Isaiah 11

American Standard Version

1And there shall comeH3318 forthH3318 a shootH2415 out of the stock of JesseH3448, and a branchH5342 out of his rootsH8328 shall bearH6509 fruitH6509. 2And the SpiritH7307 of Jehovah shall restH5117 upon him, the spiritH7307 of wisdomH2451 and understandingH998, the spiritH7307 of counselH6098 and might, the spiritH7307 of knowledgeH1847 and of the fearH3374 of Jehovah. 3And his delight shall be in the fearH3374 of Jehovah; and he shall not judgeH8199 after the sight of his eyesH5869, neither decideH3198 after the hearing of his earsH241; 4but with righteousnessH6664 shall he judgeH8199 the poorH1800, and decideH3198 with equity for the meek of the earthH776; and he shall smite the earthH776 with the rodH7626 of his mouthH6310; and with the breathH7307 of his lipsH8193 shall he slay the wickedH7563. 5And righteousnessH6664 shall beH1961 the girdle of his waist, and faithfulnessH530 the girdle of his loinsH4975.

6And the wolfH2061 shall dwell with the lambH3532, and the leopardH5246 shall lieH7257 down with the kid; and the calfH5695 and the youngH5288 lionH3715 and the fatlingH4806 togetherH3162; and a littleH6996 child shall lead them. 7And the cowH6510 and the bearH1677 shall feed; their youngH3206 ones shall lieH7257 down togetherH3162; and the lionH738 shall eatH398 strawH8401 like the oxH1241. 8And the sucking childH1580 shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weanedH1580 childH1580 shall put his handH3027 on the adder’s den. 9They shall not hurt nor destroyH7843 in all my holyH6944 mountainH2022; for the earthH776 shall be fullH4390 of the knowledgeH1844 of Jehovah, as the watersH4325 coverH3680 the seaH3220.

10And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that the rootH8328 of JesseH3448, that standeth for an ensign of the peoplesH5971, unto him shall the nationsH1471 seekH1875; and his resting-place shall beH1961 glorious.

11And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that the LordH136 will set his handH3027 again the secondH8145 time to recover the remnantH7605 of his peopleH5971, that shall remainH7604, from AssyriaH804, and from EgyptH4714, and from PathrosH6624, and from CushH3568, and from ElamH5867, and from ShinarH8152, and from HamathH2574, and from the islandsH339 of the seaH3220. 12And he will set up an ensign for the nationsH1471, and will assemble the outcasts of IsraelH3478, and gatherH6908 together the dispersed of JudahH3063 from the fourH702 cornersH3671 of the earthH776. 13The envy also of EphraimH669 shall departH5493, and they that vex JudahH3063 shall be cutH3772 off: EphraimH669 shall not envy JudahH3063, and JudahH3063 shall not vex EphraimH669. 14And they shall flyH5774 down upon the shoulderH3802 of the PhilistinesH6430 on the westH3220; togetherH3162 shall they despoil the children of the eastH6924: they shall put forth their handH3027 upon EdomH123 and MoabH4124; and the children of AmmonH5983 shall obey them. 15And Jehovah will utterly destroyH2763 the tongueH3956 of the Egyptian seaH3220; and with his scorching windH7307 will he waveH5130 his handH3027 over the RiverH5104, and will smite it into sevenH7651 streams, and cause men to marchH1869 over dryshod. 16And there shall beH1961 a highwayH4546 for the remnantH7605 of his peopleH5971, that shall remainH7604, from AssyriaH804; like as there wasH1961 for IsraelH3478 in the dayH3117 that he came up out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
