Zechariah 9:1-8
The word of the Lord is against the land of Hadrak, and will come to rest on DamascusÃÂâÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ
for the eyes of all people and all the tribes of Israel are on the Lord
and on Hamath too, which borders on it and on Tyre and Sidon, though they are very
Tyre has built herself a stronghold; she has heaped up silver like dust,
and gold like the dirt of the streets But the Lord will take away her possessions
and destroy her power on the sea, and she will be consumed by fire.
Askelon will see it and fear; Gaza will writhe in agony,
and Ekron too, for her hope will wither. Gaza will lose her kin and Ashkelon will be deserted. A mongrel people will occupy Ashdod, and I will put an end to the pride of the Philistines. I will take the blood from their mouths, the forbidden food from between their teeth.Those who are left will belong to our God and become a clan in Judah,
and Ekron will be like the Jebusites. NIV
