Zechariah 9:7-9
International Children’s Bible
7 I will stop them from drinking blood.
They will not eat any other forbidden food.
Those left alive will belong to God.
They will be leaders in Judah.
And Ekron will become part of my people like the Jebusites.
8 I will protect my Temple
from armies who come and go.
No one will hurt my people again
because now I am guarding it.
The King Is Coming
9 Rejoice, people of Jerusalem.
Shout for joy, people of Jerusalem.
Your king is coming to you.
He does what is right, and he saves.
He is gentle and riding on a donkey.
He is on the colt of a donkey.

7 I will take the blood from their mouths,
the forbidden food from between their teeth.
Those who are left will belong to our God(A)
and become a clan in Judah,
and Ekron will be like the Jebusites.(B)
8 But I will encamp(C) at my temple
to guard it against marauding forces.(D)
Never again will an oppressor overrun my people,
for now I am keeping watch.(E)
