their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and
all
them that trust in him:
26
And I will deliver them
into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon,
and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith the
L
ORD
.
27
But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save
thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in
rest and at ease, and none shall make
him
afraid.
28
Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the
L
ORD
: for I
am
with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee:
but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly
unpunished.
CHAPTER 47
The word of the L
ORD
that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before that Pharaoh
smote Gaza.
2
Thus saith the L
ORD
; 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.
3
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;
4
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 L
ORD
will spoil the Philistines, the remnant of the country of Caphtor.
5
Baldness
is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off
with
the remnant of their valley: how long wilt thou cut
thyself?
6
O thou sword of the L
ORD
, how long
will it be
ere thou be quiet? put up thyself into thy
scabbard, rest, and be still.
7
How can it be quiet, seeing the L
ORD
hath given it a charge against
Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? there hath he appointed it.
CHAPTER 48
Against Moab thus saith the L
ORD
of hosts, the God of Israel; Woe unto Nebo! for it is spoiled:
Kiriathaim is confounded
and
taken: Misgab is confounded and dismayed.
2
There shall be
no more
praise of Moab: in Heshbon they have devised evil against it; come, and let us cut it off from
being
a nation. Also thou shalt be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue thee.
3
A voice of crying
shall be
from Horonaim, spoiling and great destruction.
4

caused a cry to be heard.
5
For in the going up of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in the
going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.
6
Flee, save your lives, and
be like the heath in the wilderness.
