Jeremiah 47:2-4
New American Standard Bible 1995
2 Thus says the Lord:
“Behold, waters are going to rise from (A)the north
And become an overflowing torrent,
And (B)overflow the land and all its fullness,
The city and those who live in it;
And the men will (C)cry out,
And every inhabitant of the land will wail.
3 “Because of the noise of the [a](D)galloping hoofs of his [b]stallions,
The tumult of his chariots, and the rumbling of his wheels,
The fathers have not turned back for their children,
Because of the limpness of their hands,
4 On account of the day that is coming
To (E)destroy all the Philistines,
To cut off from (F)Tyre and Sidon
Every ally that is left;
For the Lord is going to destroy the Philistines,
The remnant of the coastland of (G)Caphtor.
