Jeremiah 47
1¶ The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Palestinians, before Pharaoh smote Gaza.
2Thus hath the Lord said: 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 cities and those that dwell therein; then the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl.
3At 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;
4because of the day that comes to destroy all the Palestinians, and to cut off from Tyre and Zidon every helper that remains: for the Lord will destroy the Palestinians, the remnant of the island of Caphtor.
5Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off with the remnant of their valley: how long wilt thou cut thyself?
6O thou sword of the Lord, how long will it be ere thou be quiet? put up thyself into thy scabbard, rest, and be still.
7How can it be quiet, seeing the Lord has given it a charge against Ashkelon and against the sea shore? there has he appointed it.
