"The peoples have heard, they tremble; Anguish has gripped the inhabitants of Philistia.

"Moab is My washbowl; Over Edom I shall throw My shoe; Shout loud, O Philistia, because of Me!"

Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;

"I shall mention Rahab and Babylon among those who know Me; Behold, Philistia and Tyre with Ethiopia: ‘This one was born there.'"

"Moab is My washbowl; Over Edom I shall throw My shoe; Over Philistia I will shout aloud."

"Do not rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, Because the rod that struck you is broken; For from the serpent's root a viper will come out, And its fruit will be a flying serpent.

"Wail, O gate; cry, O city; Melt away, O Philistia, all of you; For smoke comes from the north, And there is no straggler in his ranks.
