耶和华说:
“看啊,大水将从北方涨溢,
形成一道洪流,
淹没大地和地上的一切,
吞噬城邑和其中的居民。
人们必呼喊,
地上的居民必哀哭。
一听见马蹄嗒嗒、
战车隆隆、车轮滚滚的声音,
做父亲的就吓得手脚发软,
无力照顾儿女。
因为毁灭所有非利士人的日子到了,
铲除泰尔和西顿剩余帮手的日子到了。
耶和华要灭绝迦斐托岛剩余的非利士人。

This is what the Lord says:

Look, waters are rising from the north
and becoming an overflowing wadi.
They will overflow the land and everything in it,(A)
the cities and their inhabitants.
The people will cry out,
and every inhabitant of the land will wail.
At the sound of the stomping hooves of his stallions,(B)
the rumbling of his chariots,
and the clatter of their wheels,(C)
fathers will not turn back for their sons,
because they will be utterly helpless[a]
on account of the day that is coming
to destroy all the Philistines,
to cut off from Tyre and Sidon
every remaining ally.(D)
Indeed, the Lord is about to destroy the Philistines,
the remnant of the islands of Caphtor.[b](E)

  1. Jeremiah 47:3 Lit because of laziness of hands
  2. Jeremiah 47:4 Probably Crete

Thus saith the Lord; Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and shall be an overflowing flood, and shall overflow the land, and all that is therein; the city, and them that dwell therein: then the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl.

At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong horses, at the rushing of his chariots, and at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers shall not look back to their children for feebleness of hands;

Because of the day that cometh to spoil all the Philistines, and to cut off from Tyrus and Zidon every helper that remaineth: for the Lord will spoil the Philistines, the remnant of the country of Caphtor.

“Here is what Adonai says:

‘Water is rising out of the north;
it will become a flooding stream,
flooding the land and all that is in it,
the city and its inhabitants.
The people are crying out in alarm,
everyone in the land is weeping
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,
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.
