| 47 | 2 | Thus saith the Lord: Behold there come up waters out of the north, and they shall be as an overflowing torrent, and they shall cover the land, and all that is therein, the city and the inhabitants thereof: then the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl, | haec dicit Dominus ecce aquae ascendunt ab aquilone et erunt quasi torrens inundans et operient terram et plenitudinem eius urbem et habitatores eius clamabunt homines et ululabit omnis habitator terrae |
| 47 | 3 | At the noise of the marching of arms, and of his soldiers, at the rushing of his chariots, and the multitude of his wheels.

| 47 | 4 | Because of the coming of the day, in which all the Philistines shall be laid waste, and Tyre and Sidon shall be destroyed, with all the rest of their helpers.

| 47 | 6 | O thou sword of the Lord, how long wilt thou not be quiet? Go into thy scabbard, rest, and be still. | o mucro Domini usquequo non quiescis ingredere in vaginam tuam refrigerare et sile |
| 47 | 7 | How shall it be quiet, when the Lord hath given it a charge against Ascalon, and against the countries thereof by the sea side, and there hath made an appointment for it? | quomodo quiescet cum Dominus praeceperit ei adversus Ascalonem et adversus maritimas eius regiones ibique condixerit illi |
