And cEkron will be uprooted.

5 Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast,
The nation of the
I.e., a segment of the Philistines with roots in Crete
eCherethites!
The word of the Lord is fagainst you,
gCanaan, land of the Philistines;
And I will heliminate you
So that there will be ino inhabitant.

6 So the seacoast will become jgrazing places,
With pastures for shepherds and folds for flocks.

7 And the coast will be
For the kremnant of the house of Judah,
They will ldrive sheep to pasture on it.
In the houses of Ashkelon they will lie down at evening;
For the Lord their God will mcare for them
And nrestore their fortunes.
