Jeremia 47 | English Standard Version

Judgment on the Philistines

1 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck down Gaza. 2 “Thus says the Lord: Behold, waters are rising out of the north, and shall become an overflowing torrent; they shall overflow the land and all that fills it, the city and those who dwell in it. Men shall cry out, and every inhabitant of the land shall wail. 3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his stallions, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of their wheels, the fathers look not back to their children, so feeble are their hands, 4 because of the day that is coming to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper that remains. For the Lord is destroying the Philistines, the remnant of the coastland of Caphtor. 5 Baldness has come upon Gaza; Ashkelon has perished. O remnant of their valley, how long will you gash yourselves? 6 Ah, sword of the Lord! How long till you are quiet? Put yourself into your scabbard; rest and be still! 7 How can it* be quiet when the Lord has given it a charge? Against Ashkelon and against the seashore he has appointed it.”

Prophétie sur les Philistins

1 Voici la parole de l'Eternel adressée au prophète Jérémie à propos des Philistins avant que le pharaon ne se soit attaqué à Gaza. 2 Voici ce que dit l'Eternel: De l'eau monte du nord, elle se transforme en torrent qui déborde. Elle va inonder le pays et ce qu'il contient, les villes et leurs habitants. Les hommes pousseront des cris, tous les habitants du pays hurleront 3 à cause du fracas que feront les sabots de ses puissants chevaux, à cause du tremblement de terre provoqué par ses chars et du vacarme de leurs roues. Les pères ne feront plus attention à leurs enfants, tant ils manqueront de force. 4 En effet, le jour arrive où tous les Philistins vont connaître la dévastation. Ils seront éliminés de Tyr et de Sidon, tous les survivants qui auraient pu les secourir, car l'Eternel va semer la dévastation parmi les Philistins, parmi ce qui reste de l'île de Caphtor. 5 Gaza est tondue, Askalon est réduite au silence. Vous, les rescapés de leur plaine, jusqu'à quand vous ferez-vous des incisions? 6 Epée de l'Eternel, quand te reposeras-tu enfin? Rentre dans ton fourreau et reste tranquille! 7 Comment te reposerais-tu? L'Eternel lui a donné ses ordres, là-bas, il lui a désigné Askalon et le rivage de la mer.
