And they removed him from the chariot into another, that followed him after the manner of kings: and they carried him away to Jerusalem. And he died, and was buried in the monument of his fathers. And all Juda and Jerusalem mourned for him,

And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all tribes of the earth mourn: and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with much power and majesty.
