Jeremiah 47:3-5
Complete Jewish Bible
Jeremiah 47:3-5
Complete Jewish Bible
3 at the thunderous pound of his stallions’ hoofs,
at his rattling chariots’ rumbling wheels.
Fathers fail to turn back for their children;
instead, their hands hang limp,
4 because the day has come
for destroying all the P’lishtim,
for cutting off from Tzor and Tzidon
the last of their allies;
for Adonai is destroying the P’lishtim,
the remnant from the island of Kaftor.
5 ‘Azah is shaved bald,
Ashkelon reduced to silence.
Those of you who remain in their valley,
how long will you go on gashing yourselves?’”
Jeremiah 47:3-5

3 at the sound of the hooves of galloping steeds,
at the noise of enemy chariots(A)
and the rumble of their wheels.
Parents will not turn to help their children;
their hands will hang limp.(B)
4 For the day has come
to destroy all the Philistines
and to remove all survivors
who could help Tyre(C) and Sidon.(D)
The Lord is about to destroy the Philistines,(E)
the remnant from the coasts of Caphtor.[a](F)
5 Gaza will shave(G) her head in mourning;
Ashkelon(H) will be silenced.
You remnant on the plain,
how long will you cut(I) yourselves?
