A Message About the Philistines

47 The Lord spoke his word to Jeremiah the prophet. This message is about the Philistine people. It came before the king of Egypt attacked the city of Gaza.

“See, the enemy is gathering in the north like rising waters.

Everyone living in that country
    will cry for help.
    The people will cry painfully.
