Rh :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.
 * 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.
 * As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant
 * I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
 * Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope:
 * Even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee;
 * 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.
 * 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.
 * The Lord of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour,
 * And subdue with sling stones;
