Judgment on the Philistines
47 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet (A)concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck down (B)Gaza.
2 “Thus says the Lord:
(C)Behold, waters are rising (D)out of the north,
(E)and shall become an overflowing torrent;
they shall overflow (F)the land and all that fills it,
the city and those who dwell in it.
Men shall cry out,
and every inhabitant of the land shall wail.
3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his stallions,
(G)at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of their wheels,
the fathers (H)look not back to their children,
so feeble are their hands,
4 because of the day that is coming to destroy
all (I)the Philistines,
to cut off from (J)Tyre and Sidon
every helper that remains.
For the Lord is destroying the Philistines,
(K)the remnant of the coastland of (L)Caphtor.
5 (M)Baldness has come upon Gaza;
(N)Ashkelon has perished.
O remnant of their valley,
(O)how long will you gash yourselves?
6 (P)Ah, sword of the Lord!
How long till you are quiet?
Put yourself into your scabbard;
rest and be still!
7 How can it[a] be quiet
(Q)when the Lord has given it a charge?
Against (R)Ashkelon and against the seashore
(S)he has appointed it.”

Zechariah 9:5-7
English Standard Version
5 (A)Ashkelon shall see it, and be afraid;
Gaza too, and shall writhe in anguish;
Ekron also, because its hopes are confounded.
The king shall perish from Gaza;
Ashkelon shall be uninhabited;
6 (B)a mixed people[a] shall dwell in Ashdod,
and I will cut off the pride of Philistia.
7 I will take away (C)its blood from its mouth,
and (D)its abominations from between its teeth;
(E)it too shall be a remnant for our God;
it shall be like (F)a clan in Judah,
and Ekron shall be like the Jebusites.

and Ekron shall be uprooted.
5 Woe to (B)you inhabitants of the seacoast,
you nation of (C)the Cherethites!
(D)The word of the Lord is against you,
(E)O Canaan, land of the Philistines;
and I will destroy you (F)until no inhabitant is left.
6 (G)And you, O seacoast, (H)shall be pastures,
with meadows[a] for shepherds
and folds for flocks.
7 (I)The seacoast shall become the possession
of (J)the remnant of the house of Judah,
(K)on which they shall graze,
and in the houses of Ashkelon
they shall lie down at evening.
For the Lord their God (L)will be mindful of them
and (M)restore their fortunes.

6 Thus says the Lord:
(A)“For three transgressions of (B)Gaza,

because (C)they carried into exile a whole people
to deliver them up to Edom.
7 So I will send a fire upon the wall of (D)Gaza,
and it shall devour her strongholds.
8 I will cut off the inhabitants from (E)Ashdod,
and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon;
I will turn my hand against Ekron,
and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish,”
says the Lord God.

Prophecy Against Philistia
15 “Thus says the Lord God: Because (A)the Philistines (B)acted revengefully and took vengeance (C)with malice of soul to destroy in never-ending enmity, 16 therefore thus says the Lord God, (D)Behold, I will stretch out my hand against the Philistines, and I will cut off (E)the Cherethites and destroy the rest of the seacoast. 17 I will execute great vengeance on them (F)with wrathful rebukes. (G)Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I lay my vengeance upon them.”

Nehemiah 13:23-27
English Standard Version
23 In those days also I saw the Jews (A)who had married women (B)of Ashdod, (C)Ammon, and (D)Moab. 24 And half of their children spoke the language of Ashdod, and they could not speak the language of Judah, but only the language of each people. 25 (E)And I confronted them and cursed them and beat some of them and pulled out their hair. (F)And I made them take an oath in the name of God, saying, “You shall not give your daughters to their sons, or take their daughters for your sons or for yourselves. 26 (G)Did not Solomon king of Israel sin on account of such women? (H)Among the many nations there was no king like him, and he was (I)beloved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless, foreign women made even him to sin. 27 Shall we then listen to you and do all this great evil and (J)act treacherously against our God by marrying foreign women?”
