* The burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach , and Damascus shall be the rest thereof : when the eyes of man , as of all the tribes of Israel Yisra #el #, shall be toward the LORD . * And Hamath also shall border thereby ; Tyrus , and Zidon , though it be very wise . * And Tyrus did build herself a strong hold , and heaped up silver as the dust , and fine gold as the mire of the streets . * Behold , the Lord will cast her out , and he will smite her power in the sea ; and she shall be devoured with fire . * Ashkelon shall see it , and fear ; Gaza also shall see it , and be very sorrowful , and Ekron ; for her expectation shall be ashamed ; and the king shall perish from Gaza , and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited . * And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod , and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines . * And I will take away his blood out of his mouth , and his abominations from between his teeth : but he that remaineth , even he , shall be for our God , and he shall be as a governor in Judah , and Ekron as a Jebusite . * And I will encamp about mine house because of the army , because of him that passeth by , and because of him that returneth : and no oppressor shall pass through them any more : for now have I seen with mine eyes . * Rejoice greatly m @#od #, O daughter of Zion ; shout , O daughter of Jerusalem : behold , thy King cometh unto thee : he is just , and having salvation ; lowly , and riding upon an ass , and upon a colt the foal of an ass . * And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim , and the horse from Jerusalem , and the battle bow shall be cut off : and he shall speak peace unto the heathen : and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea , and from the river even to the ends of the earth . * As for thee also , by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water . * Turn you to the strong hold , ye prisoners of hope : even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee ; * When I have bent Judah for me , filled the bow with Ephraim , and raised up thy sons , O Zion , against thy sons , O Greece , and made thee as the sword of a mighty man . * And the LORD shall be seen over them , and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning : and the Lord GOD shall blow the trumpet , and shall go with whirlwinds of the south . * The LORD of hosts shall defend them ; and they shall devour , and subdue with sling stones ; and they shall drink , and make a noise as through wine ; and they shall be filled like bowls , and as the corners of the altar . * And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people : for they shall be as the stones of a crown , lifted up as an ensign upon his land . * For how great is his goodness , and how great is his beauty ! corn shall make the young men cheerful , and new wine the maids .
