Now come prophecies about judgment for the nations and about the coming Messiah. "Tyre has built a stronghold and amassed wealth, but the Lord will take away her possessions... Ashkelon will see it and fear... Gaza will writhe in agony... and Ekron too... foreigners will occupy Ashdod... and those left will belong to God... and never again will an oppressor overrun my people". Now rejoice Zion!... your king comes to you... gentle and riding on a donkey... he will proclaim peace to the nations. His rule will extend from sea to sea... and the Lord will appear and the Sovereign Lord will sound the trumpet... the Lord their God will save them on that day... they will sparkle in the land like jewels in a crown!"
