4 because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines,to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains;for the Lord will destroy the Philistines,the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
5 Baldness has come on Gaza;Ashkelon is brought to nothing,the remnant of their valley:how long will you cut yourself?
6 “‘You sword of the Lord, how long will it be before you are quiet?Put yourself back into your scabbard;rest, and be still.’
7 “How can you be quiet,since the Lord has given you a command?Against Ashkelon, and against the seashore,there has he appointed it.”
