And every inhabitant of the land will wail.

Because of the limpness of their hands,

Jer 47:4On account of the day that is coming
To destroy all the Philistines,
To cut off from Tyre and Sidon
Every ally that is left;
For the LORD is going to destroy the Philistines,
The remnant of the coastland of Caphtor.

How long will you not be quiet?

When the LORD has given it an order?
Against Ashkelon and against the seacoast—
There He has assigned it.”
