Zechariah 9:5-7
New King James Version
Zechariah 9:5-7
New King James Version
5 Ashkelon shall see it and fear;
Gaza also shall be very sorrowful;
And (A)Ekron, for He dried up her expectation.
The king shall perish from Gaza,
And Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
6 “A[a] mixed race shall settle (B)in Ashdod,
And I will cut off the pride of the (C)Philistines.
7 I will take away the blood from his mouth,
And the abominations from between his teeth.
But he who remains, even he shall be for our God,
And shall be like a leader in Judah,
And Ekron like a Jebusite.

New International Version
Zechariah 9:5-7
New International Version
5 Ashkelon(A) will see it and fear;
Gaza will writhe in agony,
and Ekron too, for her hope will wither.
Gaza will lose her king
and Ashkelon will be deserted.
6 A mongrel people will occupy Ashdod,
and I will put an end(B) to the pride of the Philistines.
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(C)
and become a clan in Judah,
and Ekron will be like the Jebusites.(D)
