Jeremiah 47:6

A Message Concerning The Philistines

⁵ Baldness is coming to Gaza.
Ashkelon will become silent,
a remnant of their valley.
How long will you gash yourself? ⁶ Oh, sword of the Lord!
How long will you be restless?
Go back to your sheath;
be still; be silent!
⁷ How can it rest
when the Lord has given it a command?
He has assigned it
against Ashkelon and the shore of the sea.
