that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines,
before that Pharaoh smote Gaza.Jeremiah 47
47:1 The word of that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines,
before that Pharaoh smote Gaza.
47:2 Thus saith ; 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 thee and shall
howl.
47:3 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;
47:4 Because of the day that cometh to spoil all the Philistines, and to cut off from
Tyrus and Zidon every helper that remaineth: for will spoil the Philistines, the
remnant of the country of Caphtor.
47:5 Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off with the remnant of their valley: how long wilt thou cut thyself?
47:6 O thou sword of , how long will it be ere thou be quiet? put up thyself into
thy scabbard, rest, and be still.
47:7 How can it be quiet, seeing hath given it a charge against Ashkelon, and
against the sea shore? there hath he appointed it.
