1 And there out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots;
2 and shall rest upon him the Spirit of the Lord, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and piety;
3 and fear of the Lord, and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes and his ears hearing to decide the case.
4 He shall judge the poor with justice, and decide the case of sufferers of the earth in truth; and the rod of his mouth smite the land, and the breath of his lips shall slay the wicked.
5 And it will be the girdle of his loins truth, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins - the truth.
6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together, and a little child shall lead them.
7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion like the ox shall eat straw.
8 And the sucking child shall play over the noroyu asp, and the child put his hand on the adder's den.
9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

10 And in that day the root of Jesse, who standeth for an ensign for the nations, shall the Gentiles seek peace --and it will be glorious.
eleven And in that day: Lord again stretch out his hand, to recover the remnant of His people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and in Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and the islands of the sea.
12 And raise the banner for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel and the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
13 And the envy of Ephraim, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off. Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.
14 But they shall fly on the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil all the sons of the east; upon Edom and Moab lay their hand, and the children of Ammon shall obey them.
15 And the Lord shall dry up the Gulf Sea of ​​Egypt, and stretch out his hand over the river in His mighty wind, and smite it into seven streams, so that it can move in sandals.
16 Then the remnant of His people that remains, from Assyria, is a great way, as it was for Israel, when he came out of the land of Egypt.
