Jeremiah 47:6-7

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁶ Ah, sword of the Lord!
    How long until you are quiet?
Put yourself into your scabbard,
    rest and be still!
⁷ How can it^[a] be quiet,
    when the Lord has given it an order?
Against Ashkelon and against the seashore—
    there he has appointed it.
