Zephaniah 2:5-7

5Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast, The nation of the 12Cherethites! The word of the Lord is 3against you, 4Canaan, land of the Philistines; And I will 5eliminate you So that there will be 6no inhabitant.6So the seacoast will become 7grazing places, With pastures for shepherds and folds for flocks.7And the coast will be For the 8remnant of the house of Judah, They will 9drive sheep to pasture on it. In the houses of Ashkelon they will lie down at evening; For the Lord their God will 10care for them And 11restore their fortunes.
