Meekness » Christ set an example of
For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you should follow in his footsteps, who did not commit sin, nor was deceit found in his mouth, who [when he] was reviled, did not revile in return; [when] suffering, he did not threaten, but entrusted [himself] to the one who judges justly,
"Say to the daughter of Zion, 'Behold, your king is coming to you, humble and mounted on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a pack animal.'"
Now I, Paul, appeal to you myself by the humility and gentleness of Christ, who {when I am present in person} [am] humble among you, but [when I] am absent am bold toward you--
Take my yoke on you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was brought like lamb to [the] slaughter, and like a sheep is dumb before its shearers, so he did not open his mouth.
And [in] your majesty {ride victoriously}, because of truth and humility [and] righteousness. And let your right hand teach you awesome deeds.

Your arrows [are] sharp; peoples fall under you in the midst of the king's enemies. Your throne, O God, [is] forever and ever. A scepter of uprightness [is] the scepter of your kingdom. You love righteousness and hate wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you from among your companions [with] festive oil. All your robes [are scented with] myrrh and aloes [and] cassia. From palaces of ivory stringed instruments gladden you. Kings' daughters [are] among your noble ladies. The queen stands at your right hand in gold of Ophir. Hear, O daughter, and {discern} and incline your ear, and forget your people and your father's house. Let the king desire your beauty. Because he [is] your lord, therefore bow down to him. Even the daughter of Tyre [will come] with a gift. [The] rich from among people will seek your {favor}. The king's daughter is all glorious within; her garment [is] of gold embroidered cloth. She is brought to the king [in] colorful garments. [The] young women behind her, her attendants, [are] being brought to you. They are led with joy and gladness. They enter [the] palace of [the] king. In place of your fathers will be your sons. You will make them princes in all the land. I will cause your name to be remembered in all generations; therefore peoples will praise you forever and ever.
