¶2; The .xlvii. Chapter. 1 The worde of the Lorde against the Philistines. A   


1   These are the wordes that the Lorde spake vnto Ieremie the prophete against the Philistines, before that Pharao smote [the citie of] Azah.


2   Thus saith the Lorde: Beholde, there shal waters arise out of the north, and shall growe to a great fludde, running ouer ∧ couering the lande and all that is therin, the cities and them that dwel therin: and the men shal crye, ∧ all they that dwel in the land shal mourne


3   At the noyse and stamping of their strong barbed horses, at the shaking of their charrets, and at the rumbling of the wheeles: the fathers shall not looke to their chyldren, so feeble and weerie shall their handes be, B   


4   At the same tyme when he shalbe there to destroy the whole lande of the Philistines, he shall make waste both Tyrus, Sidon, and the residue of their ayde: for the Lorde wyll destroy the Philistines, the remnaunt of the Ile of note Caphtor.


5   Baldnesse is come vpon Azah, Ascalon is put to scilence, with the rest of their valleys: Howe long wylt thou teare thy selfe?


6   O thou sworde of the Lorde, howe long wylt thou not ceasse? Turne againe into thy sheath, rest, and leaue of.


7   But how can it ceasse, when the Lord him selfe hath geuen it a charge against Ascalon, and raysed it vp against the cities of the sea coast?
