Zechariah 9:7-9

New Living Translation

⁷ I will grab the bloody meat from their mouths
    and snatch the detestable sacrifices from their teeth.
Then the surviving Philistines will worship our God
    and become like a clan in Judah.^[a]
The Philistines of Ekron will join my people,
    as the ancient Jebusites once did.
⁸ I will guard my Temple
    and protect it from invading armies.
I am watching closely to ensure
    that no more foreign oppressors overrun my people’s land.
