Zechariah 9:6 in context

Zechariah 9:3–9

3

Tyre built herself a stronghold,

and heaped up silver like the dust,

and fine gold like the mire of the streets.

4

Behold, the Lord will dispossess her,

and he will strike her power in the sea;

and she will be devoured with fire.

5

Ashkelon will see it, and fear;

Gaza also, and will writhe in agony;

as will Ekron, for her expectation will be disappointed;

and the king will perish from Gaza,

and Ashkelon will not be inhabited.

6
Selected verse

Foreigners will dwell in Ashdod,

and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.

7

I will take away his blood out of his mouth,

and his abominations from between his teeth;

and he also will be a remnant for our God;

and he will be as a chieftain in Judah,

and Ekron as a Jebusite.

8

I will encamp around my house against the army,

that no one pass through or return;

and no oppressor will pass through them any more:

for now I have seen with my eyes.

9

Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion!

Shout, daughter of Jerusalem!

Behold, your King comes to you!

He is righteous, and having salvation;

lowly, and riding on a donkey,

even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
