The Judgments of the Branch

Then a ^ashoot will spring from the ^bstem of Jesse,

And a ^cbranch from ^dhis roots will bear fruit.

The ^aSpirit of Yahweh will rest on Him,

The spirit of ^bwisdom and understanding,

The spirit of counsel and ^cmight,

The spirit of knowledge and the fear of Yahweh.

And He will delight in the fear of Yahweh,

And He will not judge by what His eyes ^asee,

Nor render a decision by what His ears hear;

But with ^arighteousness He will judge the ^bpoor,

And decide with uprightness 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 put the wicked to death.

Also ^arighteousness will be the belt about His loins,

And ^bfaithfulness the belt about His waist.

And the ^awolf will ¹dwell with the lamb,

And the leopard will lie down with the young goat,

And the calf and the young lion ²and the fatling together;

And a young 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.

And the nursing baby will play by the hole of the cobra,

And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper’s den.

They will ^ado no evil nor act corruptly in all My holy mountain,

For the ^bearth will be full of the knowledge of Yahweh

As the waters cover the sea.

A Remnant Remains

Then it will be in that day,

That the ^anations will seek the ^broot of Jesse,

Who will stand as a ¹^cstandard for the peoples;

And His ^dresting place will be ²glorious.
