aPhilistines°, before° Pharaoh° Iconquered° bGaza°. 2 Thus° says° the LORD°:
  “Behold°, waters° are going to rise° from athe north°
  And become° an overflowing° torrent°,
  And boverflow° the land° and all° its fullness°,
  The city° and those who live° in it;
  And the men° will ccry° out,
  And every° inhabitant° of the land° will wail°.
  3 “Because° of the noise° of the Iagalloping° hoofs° of his IIstallions°,
  The tumult° of his chariots°, [and] the rumbling° of his wheels°,
  The fathers° have not turned° back° for [their] children°,
  Because° of the limpness° of [their] hands°,
  4 On account° of the day° that is coming°
  To adestroy° all° the Philistines°,
  To cut° off° from bTyre° and Sidon°
  Every° ally° that is left°;
  For the LORD° is going to destroy° the Philistines°,
  The remnant° of the coastland° of cCaphtor°.
  5aBaldness° has come° upon Gaza°;
  bAshkelon° has been ruined°.
  O remnant° of their valley°,
  How° long° will you cgash° yourself?
  6 “Ah°, asword° of the LORD°,
  How° long° will you not be quiet°?
  Withdraw° into your sheath°;
  Be at rest° and stay° still°.
  7 “How° can Iit be quiet°,
  When the LORD° has agiven° it an order°?
  Against° Ashkelon° and against° the seacoast°°
  There° He has bassigned° it.”

The destruction of the Philistines.

1 ¶ The wordº of the LORDº that² came² to² Jeremiahº the prophetº against² the Philistines,º before² that Pharaohº smoteºª² Gaza.º 2 Thus² saithºª the LORD;º Behold,² watersº rise upºª out of the north,º² and shall be² an overflowingºª flood,º and shall overflowºª the land,º and all² that is therein;¹ the city,º and them that dwellºª therein: then the menº shall cry,ºª and all² the inhabitantsºª of the landº shall howl.ºª 3 At the noiseº² of the stampingº of the hoofsº of his strongº [horses], at the rushingº² of his chariots,º [and at] the rumblingº of his wheels,º the fathersº shall not² look backºª to² [their] childrenº for feeblenessº² of hands;º 4 Because of² the dayº that comethºª to spoilºª² all² the Philistines,º [and] to cut offºª from Tyrusº and Zidonº every² helperºª that remaineth:º for² the LORDº will spoilºª² the Philistines,º the remnantº of the countryº of Caphtor.º 5 Baldnessº is comeºª upon² Gaza;º Ashkelonº is cut offºª [with] the remnantº of their valley:º how long²² wilt thou cut¹ª thyself?² 6 Oº thou swordº of the LORD,º how long²² [will it be] ereº thou be quiet?ºª put up¹ª thyself² into² thy scabbard,º rest,ºª and be still.ºª 7 How² can it be quiet,ºª seeing the LORDº hath given it a chargeºª against² Ashkelon,º and against² the seaº shore?º there² hath he appointedºª it.
