⁷⁴     that we, being rescued from the hands of our enemies,
might serve him without fear,^(A)

¹⁵ The Lord has taken away the judgments against you;
    he has turned away your enemies.
The king of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst;
    you shall fear disaster no more.^(A)
16 On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem:
“Do not fear, O Zion;
    do not let your hands grow weak.^(B)
17 The Lord, your God, is in your midst,
    a warrior who gives victory;
he will rejoice over you with gladness;
    he will renew you^[a] in his love;
he will exult over you with loud singing^(C)

¹³ All your children shall be taught by the Lord,
    and great shall be the prosperity of your children.^(A)
14 In righteousness you shall be established;
    you shall be far from oppression; indeed, you shall not fear;
    and from terror; indeed, it shall not come near you.^(B)

⁸ Then I will encamp at my house as a guard,
    so that no one shall march to and fro;
no oppressor shall again overrun them,
    for now I have seen with my own eyes.^(A)

⁹ Rejoice greatly, O daughter Zion!
    Shout aloud, O daughter Jerusalem!
See, your king comes to you;
    triumphant and victorious is he,
humble and riding on a donkey,
    on a colt, the foal of a donkey.^(B)
10 He^[a] will cut off the chariot from Ephraim
    and the war horse from Jerusalem;
and the battle bow shall be cut off,
    and he shall command peace to the nations;
his dominion shall be from sea to sea
    and from the River to the ends of the earth.^(C)
