Zechariah 9:9-10
The Message
A Humble King Riding a Donkey
9-10 “Shout and cheer, Daughter Zion!
Raise your voice, Daughter Jerusalem!
Your king is coming!
a good king who makes all things right,
a humble king riding a donkey,
a mere colt of a donkey.
I’ve had it with war—no more chariots in Ephraim,
no more war horses in Jerusalem,
no more swords and spears, bows and arrows.
He will offer peace to the nations,
a peaceful rule worldwide,
from the four winds to the seven seas.

lowly and riding on a donkey,(E)
on a colt, the foal of a donkey.(F)

and the warhorses from Jerusalem,
and the battle bow will be broken.(G)
He will proclaim peace(H) to the nations.
His rule will extend from sea to sea
and from the River[a] to the ends of the earth.(I)
