Isaiah 11:1–9

¹And a rod hath come out from the stock of Jesse, And a branch from his roots is fruitful. ²Rested on him hath the Spirit of Jehovah, The spirit of wisdom and understanding, The spirit of counsel and might, The spirit of knowledge and fear of Jehovah. ³To refresh him in the fear of Jehovah, And by the sight of his eyes he judgeth not, Nor by the hearing of his ears decideth. ⁴And he hath judged in righteousness the poor, And decided in uprightness for the humble of earth, And hath smitten earth with the rod of his mouth, And with the breath of his lips he putteth the wicked to death. ⁵And righteousness hath been the girdle of his loins, And faithfulness—the girdle of his reins. ⁶And a wolf hath sojourned with a lamb, And a leopard with a kid doth lie down, And calf, and young lion, and fatling are together, And a little youth is leader over them. ⁷And cow and bear do feed, Together lie down their young ones, And a lion as an ox eateth straw. ⁸And played hath a suckling by the hole of an asp, And on the den of a cockatrice Hath the weaned one put his hand. ⁹Evil they do not, nor destroy in all My holy mountain, For full hath been the earth with the knowledge of Jehovah, As the waters are covering the sea.
