Zephaniah 2:5


Zephaniah 2:4 Zephaniah 2:5 (KJV) Zephaniah 2:6
For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noon day, and Ekron shall be rooted up.
Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of the Cherethites! the word of the LORD [is] against you; O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant.
And the sea coast shall be dwellings [and] cottages for shepherds, and folds for flocks.
