          DASV: Jeremiah 47    

1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning
the Philistines, before Pharaoh attacked Gaza.
2 "This is what the LORD says:
     Look, waters are rising out of the north,
           and it will become an overflowing flood.
     It will overflow the land and everything in it,
           the city and those who live there.
     The people will cry out,
           and all the inhabitants of the land will wail,
3 at the noise of the stomping of their stallions hoofs,
     at the rushing of their chariots,
           at the rumbling of their wheels.
      Even parents will not look back to their children
           because their hands fall helplessly limp.
4 For the day is coming that will destroy all the Philistines,
          and cut off from Tyre and Sidon every ally who is left.
      For the LORD will destroy the Philistines,
          the remnant of the island of Crete.
5 Gaza will shave its head in despair;
     Ashkelon will be silenced.
     O remnant of their coastal plain,
           how long will you slash yourself?
6 O sword of the LORD,
          how long will it be until you are quieted?
      Put yourself back into your sheath;
          rest and be still.
7 How can you be quiet,
          seeing the LORD has given you an order?
     He has assigned it,
          against Ashkelon and against the seacoast."
