I will set a garrison around my Temple,
    to hinder those who might come and go,
and to guard against oppressors who intend to invade;
    for I have taken note of this with my eyes.”

The Coming of Zion’s King

“Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion;
    cry out, daughter of Jerusalem!
Look! Your king is coming to you.
    He is righteous,
        and he is able to save.
He is humble,
    and is riding on a colt,
        the foal of a donkey.
10 I will banish[a] chariots from Ephraim
    and horses from Jerusalem.
War weapons[b] will be banished,
    and your king[c] will speak peace to the nations.
His dominion will extend from sea to sea,
    and from the River to the farthest portion of the earth.
