Jeremiah 47:4-6
Evangelical Heritage Version
4 on account of the day that is coming to destroy all the Philistines,
to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who survives.
For the Lord will destroy the Philistines,
the surviving remnant from the shores of Caphtor.[a]
5 Baldness is coming to Gaza.
Ashkelon will be destroyed.
You survivors left on the plain,
how long will you cut yourselves?
6 O sword of the Lord!
How long until you rest?
Return to your scabbard.
Rest and be still.
