Then a ashoot will spring
from the bstem
of Jesse
, And a cbranch
from dhis roots
will bear
fruit
.
The aSpirit of the LORD
will rest
on Him, The spirit
of bwisdom
and understanding
, The spirit
of counsel
and cstrength
, The spirit
of knowledge
and the fear
of the LORD
.
And He will delight in the fear
of the LORD
, And He will not judge
by what
His eyes
asee
, Nor
make
a decision
by what
His ears
hear
;
But with arighteousness He will judge
the bpoor
, And decide
with fairness
for the cafflicted
of the earth
; And He will strike
the earth
with the drod
of His mouth
, And with the ebreath
of His lips
He will slay
the wicked
.
Also arighteousness will be the belt
about His loins
, And bfaithfulness
the belt
about His waist
.
And the awolf will dwell
with the lamb
, And the leopard
will lie
down
with the young
goat
, And the calf
and the young
lion
1and the fatling
together
; And a little
boy
will lead
them.
Also the cow and the bear
will graze
, Their young
will lie
down
together
, And the alion
will eat
straw
like the ox
.
The nursing child will play
by the hole
of the cobra
, And the weaned
child will put
his hand
on the viper's
den
.
They will anot hurt or destroy
in all
My holy
mountain
, For the bearth
will be full
of the knowledge
of the LORD
As the waters
cover
the sea
.
Then in that day The anations
will resort
to the broot
of Jesse
, Who
will stand
as a 1 csignal
for the peoples
; And His dresting
place
will be 2glorious
.
Then it will happen on that day
that the Lord
Will again
recover
the second
time
with His hand
The aremnant
of His people
, who
will remain
, From bAssyria
, cEgypt
, Pathros
, Cush
, dElam
, Shinar
, Hamath
, And from the 1 eislands
of the sea
.
And He will lift up a astandard
for the nations
And bassemble
the banished
ones of Israel
, And will gather
the dispersed
of Judah
From the four
corners
of the earth
.
Then the ajealousy of Ephraim
will depart
, And those who harass
Judah
will be cut
off
; Ephraim
will not be jealous
of Judah
, And Judah
will not harass
Ephraim
.
They will aswoop down
on the slopes
of the Philistines
on the bwest
; Together
they will cplunder
the sons
of the east
; 1They will possess
dEdom
and eMoab
, And the sons
of Ammon
will be 2subject
to them.
And the LORD will 1 autterly
destroy
The tongue
of the 2Sea
of Egypt
; And He will bwave
His hand
over
the 3 cRiver
With His scorching
wind
; And He will strike
it into seven
streams
And make men walk
over 4dry-shod
.
And there will be a ahighway from Assyria
For the bremnant
of His people
who
will be left
, Just
as there was for Israel
In cthe day
that they came
up out of the land
of Egypt
.
