Isaiah 9:1-7
1Nevertheless, there will be no more gloom for those in distress. In the past He humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the future He will honor the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations:
2The people walking in darknesshave seen a great light;on those living in the land of the shadow of death,a light has dawned.13You have enlarged the nationand increased its joy.The people rejoice before Youas they rejoice at harvest time,as men rejoice in dividing the plunder.
4For as in the day of MidianYou have shattered the yoke of their burden,the bar across their shoulders,and the rod of their oppressor.5For every trampling boot of battleand every garment rolled in bloodwill be burned as fuel for the fire.
6For unto us a child is born,unto us a son is given,and the government will be upon His shoulders.And He will be calledWonderful Counselor, Mighty God,Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.7Of the increase of His government and peacethere will be no end.He will reign on the throne of Davidand over his kingdom,to establish and sustain itwith justice and righteousnessfrom that time and forevermore.
The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.
