4. Behold, the Lord will dispossess her And cast her wealth 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 expectation has been confounded. Moreover, the king will perish from Gaza, And Ashkelon will not be inhabited.
6. And a mongrel race will dwell in 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.
