Jeremiah 47

47:1And the word of the lord came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before the striking of Pharaoh of Gaza.

47:2Thus says the lord, Behold, waters ascend from the north, and will be for a rushing stream, flooding. And it shall flood the land, and the fullness of it; the city and the ones dwelling in it. And the men shall cry out, and the ones dwelling in the land shall shout all together

47:3from the sound of his thrust, from the hoofs of his feet, and from the quake of his chariots, the sound of his wheels. Fathers did not turn unto their sons because of the feebleness of their hands,

47:4in the day, in the coming one, to destroy all the Philistines, and to obliterate Tyre and Sidon and all the rest of their helpers, for the lord will utterly destroy the Philistines of the remnants of the islands of Cappadocia.

47:5Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon was thrown away, and the remnant of the Anakim.

47:6How long will you smite, sword of the the lord? Until when will you not be still? Restore it unto your sheath! Cause it to rest and be lifted away!

47:7How shall it be quiet, and the lord gave charge to it against Ashkelon, and against the places by the sea, for the remnant to be roused.
