Isaiah Chapter 11 (NIV)

undefined The Branch From JesseA shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse;from his roots a Branch will bear fruit.
undefined The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding,the Spirit of counsel and of power,the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord—
undefined and he will delight in the fear of the Lord.He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes,or decide by what he hears with his ears;
undefined but with righteousness he will judge the needy,with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth.He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth;with the breath of his lips he will slay the wicked.
undefined Righteousness will be his beltand faithfulness the sash around his waist.
undefined The wolf will live with the lamb,the leopard will lie down with the goat,the calf and the lion and the yearling together;and a little child will lead them.
undefined The cow will feed with the bear,their young will lie down together,and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
undefined The infant will play near the hole of the cobra,and the young child put his hand into the viper’s nest.
undefined They will neither harm nor destroyon all my holy mountain,for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lordas the waters cover the sea.
undefined In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples; the nations will rally to him, and his place of rest will be glorious.
undefined In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria, from Lower Egypt, from Upper Egypt, from Cush, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath and from the islands of the sea.
undefined He will raise a banner for the nationsand gather the exiles of Israel;he will assemble the scattered people of Judahfrom the four quarters of the earth.
undefined Ephraim’s jealousy will vanish,and Judah’s enemies will be cut off;Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah,nor Judah hostile toward Ephraim.
undefined They will swoop down on the slopes of Philistia to the west;together they will plunder the people to the east.They will lay hands on Edom and Moab,and the Ammonites will be subject to them.
undefined The Lord will dry upthe gulf of the Egyptian sea;with a scorching wind he will sweep his handover the Euphrates River.He will break it up into seven streamsso that men can cross over in sandals.
undefined There will be a highway for the remnant of his peoplethat is left from Assyria,as there was for Israelwhen they came up from Egypt.
