Zechariah 9:7-9
EasyEnglish Bible
7 I will take the blood from their mouths.
I will take the food from their teeth, because it is bad food.
Those that remain will still be my people.
They will become leaders in Judah.
Ekron will be like a part of Judah, as the Jebusites were.
8 Then I will keep my house safe against my enemies.
No army will ever again beat my people,
because I am watching them.
The king of Zion comes
9 Sing loudly, people in Zion.
Shout, people in Jerusalem.
Look! Your king comes to you.
He will save you because he does everything well.
But he is quiet and he is riding on a donkey.
He will ride on a young animal. Its mother is a donkey.

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)
