47 ¶ Men mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Jeremi sou peyi Filisti a, anvan farawon an t' al atake Gaza.

Seyè a di konsa: -Gade! Bò nan nò, dlo yo ap gonfle, y'ap fè yon gwo lavalas k'ap desann, y'ap anvayi peyi a, y'ap kouvri tou sa ki ladan l'. Y'ap anvayi lavil yo ak tout moun ladan yo. Moun ap rele, y'ap plenn. Tout moun nan peyi a nan gwo lapenn.

Lè y'a tande bri zago chwal yo ap frape tè a, bri cha lagè yo k'ap kouri vini ak bri wou yo k'ap woule atè a, papa p'ap ka fè anyen pou pitit yo, tèlman y'a dekouraje.

Lè a rive pou yo ravaje tout peyi Filisti a nèt, pou yo disparèt tout rès moun ki t'ap bay lavil Tir ak lavil Sidon konkou. Se mwen menm Seyè a k'ap detwi tout moun Filisti yo, tout moun ki soti nan lil Krèt la.

Moun Gaza yo nan gwo lapenn, yo kale tèt yo. Moun Askalon yo pa ka pale. Kilè rès moun nan fon Filisti a va sispann kòche kò yo ak kouto pou plenn sò mò yo?

Adye! Kilè nepe Seyè a va sispann touye moun? Tounen nan djenn ou! Rete tou dousman, poze kò ou la!

Men, ki jan pou li fè poze lè Seyè a ba li lòd travay? Li gen pou l' ale jouk lavil Askalon dèyè moun ki rete bò lanmè a. Se la mwen voye l' ale.

A Message About the Philistines

47 This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines(A) before Pharaoh attacked Gaza:(B)

This is what the Lord says:

“See how the waters are rising in the north;(C)
    they will become an overflowing torrent.
They will overflow the land and everything in it,
    the towns and those who live in them.
The people will cry out;
    all who dwell in the land will wail(D)
at the sound of the hooves of galloping steeds,
    at the noise of enemy chariots(E)
    and the rumble of their wheels.
Parents will not turn to help their children;
    their hands will hang limp.(F)
For the day has come
    to destroy all the Philistines
and to remove all survivors
    who could help Tyre(G) and Sidon.(H)
The Lord is about to destroy the Philistines,(I)
    the remnant from the coasts of Caphtor.[a](J)
Gaza will shave(K) her head in mourning;
    Ashkelon(L) will be silenced.
You remnant on the plain,
    how long will you cut(M) yourselves?

“‘Alas, sword(N) of the Lord,
    how long till you rest?
Return to your sheath;
    cease and be still.’(O)
But how can it rest
    when the Lord has commanded it,
when he has ordered it
    to attack Ashkelon and the coast?”(P)
