(Zec 9:2) And Hamath also shall border thereby; Tyrus, and Zidon, though it be very wise.

(Zec 9:4) Behold, the Lord will cast her out, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.

(Zec 9:7) 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.
(Zec 9:8) 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.
(Zec 9:9) 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.
(Zec 9:10) 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.
(Zec 9:11) As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein {is} no water.

(Zec 9:13) 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.

(Zec 9:16) 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.
(Zec 9:17) For how great {is} his goodness, and how great {is} his beauty! corn shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids.
