Zechariah 9:5
Compare all
3 For Tyre built herself a tower,
Heaped up silver like the dust,
And gold like the mire of the streets.
4 Behold, athe Lord will cast her out;
He will destroy bher power in the sea,
And she will be devoured by fire. 
5 Ashkelon shall see it and fear;
Gaza also shall be very sorrowful;
And aEkron, for He dried up her expectation.
The king shall perish from Gaza,
And Ashkelon shall not be inhabited. 
6 “A1 mixed race shall settle ain Ashdod,
And I will cut off the pride of the bPhilistines. 
7 I will take away the blood from his mouth,
And the abominations from between his teeth.
But he who remains, even he shall be for our God,
And shall be like a leader in Judah,
And Ekron like a Jebusite.
8 aI will camp around My house
Because of the army,
Because of him who passes by and him who returns.
No more shall an oppressor pass through them,
For now I have seen with My eyes. 

The Coming King

9 “Rejoice agreatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, byour King is coming to you;
He is just and having salvation,
Lowly and riding on a donkey,
A colt, the foal of a donkey.

Zechariah 9:5

Ashkelon shall see it, and fear - All these prophecies seem to have been fulfilled before the days of Zechariah; another evidence that these last chapters were not written by him.

Her expectation shalt be ashamed - The expectation of being succoured by Tyre.
