Isaiah 11:1–9

And there shall come forth ^aa rod out of ^bthe stem of ^cJesse,

And ^da Branch shall grow out of ^ehis roots:

²And ^fthe spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him,

^gThe spirit of wisdom and understanding,

The spirit of counsel and might,

The spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;

³And shall make him of ^†quick understanding in the fear of the Lord:

And ^hhe shall not judge after ⁱthe sight of his eyes,

Neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:

⁴But ^kwith righteousness shall he judge the poor,

And ^||reprove with equity for the meek of the earth:

And he shall ^lsmite the earth with the rod of his mouth,

And ^mwith the breath of his lips ⁿshall he slay the wicked.

⁵And ^orighteousness ^pshall be the girdle of his loins,

And faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

^6qThe wolf also shall dwell with the lamb,

And ^rthe leopard shall lie down with the kid;

And the calf and ^rrthe young lion and the fatling together;

And a little child shall lead them.

⁷And the cow and the bear shall feed;

Their young ones shall lie down together:

And ^qsthe lion shall eat straw like the ox.

⁸And the sucking child shall play on the hole of ^ssthe asp,

And the weaned child shall put his hand on the ^||cockatrice’ den.

^9qtThey shall not hurt nor destroy in all ^umy holy mountain:

^vFor the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord,

As the waters cover the sea.
