Context of Isaiah 11:9
7And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. 8And the nursing child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the den of the adder. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. 10And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. 11And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the isles of the sea.
