Zechariah 9:7-9
American Standard Version
7 And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth; and he also shall be a remnant for our God; and he shall be as a chieftain in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
8 And I will encamp about my house [a]against the army, that none pass through or return; and no [b]oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes.
9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy king cometh unto thee; he is just, and [c]having [d]salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.

Zechariah 9:7-9
New International Version
7 I will take the blood from their mouths,
the forbidden food from between their teeth.
Those who are left will belong to our God(A)
and become a clan in Judah,
and Ekron will be like the Jebusites.(B)
8 But I will encamp(C) at my temple
to guard it against marauding forces.(D)
Never again will an oppressor overrun my people,
for now I am keeping watch.(E)
