* The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines , before that Pharaoh smote Gaza . * Thus saith the LORD ; 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 cometh to spoil all the Philistines , and to cut off from Tyrus and Zidon every helper that remaineth : for the LORD will spoil the Philistines , the remnant of the country of Caphtor . * Baldness is come upon Gaza ; Ashkelon is cut off with the remnant of their valley : how long wilt thou cut thyself ? * O thou sword of the LORD , how long will it be ere thou be quiet ? put up thyself into thy scabbard ta #ar #, rest , and be still . * How can it be quiet , seeing the LORD hath given it a charge against Ashkelon #Ashq @lown #, and against the sea shore ? there hath he appointed it .
