* Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation , when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali , and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea , beyond Jordan , in Galilee of the nations . * The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light : they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death , upon them hath the light shined . * Thou hast multiplied the nation , and not increased the joy : they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest , and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil . * For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden , and the staff of his shoulder , the rod of his oppressor , as in the day of Midian . * For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise ra #ash #, and garments rolled in blood ; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire . * For unto us a child is born , unto us a son is given : and the government shall be upon his shoulder : and his name shall be called Wonderful , Counsellor , The mighty God , The everlasting Father , The Prince of Peace . * Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end , upon the throne of David , and upon his kingdom , to order it , and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever . The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this .
