Zechariah 9:9 - 9:13

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion!

Make a loud shout, O daughter of Jerusalem!

Behold, your king is coming to you;

He is righteous and endowed with salvation,

Lowly and mounted on a donkey,

Even on a colt, the foal of a pack animal.

I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim

And the horse from Jerusalem;

And the bow of war will be cut off.

And He will speak peace to the nations;

And His reign will be from sea to sea

And from the River to the ends of the earth.

As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant,

I have set your prisoners free from the waterless pit.

Return to the stronghold, O prisoners who have the hope;

This very day I am declaring that I will return double to you.

For I will bend Judah as My bow;

I will fill the bow with Ephraim.

And I will rouse up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece;

And I will make you like a mighty man’s sword.
