⁹ Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion!
Shout in triumph, Daughter Jerusalem!
Look, your King is coming to you;
He is righteous and victorious,^[a]
humble and riding on a donkey,
on a colt, the foal of a donkey.^(A)

⁷ Instead He emptied Himself^(A)
by assuming the form of a slave,^(B)
taking on the likeness of men.^(C)
And when He had come as a man
in His external form,
⁸ He humbled Himself by becoming obedient
to the point of death—
even to death on a cross.^(D)
