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)

8 (A)I will camp around My house
Because of the army,
Because of him who passes by and him who returns.
No more shall an oppressor pass through them,
For now I have seen with My eyes.
The Coming King(B)
9 “Rejoice (C)greatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, (D)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.
10 I (E)will cut off the chariot from Ephraim
And the horse from Jerusalem;
The (F)battle bow shall be cut off.
He shall speak peace to the nations;
His dominion shall be (G)‘from sea to sea,
And from the River to the ends of the earth.’
