# Jeremiah 47 (New King James Version)
|
|
Judgment on Philistia
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 47
|
|
###### 1 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before Pharaoh attacked Gaza.
|
|
|
|
###### 2 Thus says the Lord:
|
|
"Behold, waters rise out 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 noise 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,
|
|
Lacking courage,
|
|
|
|
###### 4 Because of the day that comes to plunder all the Philistines,
|
|
To cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains;
|
|
For the Lord shall plunder the Philistines,
|
|
The remnant of the country of Caphtor.
|
|
|
|
###### 5 Baldness has come upon Gaza,
|
|
Ashkelon is cut off
|
|
_With_ the remnant of their valley.
|
|
How long will you cut yourself?
|
|
|
|
###### 6 "O you sword of the Lord,
|
|
How long until you are quiet?
|
|
Put yourself up into your scabbard,
|
|
Rest and be still!
|
|
|
|
###### 7 How can it be quiet,
|
|
Seeing the Lord has given it a charge
|
|
Against Ashkelon and against the seashore?
|
|
There He has appointed it."
