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."
