THE Word of Yahuah that came to El-Yirmeyahu the prophet against the Pelishtiym, before that Phar'oh smote Gaza.
Thus says Yahuah; 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 the land shall howl.
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;
Because of the day that comes to spoil all the Pelishtiym, and to cut off from Tsor and Tsiydon every helper that remains: for Yahuah will spoil the Pelishtiym, the remnant of the country of Kaphtor.
Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashqelon is cut off with the remnant of their valley: how long will you cut yourself?
O sword of Yahuah, how long will it be ere you be quiet? put up yourself into your scabbard, rest, and be still.
How can it be quiet, seeing Yahuah has given it a charge against Ashqelon, and against the sea shore? There has he appointed it.
