King James Version
This
is
the burden of the word of the LORD against
the land of Hadrach and Damascus its
resting
place—
for
the eyes of men
and
of all the tribes of Israel are
upon
the LORD —
The burden of the word of the LORD in
the land of Hadrach ,
and Damascus shall
be
the rest
thereof:
when
the
eyes of man,
as
of all the tribes of Israel ,
shall
be
toward
the LORD .
and also
against
Hamath ,
which
borders
it
, as
well
as
Tyre
and Sidon
, though they
are
very shrewd
.
And Hamath also
shall
border
thereby;
Tyrus
, and Zidon
, though it
be
very wise
.
Tyre
has
built
herself a fortress;
she
has
heaped up silver like
dust, and gold like
the dirt
of the streets.
And
Tyrus
did
build
herself a strong
hold,
and
heaped up silver as
the
dust, and fine
gold as
the mire
of the streets.
Behold, the Lord will impoverish
her and cast
her wealth
into
the sea ,
and she will
be consumed
by
fire.
Behold, the LORD will cast
her out,
and he
will
smite
her power
in
the sea ;
and she shall
be devoured
with
fire.
Ashkelon will
see and fear; Gaza will
writhe
in
agony
, as
will
Ekron
, for her hope
will
wither.
There
will
cease
to
be a
king in
Gaza, and Ashkelon will
be uninhabited
.
Ashkelon shall
see it,
and fear; Gaza also
shall
see
it
, and
be
very
sorrowful
, and
Ekron;
for her expectation
shall
be ashamed;
and
the
king shall
perish
from
Gaza, and Ashkelon shall
not
be inhabited
.
A mixed
race
will
occupy
Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
And
a bastard
shall
dwell
in
Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
I will remove
the
blood from
their
mouths
and the
abominations from between their
teeth .
Then
they
too
will
become
a
remnant
for our God ;
they
will
become
like
a clan
in Judah, and Ekron will
be
like
the
Jebusites
.
And
I will take
away
his
blood out
of
his
mouth,
and his
abominations from between his
teeth :
but
he
that
remaineth,
even
he,
shall
be
for our God ,
and
he
shall
be
as
a governor
in Judah, and Ekron as
a
Jebusite
.
But
I will camp
around
My
house because of an
army, because of those
who
march
to
and
fro
, and never
again
will
an
oppressor overrun
My
people,
for now I keep
watch
with My
own
eyes.
And
I will encamp
about
mine
house because of the
army, because of him
that
passeth
by
, and because
of
him
that
returneth:
and
no
oppressor shall
pass
through
them
any
more:
for now have
I seen
with mine
eyes.
Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Zion !
Shout in
triumph
, O Daughter of Jerusalem !
See
, your
King comes
to
you
, righteous
and victorious
, humble
and riding on
a
donkey
, on
a colt ,
the foal of a
donkey
.
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion ;
shout, O daughter of Jerusalem :
behold
, thy
King cometh
unto
thee:
he
is
just
, and having
salvation;
lowly
, and riding upon
an
ass
, and
upon
a colt the foal of an
ass
.
And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim and the horse from Jerusalem, and the bow of
war
will
be broken.
Then
He will
proclaim
peace to
the nations.
His dominion will
extend
from sea to sea, and from the Euphrates
to the ends of the earth.
And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim ,
and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle
bow shall
be cut
off:
and
he shall
speak
peace unto
the heathen:
and
his dominion shall
be
from sea even
to sea, and from the river
even
to the ends of the earth.
As for you
, because
of
the blood of My
covenant ,
I will
release
your
prisoners from
the waterless
pit.
As for thee
also
, by
the blood of thy
covenant I have
sent
forth
thy
prisoners out
of
the pit wherein
is
no
water
.
Return
to your
stronghold
, O
prisoners of hope ;
even today
I declare that I will restore
to
you
double .
Turn
you
to the
strong
hold
, ye
prisoners of hope :
even to
day
do
I declare that I will render
double unto
thee;
For
I will
bend
Judah as
My
bow and
fit
it
with Ephraim .
I
will
rouse
your
sons, O Zion, against the
sons of
Greece .
I
will
make
you
like
the sword of a mighty man.
When
I have
bent
Judah for
me,
filled
the
bow with Ephraim ,
and
raised
up
thy
sons, O Zion, against thy
sons ,
O
Greece ,
and
made
thee
as
the sword of a mighty man.
Then
the LORD will
appear
over them, and His arrow will
go forth like
lightning .
The Lord GOD will
sound
the ram’s
horn
and advance
in
the
whirlwinds of the south.
And
the LORD shall
be
seen
over them, and his arrow shall
go forth as
the
lightning :
and
the LORD God shall
blow
the trumpet,
and shall
go
with
whirlwinds of the south.
The LORD of Hosts will
shield
them .
They will
destroy
and conquer
with slingstones
; they will
drink and roar
as with
wine .
And they will
be filled like sprinkling
bowls, drenched
like
the corners of the altar.
The LORD of hosts shall
defend
them ;
and
they shall
devour,
and subdue
with sling
stones
; and
they shall
drink ,
and make
a
noise
as through
wine ;
and they shall
be filled like bowls, and
as
the corners of the altar.
On
that
day
the LORD their God will
save them as the flock of His people ;
for like
jewels
in
a crown they
will
sparkle
over
His land.
And
the LORD their God shall
save them in
that
day
as the flock of his people :
for they
shall
be
as
the
stones
of
a crown ,
lifted
up
as
an
ensign
upon
his land.
How lovely
they
will
be
, and how beautiful
! Grain
will
make the young men flourish
, and new wine ,
the young
women
.
For
how great
is
his
goodness
, and how great
is
his
beauty
! corn
shall
make the young men cheerful
, and new wine the maids
.
