8“I will also cut off the inhabitant from aAshdod

And him who holds the scepter from bAshkelon;

I will even turn My hand against Ekron,

And the remnant of the cPhilistines will perish,”

Says Lord Yahweh.

9Thus says Yahweh,

“For three transgressions of aTyre and for four

I will not turn back its punishment

Because they delivered up the whole community of exiles to Edom

And did not remember the covenant of 1bbrotherhood.

10“So I will asend fire upon the wall of Tyre,

And it will consume her citadels.”

I will cut off the inhabitants from Ashdod,

and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon;

I will turn my hand against Ekron,

and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish,”

says the Lord God.

Thus says the Lord:

“For three transgressions of Tyre,

and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,

because they delivered up a whole people to Edom,

and did not remember the covenant of brotherhood.

So I will send a fire upon the wall of Tyre,

and it shall devour her strongholds.”

NIVNew International Version (2011)

I will destroy the king of Ashdod

and the one who holds the scepter in Ashkelon.

I will turn my hand against Ekron,

till the last of the Philistines are dead,”

says the Sovereign Lord.

This is what the Lord says:

“For three sins of Tyre,

even for four, I will not relent.

Because she sold whole communities of captives to Edom,

disregarding a treaty of brotherhood,

I will send fire on the walls of Tyre

that will consume her fortresses.”

CSBChristian Standard Bible

I will cut off the ruler from Ashdod,

and the one who wields the scepter from Ashkelon.

I will also turn my hand against Ekron,

and the remainder of the Philistines will perish.

The Lord God has spoken.

The Lord says:

I will not relent from punishing Tyre

for three crimes, even four,

because they handed over

a whole community of exiles to Edom

and broke a treaty of brotherhood.

Therefore, I will send fire against the walls of Tyre,

and it will consume its citadels.

NLTNew Living Translation

I will slaughter the people of Ashdod

and destroy the king of Ashkelon.

Then I will turn to attack Ekron,

and the few Philistines still left will be killed,”

says the Sovereign Lord.

This is what the Lord says:

“The people of Tyre have sinned again and again,

and I will not let them go unpunished!

They broke their treaty of brotherhood with Israel,

selling whole villages as slaves to Edom.

So I will send down fire on the walls of Tyre,

and all its fortresses will be destroyed.”

And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod,

And him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon,

And I will turn mine hand against Ekron:

And the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord God.

Thus saith the Lord;

For three transgressions of Tyrus,

And for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof;

Because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom,

And remembered not the brotherly covenant:

But I will send a fire on the wall of Tyrus,

Which shall devour the palaces thereof.
