7But I will sendH7971 a fireH784 on the wallH2346 of GazaH5804, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 thereof:
8And I will cutH3772 offH3772 the inhabitantH3427 from AshdodH795, and him that holdeth the sceptre from AshkelonH831; and I will turnH7725 mine handH3027 againstH5921 EkronH6138, and the remnantH7611 of the PhilistinesH6430 shall perishH6, saith the LordH136 GODH136.

10but I will sendH7971 a fireH784 on the wallH2346 of TyreH6865, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 thereof.

12but I will sendH7971 a fireH784 uponH784 TemanH8487, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 of BozrahH1224.
