Zechariah 9:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ An illegitimate child will dwell in Ashdod;
    I will eliminate the pride of the Philistines.
⁷ I will remove bloody food from his mouth
        and pieces of unclean food from between his teeth.
He will be a survivor who belongs to our God.
        He will be like a chieftain in Judah;
            Ekron will be like a Jebusite.
⁸ I will encamp before my house as a guard
    against anyone departing or returning.
        A slave driver will no longer pass through against them,
            for I have seen you^[a] with my eyes.
