Jeremiah 47:2-4

International Standard Version

“Look, waters are rising from the north,
    and they’ll become an overflowing river.
They’ll overflow the land and all that fills it^[a]—
    the city and those that live in it.
People will cry out,
    and all those living in the land will wail.
³ At the sound of the galloping hooves of his horses,^[b]
    at the rumbling of his chariots,
        the clatter of his wheels,
fathers won’t turn back for their^[c] children
    because their hands are weak,
⁴ for the day is coming to destroy all the Philistines,
    to cut off from Tyre and Sidon
        every helper who remains.
For the Lord is destroying the Philistines,
    the remnant of the coastlands of Caphtor.^[d]
