1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremi­ah the prophet against the Philistines, be­fore that Pharaoh smote Gaza. 2 Thus saith the LORD; Be­hold, wa­ters rise up out of the north, and shall be an over­flow­ing flood, and shall over­flow the land, and all that is there­in; the city, and them that dwell there­in: then the men shall cry, and all the in­hab­i­tants of the land shall howl. 3 At the noise of the stamp­ing of the hoofs of his strong horses, at the rush­ing of his char­i­ots, and at the rum­bling of his wheels, the fa­thers shall not look back to their chil­dren for fee­ble­ness of hands; 4 Be­cause of the day that cometh to spoil all the Philistines, and to cut off from Tyrus and Zi­don ev­ery helper that re­maineth: for the LORD will spoil the Philistines, the rem­nant of the coun­try of Caph­tor. 5 Bald­ness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off with the rem­nant of their val­ley: how long wilt thou cut thy­self? 6 O thou sword of the LORD, how long will it be ere thou be qui­et? put up thy­self into thy scab­bard, rest, and be still. 7 How can it be qui­et, see­ing the LORD hath giv­en it a charge against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? there hath he ap­point­ed it.
