1 The word 1697 of the LORD 3068 that came to Jeremiah 3414 the prophet 5030 against the Philistines 6430, before that Pharaoh 6547 smote 5221 Gaza 5804.
2 Thus saith 559 the LORD 3068; Behold, waters 4325 rise up 5927 out of the north 6828, and shall be an overflowing 7857 flood 5158, and shall overflow 7857 the land 776, and all that is therein 4393; the city 5892, and them that dwell 3427 therein: then the men 120 shall cry 2199, and all the inhabitants 3427 of the land 776 shall howl 3213.
3 At the noise 6963 of the stamping 8161 of the hoofs 6541 of his strong 47 horses, at the rushing 7494 of his chariots 7393, and at the rumbling 1995 of his wheels 1534, the fathers 1 shall not look back 6437 to their children 1121 for feebleness 7510 of hands 3027;
4 Because of the day 3117 that cometh 935 to spoil 7703 all the Philistines 6430, and to cut off 3772 from Tyrus 6865 and Zidon 6721 every helper 5826 that remaineth 8300: for the LORD 3068 will spoil 7703 the Philistines 6430, the remnant 7611 of the country 339 of Caphtor 3731.
5 Baldness 7144 is come 935 upon Gaza 5804; Ashkelon 831 is cut off 1820 with the remnant 7611 of their valley 6010: how long wilt thou cut 1413 thyself?
6 O 1945 thou sword 2719 of the LORD 3068, how long will it be ere 3808 thou be quiet 8252? put up 622 thyself into thy scabbard 8593, rest 7280, and be still 1826.
7 How can it be quiet 8252, seeing the LORD 3068 hath given it a charge 6680 against Ashkelon 831, and against the sea 3220 shore 2348? there hath he appointed 3259 it.
