Jeremiah 47 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh’s word that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck Gaza.
[2] Yahweh says: “Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and will become an overflowing stream, and will overflow the land and all that is therein, the city and those who dwell therein. The men will cry, and all the inhabitants of the land will wail.
[3] At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers don’t look back for their children because their hands are so feeble,
[4] because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains; for Yahweh will destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
[5] Baldness has come on Gaza; Ashkelon is brought to nothing. You remnant of their valley, how long will you cut yourself?
[6] “‘You sword of Yahweh, how long will it be before you are quiet? Put yourself back into your scabbard; rest, and be still.’
[7] “How can you be quiet, since Yahweh has given you a command? Against Ashkelon, and against the seashore, there he has appointed it.”

Jeremiah 47 (BYZ)

[1] [29:1] επι τους αλλοφυλους
[2] [29:2] ταδε λεγει κυριος ιδου υδατα αναβαινει απο βορρα και εσται εις χειμαρρουν κατακλυζοντα και κατακλυσει γην και το πληρωμα αυτης πολιν και τους κατοικουντας εν αυτη και κεκραξονται οι ανθρωποι και αλαλαξουσιν απαντες οι κατοικουντες την γην
[3] [29:3] απο φωνης ορμης αυτου απο των οπλων των ποδων αυτου και απο σεισμου των αρματων αυτου ηχου τροχων αυτου ουκ επεστρεψαν πατερες εφ υιους αυτων απο εκλυσεως χειρων αυτων
[4] [29:4] εν τη ημερα τη ερχομενη του απολεσαι παντας τους αλλοφυλους και αφανιω την τυρον και την σιδωνα και παντας τους καταλοιπους της βοηθειας αυτων οτι εξολεθρευσει κυριος τους καταλοιπους των νησων
[5] [29:5] ηκει φαλακρωμα επι γαζαν απερριφη ασκαλων και οι καταλοιποι ενακιμ εως τινος κοψεις
[6] [29:6] η μαχαιρα του κυριου εως τινος ουχ ησυχασεις αποκαταστηθι εις τον κολεον σου αναπαυσαι και επαρθητι
[7] [29:7] πως ησυχασει και κυριος ενετειλατο αυτη επι την ασκαλωνα και επι τας παραθαλασσιους επι τας καταλοιπους επεγερθηναι
