And I will cut off the pride of the Ezek. 25:15–17Philistines.
7 I will take away the blood from his mouth,
And the abominations from between his teeth.
But he who remains, even he shallbe for our God,
And shall be like a leader in Judah,
And Ekronlike a Jebusite.
8 (Ps. 34:7)I will camp around My house
Because of the army,
Because of him who passes by and him who returns.
No more shall an oppressor pass through them,
For now I have seen with My eyes.
The Coming King
9 "Rejoice Zeph. 3:14, 15; Zech. 2:10greatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, (Ps. 110:1; Is. 9:6, 7; Jer. 23:5, 6); Matt. 21:5; Mark 11:7, 9; Luke 19:38; John 12:15your King is coming to you;
He is just and having salvation,
Lowly and riding on a donkey,
A colt, the foal of a donkey.
10 I Hos. 1:7; Mic. 5:10will cut off the chariot from Ephraim
And the horse from Jerusalem;
The Ps. 46:9; Is. 2:4; Hos. 2:18; Mic. 4:3battle bow shall be cut off.
He shall speak peace to the nations;
His dominion shallbePs. 72:8‘from sea to sea,
And from the Riverto the ends of the earth.’
God Will Save His People
11 "As for you also,
Because of the blood of your covenant,
I will set your Is. 42:7prisoners free from the waterless pit.
12 Return to the stronghold,
Is. 49:9; Jer. 17:13; Heb. 6:18–20You prisoners of hope.
Even today I declare
That I will restore Is. 61:7double to you.
13 For I have bent Judah, My bow,
Fitted the bow with Ephraim,
And raised up your sons, O Zion,
Against your sons, O Greece,
And made you like the sword of a mighty man."
14 Then the Lord will be seen over them,
And Ps. 18:14; Hab. 3:11His arrow will go forth like lightning.
The Lord God will blow the trumpet,
And go Is. 21:1with whirlwinds from the south.
15 The Lord of hosts will Is. 37:35; Zech. 12:8defend them;
They shall devour and subdue with slingstones.
They shall drink and roar as if with wine;
They shall be filled withblood like basins,
Like the corners of the altar.
16 The Lord their God will Jer. 31:10, 11save them in that day,
As the flock of His people.
For Is. 62:3; Mal. 3:17they shallbelike the jewels of a crown,
Is. 11:12Lifted like a banner over His land—
17 For (Ps. 31:19)how great is its goodness
And how great its (Ps. 45:1–16)beauty!
Joel 3:18Grain shall make the young men thrive,
And new wine the young women.
