Zechariah 9:5-7

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ Ash′kelon shall see it, and be afraid;
    Gaza too, and shall writhe in anguish;
    Ekron also, because its hopes are confounded.
The king shall perish from Gaza;
    Ash′kelon shall be uninhabited;
⁶ a mongrel people shall dwell in Ashdod;
    and I will make an end of the pride of Philistia.
⁷ I will take away its blood from its mouth,
    and its abominations from between its teeth;
it too shall be a remnant for our God;
    it shall be like a clan in Judah,
    and Ekron shall be like the Jeb′usites.
