The burden{H4853} of the word{H1697} of Jehovah{H3068} upon the land{H776} of Hadrach,{H2317} and Damascus{H1834} [shall be] its resting-place{H4496} (for the eye{H5869} of man{H120} and of all the tribes{H7626} of Israel{H3478} is toward Jehovah);{H3068}

and Hamath,{H2574} also, which bordereth{H1379} thereon; Tyre{H6865} and Sidon,{H6721} because they are very{H3966} wise.{H2449}

And Tyre{H6865} did build{H1129} herself a stronghold,{H4692} and heaped up{H6651} silver{H3701} as the dust,{H6083} and fine gold{H2742} as the mire{H2916} of the streets.{H2351}

Behold, the Lord{H136} will dispossess{H3423} her, and he will smite{H5221} her power{H2428} in the sea;{H3220} and she shall be devoured{H398} with fire.{H784}

Ashkelon{H831} shall see{H7200} it, and fear;{H3372} Gaza{H5804} also, and shall be sore{H3966} pained;{H2342} and Ekron,{H6138} for her expectation{H4007} shall be put to shame;{H3001} and the king{H4428} shall perish{H6} from Gaza,{H5804} and Ashkelon{H831} shall not be inhabited.{H3427}

And a bastard{H4464} shall dwell{H3427} in Ashdod,{H795} and I will cut off{H3772} the pride{H1347} of the Philistines.{H6430}

And I will take away{H5493} his blood{H1818} out of his mouth,{H6310} and his abominations{H8251} from between his teeth;{H8127} and he also shall be a remnant{H7604} for our God;{H430} and he shall be as a chieftain{H441} in Judah,{H3063} and Ekron{H6138} as a Jebusite.{H2983}

And I will encamp{H2583} about my house{H1004} against the army,{H4675} that none pass through{H5674} or return;{H7725} and no oppressor{H5065} shall pass through{H5674} them any more: for now have I seen{H7200} with mine eyes.{H5869}

Rejoice{H1523} greatly,{H3966} O daughter{H1323} of Zion;{H6726} shout,{H7321} O daughter{H1323} of Jerusalem:{H3389} behold, thy king{H4428} cometh{H935} unto thee; he is just,{H6662} and having salvation;{H3467} lowly,{H6041} and riding{H7392} upon an ass,{H2543} even upon a colt{H5895} the foal{H1121} of an ass.{H860}

And I will cut off{H3772} the chariot{H7393} from Ephraim,{H669} and the horse{H5483} from Jerusalem;{H3389} and the battle{H4421} bow{H7198} shall be cut off;{H3772} and he shall speak{H1696} peace{H7965} unto the nations:{H1471} and his dominion{H4915} shall be from sea{H3220} to sea,{H3220} and from the River{H5104} to the ends{H657} of the earth.{H776}

As for thee also, because of the blood{H1818} of thy covenant{H1285} I have set free{H7971} thy prisoners{H615} from the pit{H953} wherein is no water.{H4325}

Turn{H7725} you to the stronghold,{H1225} ye prisoners{H615} of hope:{H8615} even to-day{H3117} do I declare{H5046} that I will render{H7725} double{H4932} unto thee.

For I have bent{H1869} Judah{H3063} for me, I have filled{H4390} the bow{H7198} with Ephraim;{H669} and I will stir up{H5782} thy sons,{H1121} O Zion,{H6726} against thy sons,{H1121} O Greece,{H3120} and will make{H7760} thee as the sword{H2719} of a mighty man.{H1368}

And Jehovah{H3068} shall be seen{H7200} over them; and his arrow{H2671} shall go forth{H3318} as the lightning;{H1300} and the Lord{H136} Jehovah{H3069} will blow{H8628} the trumpet,{H7782} and will go{H1980} with whirlwinds{H5591} of the south.{H8486}

Jehovah{H3068} of hosts{H6635} will defend{H1598} them; and they shall devour,{H398} and shall tread down{H3533} the sling -{H7050} stones;{H68} and they shall drink,{H8354} and make a noise{H1993} as through wine;{H3196} and they shall be filled{H4390} like bowls,{H4219} like the corners{H2106} of the altar.{H4196}

And Jehovah{H3068} their God{H430} will save{H3467} them in that day{H3117} as the flock{H6629} of his people;{H5971} for [they shall be as] the stones{H68} of a crown,{H5145} lifted on high{H5264} over his land.{H127}

For how great is his goodness,{H2898} and how great is his beauty!{H3308} grain{H1715} shall make the young men{H970} flourish,{H5107} and new wine{H8492} the virgins.{H1330}
