² Let Israel have joy in his maker; let the children of Zion be glad in their King.

⁹ Be full of joy, O daughter of Zion; give a glad cry, O daughter of Jerusalem: see, your king comes to you: he is upright and has overcome; gentle and seated on an ass, on a young ass.

⁶ O come, let us give worship, falling down on our knees before the Lord our Maker.

¹⁰ But no one has said, Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night;

²⁷ And as for those who were against me, who would not have me for their ruler, let them come here, and be put to death before me.

³⁸ Saying, A blessing on the King who comes in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven and glory in the highest.

¹⁵ Then they gave a loud cry, Away with him! away with him! to the cross! Pilate said to them, Am I to put your King to death on the cross? The chief priests said in answer, We have no king but Caesar.

¹⁹ And Pilate put on the cross a statement in writing. The writing was: JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

²⁰ The writing was seen by a number of the Jews, for the place where Jesus was put to death on the cross was near the town; and the writing was in Hebrew and Latin and Greek.

²¹ Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, Do not put, The King of the Jews, but, He said, I am the King of the Jews.

²² But Pilate made answer, What I have put in writing will not be changed.

³ For we are the circumcision, who give worship to God and have glory in Jesus Christ, and have no faith in the flesh:

⁶ And there came to my ears the voice of a great army, like the sound of waters, and the sound of loud thunders, saying, Praise to the Lord: for the Lord our God, Ruler of all, is King.

³⁴ Then will the King say to those on his right, Come, you who have the blessing of my Father, into the kingdom made ready for you before the world was:

⁵ Say to the daughter of Zion, See, your King comes to you, gentle and seated on an ass, and on a young ass.

²³ Be glad, then, you children of Zion, and have joy in the Lord your God: for he gives you food in full measure, making the rain come down for you, the early and the late rain as at the first.

⁷ There you and all your families are to make a feast before the Lord your God, with joy in everything to which you put your hand, because the Lord has given you his blessing.

²² For the Lord will not give his people up, because of the honour of his name; for it was the Lord's pleasure to make of you a people for himself.

⁶ Give praises to God, make songs of praise; give praises to our King, make songs of praise.

¹ <A Psalm of Praise.> Make a glad sound to the Lord, all the earth.

² Give worship to the Lord with joy; come before him with a song.

³ Be certain that the Lord is God; it is he who has made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep to whom he gives food.

³ Give praise to Jah, for he is good: make melody to his name, for it is pleasing.

⁴ For the Lord has taken Jacob for himself, and Israel for his property.

⁷ How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who comes with good news, who gives word of peace, saying that salvation is near; who says to Zion, Your God is ruling!

⁵ For your Maker is your husband; the Lord of armies is his name: and the Holy One of Israel is he who takes up your cause; he will be named the God of all the earth.
