Jeremiah 47:5-7

New Catholic Bible

⁵ Baldness has afflicted Gaza;
    Ashkelon has been silenced.
O remnant of the Philistine strength,
    how long will you continue to gash yourselves?
⁶ Ah, sword of the Lord,
    how long will it be before you rest?
Return back to your scabbard.
    Cease and be still.
⁷ But how can you be at rest
    when the Lord has given you an order,
when he has commanded you to subdue
    Ashkelon and the seacoast?
