Zephaniah 2:5-7

New International Version - UK

⁵ Woe to you who live by the sea,
    you Kerethite people;
the word of the Lord is against you,
    Canaan, land of the Philistines.
He says, ‘I will destroy you,
    and none will be left.’
⁶ The land by the sea will become pastures
    having wells for shepherds
    and sheepfolds for flocks.
⁷ That land will belong
    to the remnant of the people of Judah;
    there they will find pasture.
In the evening they will lie down
    in the houses of Ashkelon.
The Lord their God will care for them;
    he will restore their fortunes.^[a]
