Zechariah 9:6-8

International Standard Version

⁶ A strange people^[a] will inhabit Ashdod,
    and I will eliminate the arrogance of Philistia.
⁷ I will remove the blood from its mouth,
    along with its abominations from between its teeth.
Its survivors will be dedicated to our God;
    It will be like a clan of Judah,
        and Ekron will be as a Jebusite.^[b]
8 I will set a garrison around my Temple,
    to hinder those who might come and go,
and to guard against oppressors who intend to invade;
    for I have taken note of this with my eyes.”
