⁷ How can it^[a] be quiet
    ^(A)when the Lord has given it a charge?
Against ^(B)Ashkelon and against the seashore
    ^(C)he has appointed it.”

^31 (A)Wail, O ^(B)gate; cry out, O city;
    melt in fear, ^(C)O Philistia, all of you!
^(D)For smoke comes out of the north,
    and there is no straggler in his ranks.
