Thus says the Lord:

(A)“For three transgressions of (B)Gaza,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because (C)they carried into exile a whole people
    to deliver them up to Edom.
So I will send a fire upon the wall of (D)Gaza,
    and it shall devour her strongholds.
I will cut off the inhabitants from (E)Ashdod,
    and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon;
I will turn my hand against Ekron,
    and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish,”
says the Lord God.
