Zechariah 9:1-6

Revised Standard Version RSV

1 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;

2 Hamath also, which borders thereon, Tyre and Sidon, though they are very wise.

3 Tyre has built herself a rampart, and heaped up silver like dust, and gold like the dirt of the streets.

4 But lo, the Lord will strip her of her possessions and hurl her wealth into the sea, and she shall be devoured by fire.

5 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;

6 a mongrel people shall dwell in Ashdod; and I will make an end of the pride of Philistia.

New International Version NIV

1 The word of the LORD is against the land of Hadrak and will come to rest on Damascus— for the eyes of all people and all the tribes of Israel are on the LORD—

2 and on Hamath too, which borders on it, and on Tyre and Sidon, though they are very skillful.

3 Tyre has built herself a stronghold; she has heaped up silver like dust, and gold like the dirt of the streets.

4 But the Lord will take away her possessions and destroy her power on the sea, and she will be consumed by fire.

5 Ashkelon will see it and fear; Gaza will writhe in agony, and Ekron too, for her hope will wither. Gaza will lose her king and Ashkelon will be deserted.

6 A mongrel people will occupy Ashdod, and I will put an end to the pride of the Philistines.
