King James Version
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
The word of the
LORD
that
came
to
Jeremiah the
prophet
against
the Philistines, before that
Pharaoh smote
Gaza .
That
which
hath
been
the word of Jehovah
unto
Jeremiah concerning
the Philistines, before Pharaoh smiteth
Gaza :
Thus saith
the
LORD;
Behold
, waters rise
up out
of
the north, and shall
be
an overflowing flood
, and shall
overflow the land ,
and all
that
is
therein;
the city, and them
that
dwell
therein:
then
the men shall
cry
, and all
the
inhabitants
of the land shall
howl
.
`
Thus said
Jehovah:
Lo
, waters are
coming
up from
the north, And have
been
for
an overflowing stream
, And they
overflow the land and its
fulness,
The city, and the inhabitants
in
it,
And
men have
cried
out
, And howled
hath
every
inhabitant
of the land.
At
the noise
of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong
horses
, at
the rushing of his chariots
, and
at
the rumbling
of his wheels, the
fathers shall
not look
back
to
their
children
for
feebleness of hands ;
From
the sound
of the stamping of the hoofs of his mighty
ones
, From
the rushing of his chariot
, the noise
of his wheels, Fathers have
not turned
unto
sons,
From
feebleness of hands ,
Because of the day that cometh
to spoil all the Philistines, and
to cut off from
Tyrus
and Zidon every helper
that
remaineth:
for the
LORD
will
spoil
the Philistines, the remnant of the country
of Caphtor.
Because of the day that hath
come
to spoil all the Philistines, To cut off to
Tyre
and to
Zidon every helping
remnant.
For Jehovah
is
spoiling
the Philistines, The remnant of the isle
of Caphtor.
Baldness
is
come upon
Gaza ;
Ashkelon
is
cut off with
the
remnant of their valley :
how
long
wilt
thou cut thyself?
Come hath
baldness
unto
Gaza ,
Cut off hath
been
Ashkelon,
O
remnant of their valley ,
Till
when
dost
thou cut thyself?
O
thou
sword of the
LORD
, how
long
will
it
be
ere
thou be
quiet? put
up
thyself
into
thy scabbard
, rest ,
and be
still
.
Ho,
sword of Jehovah
, till
when
art
thou not
quiet? Be
removed
unto
thy sheath
, rest and cease
.
How can
it be quiet, seeing
the
LORD
hath given it
a charge against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? there hath he appointed it .
How shall
it be quiet, And
Jehovah
hath given a charge to
it,
Against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? There hath He appointed it !'
