Yahweh will destroy the Pelishtim

14:28 Yahweh will destroy the Pelishtim

28 In the year that King Ahaz died,[ref] this message came:

29 All you Pelishtim, don’t celebrate that the rod that struck you is now broken,

because out of the root of that snake, a viper will grow,

and its result will be a darting adder.[ref]

30 Then the poor will graze in my pastures,

≈ and the needy will lie down in safety.

I will kill your root with famine,

≈ and it will kill your survivors.

31 Wail, you gate. Cry out, you city.

Peleshet, all of you will melt away,

because smoke comes from the north,

and no soldier is alone in his ranks.

32 What will Peleshet answer to the messengers from that nation?

Remember that Yahweh has founded Tsiyon (Zion),

and it’s in her that the afflicted among his people will find safety.
