The burden{H4853} of the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068} in the land{H776} of Hadrach{H2317}, and Damascus{H1834} shall be the rest{H4496} thereof: when the eyes{H5869} of man{H120}, as of all the tribes{H7626} of Israel{H3478}, shall be toward the LORD{H3068}.

And Hamath{H2574} also shall border{H1379}{(H8799)} thereby; Tyrus{H6865}, and Zidon{H6721}, though it be very{H3966} wise{H2449}{(H8804)}.

And Tyrus{H6865} did build{H1129}{(H8799)} herself a strong hold{H4692}, and heaped up{H6651}{(H8799)} silver{H3701} as the dust{H6083}, and fine gold{H2742} as the mire{H2916} of the streets{H2351}.

Behold, the Lord{H136} will cast her out{H3423}{(H8686)}, and he will smite{H5221}{(H8689)} her power{H2428} in the sea{H3220}; and she shall be devoured{H398}{(H8735)} with fire{H784}.

Ashkelon{H831} shall see{H7200}{(H8799)} it, and fear{H3372}{(H8799)}; Gaza{H5804} also shall see it, and be very{H3966} sorrowful{H2342}{(H8799)}, and Ekron{H6138}; for her expectation{H4007} shall be ashamed{H3001}{(H8689)}; and the king{H4428} shall perish{H6}{(H8804)} from Gaza{H5804}, and Ashkelon{H831} shall not be inhabited{H3427}{(H8799)}.

And a bastard{H4464} shall dwell{H3427}{(H8804)} in Ashdod{H795}, and I will cut off{H3772}{(H8689)} the pride{H1347} of the Philistines{H6430}.

And I will take away{H5493}{(H8689)} his blood{H1818} out of his mouth{H6310}, and his abominations{H8251} from between his teeth{H8127}: but he that remaineth{H7604}{(H8738)}, even he, shall be for our God{H430}, and he shall be as a governor{H441} in Judah{H3063}, and Ekron{H6138} as a Jebusite{H2983}.

And I will encamp{H2583}{(H8804)} about mine house{H1004} because of the army{H4675}, because of him that passeth by{H5674}{(H8802)}, and because of him that returneth{H7725}{(H8802)}: and no oppressor{H5065}{(H8802)} shall pass through{H5674}{(H8799)} them any more: for now have I seen{H7200}{(H8804)} with mine eyes{H5869}.

Rejoice{H1523}{(H8798)} greatly{H3966}, O daughter{H1323} of Zion{H6726}; shout{H7321}{(H8685)}, O daughter{H1323} of Jerusalem{H3389}: behold, thy King{H4428} cometh{H935}{(H8799)} unto thee: he is just{H6662}, and having salvation{H3467}{(H8737)}; lowly{H6041}, and riding{H7392}{(H8802)} upon an ass{H2543}, and upon a colt{H5895} the foal{H1121} of an ass{H860}.

And I will cut off{H3772}{(H8689)} the chariot{H7393} from Ephraim{H669}, and the horse{H5483} from Jerusalem{H3389}, and the battle{H4421} bow{H7198} shall be cut off{H3772}{(H8738)}: and he shall speak{H1696}{(H8765)} peace{H7965} unto the heathen{H1471}: and his dominion{H4915} shall be from sea{H3220} even to sea{H3220}, and from the river{H5104} even to the ends{H657} of the earth{H776}.

As for thee also, by the blood{H1818} of thy covenant{H1285} I have sent forth{H7971}{(H8765)} thy prisoners{H615} out of the pit{H953} wherein is no water{H4325}.

Turn{H7725}{(H8798)} you to the strong hold{H1225}, ye prisoners{H615} of hope{H8615}: even to day{H3117} do I declare{H5046}{(H8688)} that I will render{H7725}{(H8686)} double{H4932} unto thee;

When I have bent{H1869}{(H8804)} Judah{H3063} for me, filled{H4390}{(H8765)} the bow{H7198} with Ephraim{H669}, and raised up{H5782}{(H8790)} thy sons{H1121}, O Zion{H6726}, against thy sons{H1121}, O Greece{H3120}, and made{H7760}{(H8804)} thee as the sword{H2719} of a mighty man{H1368}.

And the LORD{H3068} shall be seen{H7200}{(H8735)} over them, and his arrow{H2671} shall go forth{H3318}{(H8804)} as the lightning{H1300}: and the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069} shall blow{H8628}{(H8799)} the trumpet{H7782}, and shall go{H1980}{(H8804)} with whirlwinds{H5591} of the south{H8486}.

The LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635} shall defend{H1598}{(H8686)} them; and they shall devour{H398}{(H8804)}, and subdue{H3533}{(H8804)} with sling{H7050} stones{H68}; and they shall drink{H8354}{(H8804)}, and make a noise{H1993}{(H8804)} as through wine{H3196}; and they shall be filled{H4390}{(H8804)} like bowls{H4219}, and as the corners{H2106} of the altar{H4196}.

And the LORD{H3068} their God{H430} shall save{H3467}{(H8689)} 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 up as an ensign{H5264}{(H8706)} upon his land{H127}.

For how great is his goodness{H2898}, and how great is his beauty{H3308}! corn{H1715} shall make the young men{H970} cheerful{H5107}{(H8766)}, and new wine{H8492} the maids{H1330}.
