A Pronouncement against Philistia

28 In the year that King Ahaz died,(A) this pronouncement came:(B)

29 Don’t rejoice, all of you in Philistia,
because the rod of the one who struck you(C) is broken.
For a viper will come from the root[a] of a snake,
and from its egg comes a flying serpent.(D)
30 Then the firstborn(E) of the poor will be well fed,
and the impoverished will lie down in safety,
but I will kill your root with hunger,
and your remnant will be slain.
