Zechariah:9:1-8
Seeker Overlay ON
*
An Oracle The word of the LORD is against the land of Hadrach and will rest upon Damascus .
For to the LORD belong the cities of Aram ,
even as all the tribes of Israel ;
*
Hamath also ,
which borders thereon ,
Tyre and Sidon ,
though they are very wise .
*
Tyre has built herself a rampart ,
and heaped up silver like dust ,
and gold like the dirt of the streets .
*
But lo ,
the Lord will strip her of her possessions and hurl her wealth into the sea ,
and she shall be devoured by fire .
*
Ash '
kelon shall see it ,
and be afraid ;
Gaza too ,
and shall writhe in anguish ;
Ekron also ,
because its hopes are confounded .
The king shall perish from Gaza ;
Ash '
kelon shall be uninhabited ;
*
a mongrel people shall dwell in Ashdod ;
and I will make an end of the pride of Philistia .
*
I will take away its blood from its mouth ,
and its abominations from between its teeth ;
it too shall be a remnant for our God ;
it shall be like a clan in Judah ,
and Ekron shall be like the Jeb '
usites .
*
Then I will encamp at my house as a guard ,
so that none shall march to and fro ;
no oppressor shall again overrun them ,
for now I see with my own eyes .
