A Prophecy against the Philistines
47 This is[a] the message from the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh conquered Gaza. 2 This is what the Lord says:
“Look, waters are rising from the north,
and they’ll become an overflowing river.
They’ll overflow the land and all that fills it[b]—
the city and those that live in it.
People will cry out,
and all those living in the land will wail.

at the rumbling of his chariots,
the clatter of his wheels,
fathers won’t turn back for their[d] children
because their hands are weak,
