Jeremiah 47

1The wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 that came to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 against the PhilistinesH6430, before that PharaohH6547 smoteH5221 GazaH5804.1

2Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068; Behold, watersH4325 rise upH5927 out of the northH6828, and shall be an overflowingH7857 floodH5158, and shall overflowH7857 the landH776, and all that is thereinH4393; the cityH5892, and them that dwellH3427 therein: then the menH120 shall cryH2199, and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 shall howlH3213.2

3At the noiseH6963 of the stampingH8161 of the hoofsH6541 of his strongH47 horses, at the rushingH7494 of his chariotsH7393, and at the rumblingH1995 of his wheelsH1534, the fathersH1 shall not look backH6437 to their childrenH1121 for feeblenessH7510 of handsH3027;

4Because of the dayH3117 that comethH935 to spoilH7703 all the PhilistinesH6430, and to cut offH3772 from TyreH6865 and SidonH6721 every helperH5826 that remainethH8300: for YhwhH3068 will spoilH7703 the PhilistinesH6430, the remnantH7611 of the countryH339 of CaphtorH3731.3

5BaldnessH7144 is comeH935 upon GazaH5804; AshkelonH831 is cut offH1820 with the remnantH7611 of their valleyH6010: how long wilt thou cutH1413 thyself?

6OH1945 thou swordH2719 of YhwhH3068, how long will it be ereH3808 thou be quietH8252? put upH622 thyself into thy scabbardH8593, restH7280, and be stillH1826.4

7How can it be quietH8252, seeing YhwhH3068 hath given it a chargeH6680 against AshkelonH831, and against the seaH3220 shoreH2348? there hath he appointedH3259 it.5
