Jeremiah 47:6-7

Expanded Bible

⁶ “·You cry [^LAh], ‘Sword of the Lord,
    how long ·will you keep fighting [^Lbefore you rest]?
Return to your ·holder [sheath].
    Stop and be still.’
⁷ But how can his sword rest
    when the Lord has given it a command?
He has ·ordered [assigned] it
    to attack Ashkelon and the seacoast.”
