(A)Ashkelon shall see it, and be afraid;
    Gaza too, and shall writhe in anguish;
    Ekron also, because its hopes are confounded.
The king shall perish from Gaza;
    Ashkelon shall be uninhabited;
(B)a mixed people[a] shall dwell in Ashdod,
    and I will cut off the pride of Philistia.
I will take away (C)its blood from its mouth,
    and (D)its abominations from between its teeth;
(E)it too shall be a remnant for our God;
    it shall be like (F)a clan in Judah,
    and Ekron shall be like the Jebusites.
