Bible. Zechariah
38:009:009 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of
Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and
having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a
colt the foal of an ass.
38:009:010 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse
from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he
shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be
from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of
the earth.
38:009:011 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent
forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
38:009:012 Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day
do I declare that I will render double unto thee;
38:009:013 When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim,
and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece,
and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.
38:009:014 And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go
forth as the lightning: and the LORD God shall blow the
trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.
38:009:015 The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour,
and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a
noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls,
and as the corners of the altar.
38:009:016 And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the
flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a
crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.
38:009:017 For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty!
corn shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the
maids.
38:010:001 Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain; so the
LORD shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain,
to every one grass in the field.
38:010:002 For the idols have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a
lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain:
therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled,
because there was no shepherd.
38:010:003 Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished
the goats: for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the
house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the
battle.
38:010:004 Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, out of
him the battle bow, out of him every oppressor together.
38:010:005 And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their
enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they
shall fight, because the LORD is with them, and the riders on
horses shall be confounded.
