9 *aThe burden of the word of the Lord in the land of bHadrach,

And cDamascus shall be the rest thereof:

When dthe eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the Lord.

And eHamath also shall border thereby;

fgTyrus, and fhZidon, though iit be very wise.

And Tyrus did build herself ka strong hold,

And lheaped up silver as the dust,

And mfine gold nas the mire of the streets.

Behold, the Lord will ocast her out,

And he will smite pher power in the sea;

And qshe shall be devoured with fire.

rAshkelon shall see it, and fear;

rGaza also shall see it, and be very sorrowful,

And rEkron; for her expectation rrshall be ashamed;

And the king shall perish from Gaza,

And Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.

And sa bastard shall dwell in tAshdod,

And I will cut off the pride of tthe Philistines.

And I will take away uhis blood out of his mouth,

And his abominations from between his teeth:

But he that remaineth, even he, shall be for our God,

And he shall be as va governor in Judah,

And wEkron as xa Jebusite.

And yI will encamp about mine house because of the army,

Because of zhim that passeth by, and because of zhim that returneth:

And ano boppressor shall pass through them any more:

For now chave I seen with mine eyes.

dRejoice greatly, O edaughter of Zion;

eShout, O daughter of Jerusalem:

fBehold, gthy King cometh unto thee:

hHe is just, and ||having salvation;

fiLowly, and kriding upon an ass,

fAnd upon a colt the foal of an ass.

10  And lI will cut off the chariot from Ephraim,

And lmthe horse from Jerusalem,

And the battle bow shall be cut off:

And nhe shall speak opeace unto the heathen:

pAnd his dominion shall be qfrom sea even to sea,

pAnd from the river even to rthe ends of the earth.

11  As for thee also, ||by sthe blood of thy covenant

I thave sent forth thy tuprisoners out of vthe pit wherein is no water.

12  Turn you to the strong hold, tye prisoners wof hope:

xEven to day do I declare that I will render ydouble unto thee;

13  yyWhen I have bent Judah for me, zfilled the bow with Ephraim,

And raised up thy sons, O Zion, against athy sons, bO Greece,

And made thee as the sword of a mighty man.

14  And the Lord shall be seen over them,

And chis arrow shall go forth as dthe lightning:

And ethe Lord God shall blow the trumpet,

And shall go fwith whirlwinds of gthe south.

15  The Lord of hosts hshall defend them; and ithey shall devour,

And ||subdue with sling stones;

And they shall drink, and kmake a noise as through wine;

And they ||shall be filled like lbowls, and as mthe corners of the altar.

16  And the Lord their God shall save them nin that day as othe flock of his people:

For they shall be as pthe stones of a crown, qlifted up as an ensign upon his land.

17  For rhow great is shis goodness, and how great is this beauty!

suCorn shall make the young men ||cheerful, and swnew wine the maids.
