Jeremiah 47:5 Context

◄ Jeremiah 47:5 ►

The people of Gaza will shave their heads in mourning; Ashkelon will be silenced. O remnant of their valley, how long will you gash yourself?

Context

5“Baldness has come upon Gaza;
         Ashkelon has been ruined.
         O remnant of their valley,
         How long will you gash yourself?

6“Ah, sword of the LORD,
         How long will you not be quiet?
         Withdraw into your sheath;
         Be at rest and stay still.

7“How can it be quiet,
         When the LORD has given it an order?
         Against Ashkelon and against the seacoast—
         There He has assigned it.”
