Zechariah 9:9-10 (New Living Translation)


Zion’s Coming King


Rejoice, O people of Zion![a]
    Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem!
Look, your king is coming to you.
    He is righteous and victorious,[b]
yet he is humble, riding on a donkey—
    riding on a donkey’s colt.
10 I will remove the battle chariots from Israel[c]
    and the warhorses from Jerusalem.
I will destroy all the weapons used in battle,
    and your king will bring peace to the nations.
His realm will stretch from sea to sea
    and from the Euphrates River[d] to the ends of the earth.[e]

  1. So? Now radio discussions are turned in to bible-bangers in all their fictitious 'glory'?

    Oh Joy - Oh Joy
    Santa brought me a new toy.
    Oh Joy - Oh Joy
    Radioland is now filled with "The boy".

    He was born in a manger in air that was cold
    But three dudes on camels can to help him - or so we are told.
    They put up his tower and hooked up his rig
    And the little baby boy stood and did a cool jig

    He got on the air and called out to the land
    "My virgin mommy could sure use a quick hand"
    I'm formin' a church that folks will say is so funny
    Because the first thing i did was ask them for money

    Yea right.

    Singy-song-singy-song - this story is all wrong!
