Judgment against Philistia
15 This is what the Lord God says: “Because the Philistines acted in vengeance and took revenge with deep contempt,(A) destroying because of their ancient hatred, 16 therefore this is what the Lord God says: I am about to stretch out My hand against the Philistines,(B) cutting off the Cherethites and wiping out what remains of the coastal peoples.[a](C) 17 I will execute great vengeance against them with furious rebukes. They will know that I am Yahweh(D) when I take My vengeance on them.”
