6ForH3588 unto us a childH3206 is bornH3205,unto us a sonH1121 is givenH5414,and the governmentH4951 will beH1961 uponH5921 His shouldersH7926.And He will be calledH7121H8034WonderfulH6382 CounselorH3289, MightyH1368 GodH410,Everlasting FatherH1, PrinceH8269 of PeaceH7965.7Of the increaseH4766 of His governmentH4951 and peaceH7965there will be noH369 endH7093.He will reign onH5921 the throneH3678 of DavidH1732and overH5921 his kingdomH4467,to establishH3559 and sustain itH5582with justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666from that timeH6258 and forevermoreH5704H5769.
