Zechariah 9:9-17 - The Coming Of Zion's King
9
Shout in triumph, Daughter Jerusalem!
Look, your King is coming to you;
He is righteous and victorious,
humble and riding on a donkey,
on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
and the horse from Jerusalem.
The bow of war will be removed,
and He will proclaim peace to the nations.
His dominion will extend from sea to sea,
from the Euphrates River
to the ends of the earth.
because of the blood of your covenant,
I will release your prisoners
from the waterless cistern.
you prisoners who have hope;
today I declare that I will restore double to you.
I will fill that bow with Ephraim.
I will rouse your sons, Zion,
against your sons, Greece.
I will make you like a warrior’s sword.
and His arrow will fly like lightning.
The Lord God will sound the trumpet
and advance with the southern storms.
They will consume and conquer with slingstones;
they will drink and be rowdy as if with wine.
They will be as full as the sprinkling basin,
like those at the corners of the altar.
as the flock of His people;
for they are like jewels in a crown,
sparkling over His land.
Grain will make the young men flourish,
and new wine, the young women.
