Zechariah 9:2-7 ▼

2 And Hamath also, which borders on it; And Tyre and Sidon, because they are very wise.

3 So Tyre built herself a tight fortification And tied up silver like dust And fine gold like the mire of the streets.

4 Behold, the Lord will dispossess her And strike her wealth down into the sea; And she will be consumed with fire.

5 Ashkelon will see it and be afraid. Gaza too will writhe in great pain; Also Ekron, for her hope has been put to shame. Moreover, the king will perish from Gaza, And Ashkelon will not be inhabited.

6 And those of illegitimate birth will inhabit Ashdod, And I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.

7 And I will remove their blood from their mouth And their detestable things from between their teeth. Then they also will be a remnant for our God, And be like a clan in Judah, And Ekron like a Jebusite.
