Jeremiah 47:3-5
New King James Version
Jeremiah 47:3-5
New King James Version
3 At the (A)noise of the stamping hooves of his strong horses,
At the rushing of his chariots,
At the rumbling of his wheels,
The fathers will not look back for their children,
[a]Lacking courage,
4 Because of the day that comes to plunder all the (B)Philistines,
To cut off from (C)Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains;
For the Lord shall plunder the Philistines,
(D)The remnant of the country of (E)Caphtor.[b]
5 (F)Baldness has come upon Gaza,
(G)Ashkelon is cut off
With the remnant of their valley.
How long will you cut yourself?

New International Version
3 at the sound of the hooves of galloping steeds,
at the noise of enemy chariots(A)
and the rumble of their wheels.
Parents will not turn to help their children;
their hands will hang limp.(B)
4 For the day has come
to destroy all the Philistines
and to remove all survivors
who could help Tyre(C) and Sidon.(D)
The Lord is about to destroy the Philistines,(E)
the remnant from the coasts of Caphtor.[a](F)
5 Gaza will shave(G) her head in mourning;
Ashkelon(H) will be silenced.
You remnant on the plain,
how long will you cut(I) yourselves?
