Zechariah 9:6

Judgment Of Zion's Enemies

⁵ Ashkelon will see it and be afraid;
Gaza too, and will writhe in great pain,
as will Ekron, for her hope will fail.
There will cease to be a king in Gaza,
and Ashkelon will become uninhabited.
⁶ A mongrel people will live in Ashdod,
and I will destroy the pride of the Philistines.
⁷ I will remove the blood from their mouths
and the detestable things
from between their teeth.
Then they too will become a remnant for our God;
they will become like a clan in Judah
and Ekron like the Jebusites.

to disgrace all the honored ones of the earth.

which is on the summit above the rich valley.

Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt, and glorify the King of heaven, because all His works are true and His ways are just. He is able to humble those who walk in pride.

because they have taunted and acted arrogantly
against the people of the Lord of Hosts.
