Rejoice with all your heart, daughter of Tziyon! Shout out loud, daughter of Yerushalayim! Look! Your king is coming to you. He is righteous, and he is victorious. Yet he is humble — he’s riding on a donkey, yes, on a lowly donkey’s colt. I will banish chariots from Efrayim and war-horses from Yerushalayim.” The warrior’s bow will be banished, and he will proclaim peace to the nations. He will rule from sea to sea, and from the [Euphrates] River to the ends of the earth. “Also you, by the blood of your covenant, I release your prisoners from [the dungeon,] the cistern that has no water in it. Return to the stronghold, you prisoners with hope! This day I declare to you that I will grant you double reparation. For I have bent Y’hudah as my bow and made Efrayim its arrow. I will rouse your sons, Tziyon, Zechariah 9
