Zechariah 9:4-6
Contemporary English Version
4 Now the Lord will punish Tyre
with poverty;
he will sink its ships
and send it up in flames.
5 (A) Both Ashkelon and Gaza
will tremble with fear;
Ekron will lose all hope.
Gaza's king will be killed,
and Ashkelon emptied
of its people.
6 A mob of half-breeds
will settle in Ashdod,[a]
and the Lord himself
will rob Philistia of pride.
