Jeremiah 47:1-7
This is the word of the LORD that came to the prophet Jeremiah about the Philistines before Pharaoh defeated Gaza.This is what the LORD says: Look, water is rising from the north and becoming an overflowing wadi. It will overflow the land and everything in it, the cities and their inhabitants. The people will cry out, and every inhabitant of the land will wail.At the sound of the stomping hooves of his stallions, the rumbling of his chariots, and the clatter of their wheels, fathers will not turn back for their sons. They will be utterly helplesson account of the day that is coming to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every remaining ally. Indeed, the LORD is about to destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the coastland of Caphtor.Baldness is coming to Gaza; Ashkelon will become silent. Remnant of their valley, how long will you gash yourself?Oh, sword of the LORD! How long will you be restless? Go back to your sheath; be still; be silent!How can it rest when the LORD has given it a command? He has assigned it against Ashkelon and the shore of the sea.

They will lie down in the evening among the houses of Ashkelon, for the LORD their God will return to them and restore their fortunes.

Nehemiah 13:23-27
In those days I also saw Jews who had married women from Ashdod, Ammon, and Moab.Half of their children spoke the language of Ashdod or the language of one of the other peoples but could not speak Hebrew.I rebuked them, cursed them, beat some of their men, and pulled out their hair. I forced them to take an oath before God and said,“ You must not give your daughters in marriage to their sons or take their daughters as wives for your sons or yourselves!Didn’t King Solomon of Israel sin in matters like this? There was not a king like him among many nations. He was loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel, yet foreign women drew him into sin.Why then should we hear about you doing all this terrible evil and acting unfaithfully against our God by marrying foreign women?”

Zechariah 9:5-7
Ashkelon will see it and be afraid; Gaza too, and will writhe in great pain, as will Ekron, for her hope will fail. There will cease to be a king in Gaza, and Ashkelon will become uninhabited.A mongrel people will live in Ashdod, and I will destroy the pride of the Philistines.I will remove the blood from their mouths and the abhorrent things from between their teeth. Then they too will become a remnant for our God; they will become like a clan in Judah and Ekron like the Jebusites.

I will also turn my hand against Ekron, and the remainder of the Philistines will perish. The Lord GOD has spoken.
