* For there is no gloom to her who had been in anguish , In the former time , he brought into dishonour The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali , In the latter time , hath he brought into honour The Lake-way over the Jordan , Galilee of the nations . * the people who were walking in darkness , Have seen a great light , The dwellers in a land death-shadowed , A light , hath shined upon them . * Thou hast increased the exultation Thou hast made great the joy , They joy before thee , according to the joy of harvest , As men exult when they distribute spoil . * For , the yoke of their burden , The cross-bar of their shoulder , The goad of their driver , Hast thou broken , as in the day of Midian . * Surely , every boot of one tramping in tumult , and the war-cloak rolled in blood Then shall serve for burning , food for fire ; * For , A Child , hath been born to us , A Son , hath been given to us , And the dominion is upon his shoulder , And his Name hath been called Wonderful Counsellor , Mighty GOD , Father of Futurity , Prince of Prosperity . * Of the increase of dominion , and of prosperity , There shall be no end Upon the throne of David and Upon his kingdom , By establishing it and By sustaining it , With justice and With righteousness , From henceforth , Even unto times age-abiding : The jealousy of Yahweh of hosts , will perform this !
