Zechariah 9 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

Zec 9:1

Zec 9:1The burden of the word of Jehovah, in the land of Hadrach, and on Damascus shall it rest; (for Jehovah hath an eye upon men, and upon all the tribes of Israel;)

Zec 9:2

Zec 9:2and also on Hamath which bordereth thereon; on Tyre and Zidon, though she be very wise.

Zec 9:3

Zec 9:3And Tyre hath built herself a stronghold, and hath heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.

Zec 9:4

Zec 9:4Behold, the Lord will take possession of her, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.

Zec 9:5

Zec 9:5Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gazah also, and she shall be greatly pained; Ekron also, for her expectation shall be put to shame: and the king shall perish from Gazah, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.

Zec 9:6

Zec 9:6And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines;

Zec 9:7

Zec 9:7and I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth; but he that remaineth, he also shall belong to our God, and shall be as a leader in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.

Zec 9:8

Zec 9:8And I will encamp about my house because of the army, because of those that pass by and that return; and the exactor shall not pass through them any more: for now have I seen it with mine eyes.

Zec 9:9

Zec 9:9Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion; shout, daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, thy King cometh to thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.

Zec 9:10

Zec 9:10And 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 nations; and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.

Deliverance of Judah and Ephraim

Zec 9:11As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant, I will send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

Zec 9:12Turn again to the stronghold, prisoners of hope! even to-day do I declare I will render double unto thee.

Zec 9:13

Zec 9:13For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will raise up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and make thee like the sword of a mighty man.

Zec 9:14

Zec 9:14And Jehovah shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning; and the Lord Jehovah will blow the trumpet, and will march with whirlwinds of the south.

Zec 9:15

Zec 9:15Jehovah of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour, and shall tread down the sling-stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as from wine; and they shall be filled like a bowl, like the corners of the altar.

Zec 9:16

Zec 9:16And Jehovah 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 upon his land.

Zec 9:17

Zec 9:17For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! Corn shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the maidens.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
