The Coming King
Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, byour King is coming to you;
He is just and having salvation,
Lowly and riding on a donkey,
A colt, the foal of a donkey.
And the horse from Jerusalem;
The bbattle bow shall be cut off.
He shall speak peace to the nations;
His dominion shall be c‘from sea to sea,
And from the River to the ends of the earth.’
God Will Save His People
Because of the blood of your covenant,
I will set your aprisoners free from the waterless pit.
aYou prisoners of hope.
Even today I declare
That I will restore bdouble to you.
Fitted the bow with Ephraim,
And raised up your sons, O Zion,
Against your sons, O Greece,
And made you like the sword of a mighty man.”
And aHis arrow will go forth like lightning.
The Lord God will blow the trumpet,
And go bwith whirlwinds from the south.
They shall devour and subdue with slingstones.
They shall drink and roar as if with wine;
They shall be filled with blood like1 basins,
Like the corners of the altar.
As the flock of His people.
For bthey shall be like the jewels of a crown,
cLifted like a banner over His land—
And how great its bbeauty!
cGrain shall make the young men thrive,
And new wine the young women.
