Judgment on the Philistines and Promise to the Remnant

2
Chapter 2
4 For Gaza will be abandoned, and Ashkelon a desolation; they will drive out Ashdod at noon, and Ekron will be uprooted. 5 Woe to the inhabitants of the coast of the sea, nation of Cherethites! The word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines; and I will destroy you, with none inhabiting. 6 And it will be the region of the sea, pastures cut off from evils and sheepfolds of the flock. 7 And it will be a portion for the remnant of the house of Judah; they will graze on them, in the houses of Ashkelon; in the evening they will lie down; for the LORD their God will visit them, and he will restore their captivity.
