JOHN 12:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 1 0

“Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass’s colt.”

'Do not be afraid, O Daughter of Zion; see, your king comes, sitting on a donkey's colt' — the quotation combines Zechariah 9:9 with Isaiah 40:9, presenting the messianic king as one coming not in power but in humility, not provoking fear (as earthly rulers do) but inviting trust. The address to 'Daughter of Zion' (personification of Jerusalem) frames the entry as the arrival of the promised messianic king.
