Tzefanyah 2:5-8 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

5. Hoy (Woe) unto the inhabitants of the seacoast, the nation of the Keretim (Cretans)! The Devar Hashem is against you, O Kena'an, eretz of the Pelishtim (Philistines). I will even destroy thee, that there no inhabitant remains.

6. And the seacoast shall be dwellings and meadows for ro'im (shepherds), and pens for tzon.

7. And the coast shall be for the she'erit Bais Yehudah; they shall feed thereupon; in the batim (houses) of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the erev; for Hashem Eloheichem shall visit them, and restore their fortunes.

8. I have heard the reproach of Moav, and the revilings of the Bnei Ammon, whereby they have reproached My nation, and magnified themselves against their territory.
