• Amos 1:6-8
    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures

    •  6 This is what Jehovah says,

      ‘“For three revolts of Gazʹa,+ and for four, I will not reverse it,

      Because they took a whole group of exiles+ to hand them over to Eʹdom.

       7 So I will send a fire onto the wall of Gazʹa,+

      And it will consume her fortified towers.

       8 I will destroy the inhabitants from Ashʹdod,+

      And the one ruling* from Ashʹke·lon;+

      I will turn my hand against Ekʹron,+

      And the remaining Phi·lisʹtines will perish,”+ says the Sovereign Lord Jehovah.’

  • Zechariah 9:5, 6
    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures

    •  5 Ashʹke·lon will see it and be afraid;

      Gazʹa will feel great anguish,

      Also Ekʹron, because her hope is put to shame.

      A king will perish from Gazʹa,

      And Ashʹke·lon will not be inhabited.+

       6 An illegitimate son will settle in Ashʹdod,

      And I will do away with the pride of the Phi·lisʹtine.+
