Isaiah:11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
A shoot will come out of the stock of Jesse ,
and a branch out of his roots will bear fruit .
*
The Spirit of Yahweh will rest on him :
the spirit of wisdom and understanding ,
the spirit of counsel and might ,
the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Yahweh .
*
His delight will be in the fear of Yahweh .
He will not judge by the sight of his eyes ,
neither decide by the hearing of his ears ;
*
but with righteousness he will judge the poor ,
and decide with equity for the humble of the earth .
He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth ;
and with the breath of his lips he will kill the wicked .
*
Righteousness will be the belt of his waist ,
and faithfulness the belt of his waist .
*
The wolf will live with the lamb ,
and the leopard will lie down with the young goat ;
The calf ,
the young lion ,
and the fattened calf together ;
and a little child will lead them .
*
The cow and the bear will graze .
Their young ones will lie down together .
The lion will eat straw like the ox .
*
The nursing child will play near a cobra '
s hole ,
and the weaned child will put his hand on the viper '
s den .
*
They will not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain ;
for the earth will be full of the knowledge of Yahweh ,
as the waters cover the sea .
*
It will happen in that day that the nations will seek the root of Jesse ,
who stands as a banner of the peoples ;
and his resting place will be glorious .
*
It will happen in that day that the Lord will set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria ,
from Egypt ,
from Pathros ,
from Cush ,
from Elam ,
from Shinar ,
from Hamath ,
and from the islands of the sea .
*
He will set up a banner for the nations ,
and will assemble the outcasts of Israel ,
and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth .
*
The envy also of Ephraim will depart ,
and those who persecute Judah will be cut off .
Ephraim won '
t envy Judah ,
and Judah won '
t persecute Ephraim .
*
They will fly down on the shoulders of the Philistines on the west .
Together they will plunder the children of the east .
They will extend their power over Edom and Moab ,
and the children of Ammon will obey them .
*
Yahweh will utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea ;
and with his scorching wind he will wave his hand over the River ,
and will split it into seven streams ,
and cause men to march over in sandals .
*
There will be a highway for the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria ,
like there was for Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt .
