Zechariah 9 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
Zion's Coming King
9 Rejoice greatly, o daughter of Sion, make jubilation, o daughter of Jerusalem: BEHOLD THY KING will come to thee, the just & saviour: himself poor, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
10 And I will destroy chariot out of Ephraim, and horse out of Jerusalem, and the bow of war shall be dissipated: and he shall speak peace to the Gentiles, and his power from sea even to sea, and from the rivers even to the end of the earth.
11 Thou also in the blood of thy testament hast let forth thy prisoners out of the lake, wherein is no water.
12 Convert to the munition ye prisoners of hope, to day also declaring I will render thee double.
13 Because I have bent Juda for me as a bow, I have filled Ephraim: and I will raise up thy sons o Sion upon thy sons o Greece, and I will make thee as the sword of the strong.
LORD Will Save His People
14 And our Lord God shall be seen over them, and his dart shall go forth as lightning: and our Lord God will sound with trumpet, and will go in the whirlwind of the South.
15 The Lord of hosts will protect them: and they shall devour, and subdue with the stones of the sling: and drinking they shall be drunk as it were of wine, & they shall be filled as phials, and the horns of the altar.
16 And our Lord their God will save them in that day, as the flock of his people: because holy stones shall be elevated over his land.
17 For what is his good thing, and what is his beautiful thing, but the corn of the elect, and wine springing virgins?
