  Ah, okay, thanks.  Not very familiar with Acts, as you might guess.
(Ashdod is translated as "Azotus" in the Douay-Rheims version for all
the word's appearances in the Hebrew Bible: Joshua 11:22, 15:46-47, 1
Sam 5:1-7, 6:17, 2 Chron 26:6. Nehemiah 13:23-4, Isa 20:1, Jer. 25:20,
Amos 1:8, 3:9, Zeph. 2:4, Zech. 9:6)

  But even given your reference, wasn't that ba'e ba lo nu tavla?
