3. For Tyre built herself a tower,Heaped up silver like the dust,And gold like the mire of the streets.
4. Behold, the Lord will cast her out;He will destroy her power in the sea,And she will be devoured by fire.
5. Ashkelon shall see it and fear;Gaza also shall be very sorrowful;And Ekron, for He dried up her expectation.The king shall perish from Gaza,And Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
6. “A mixed race shall settle in Ashdod,And I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
7. I will take away the blood from his mouth,And the abominations from between his teeth.But he who remains, even he shall be for our God,And shall be like a leader in Judah,And Ekron like a Jebusite.
8. I will camp around My houseBecause of the army,Because of him who passes by and him who returns.No more shall an oppressor pass through them,For now I have seen with My eyes.
9. “Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion!Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem!Behold, your King is coming to you;He is just and having salvation,Lowly and riding on a donkey,A colt, the foal of a donkey.
10. I will cut off the chariot from EphraimAnd the horse from Jerusalem;The battle bow shall be cut off.He shall speak peace to the nations;His dominion shall be ‘from sea to sea,And from the River to the ends of the earth.’
