Zechariah 9:9
New King James Version
The Coming King(A)
9 “Rejoice (B)greatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, (C)your King is coming to you;
He is just and having salvation,
Lowly and riding on a donkey,
A colt, the foal of a donkey.
Matthew 21:2-7
New King James Version
2 saying to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Loose them and bring them to Me. 3 And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord has need of them,’ and immediately he will send them.”
4 [a]All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying:
5 “Tell(A) the daughter of Zion,
‘Behold, your King is coming to you,
Lowly, and sitting on a donkey,
A colt, the foal of a donkey.’ ”
6 (B)So the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt, (C)laid their clothes on them, [b]and set Him on them.
