Ashdod will be driven out at noon, and Ekron will be uprooted. 5 Woe to the dwellers of the seacoast, O nation of the Cherethites! The word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines: “I will destroy you, and no one will be left.” 6 So the seacoast will become a land of pastures, with wells for shepherds and folds for sheep. 7 The coast will belong to the remnant of the house of Judah; there they will find pasture. They will lie down in the evening among the houses of Ashkelon, for the LORD their God will attend to them and restore their captives.
