Zechariah 9:8-10
New International Version
8 But I will encamp(A) at my temple
to guard it against marauding forces.(B)
Never again will an oppressor overrun my people,
for now I am keeping watch.(C)
The Coming of Zion’s King
9 Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion!(D)
Shout,(E) Daughter Jerusalem!
See, your king comes to you,(F)
righteous and victorious,(G)
lowly and riding on a donkey,(H)
on a colt, the foal of a donkey.(I)
10 I will take away the chariots from Ephraim
and the warhorses from Jerusalem,
and the battle bow will be broken.(J)
He will proclaim peace(K) to the nations.
His rule will extend from sea to sea
and from the River[a] to the ends of the earth.(L)

Zechariah 9:8-10
King James Version
8 And I will encamp about mine house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes.
9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth.
