The Righteous Branch and the Peaceable Kingdom

Isaiah 11:1-16

11
Chapter 11
1 And a shoot will come out from the stump of Jesse, and a preserving branch from his roots will bear fruit. 2 And the Spirit of the LORD will rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and fear of the LORD. 3 And he will smell the fear of the LORD, and not to the appearance of his eyes he will judge, and not to the hearing of his ears he will reprove. 4 And he will judge the poor with righteousness, and he will reprove the oppressed of the land with equity, and he will strike the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips he will put the wicked to death. 5 And righteousness will be the belt of his loins, and faithfulness the belt of his hips. 6 And the wolf will sojourn with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the kid, and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together, and a little boy will lead them. 7 And cow and bear will graze together; their young will lie down, and lion like cattle will eat straw. 8 And the nursing child will play over the hole of the viper, and the weaned child will stretch out his hand over the den of the young viper. 9 They will not harm or destroy in all the mountain of their holy places, for the land is filled with the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea. 10 And it will be in that day, the root of Jesse, which stands as a banner for the peoples—to him the nations will seek, and his resting place will be glory. 11 And it will be in that day that the Lord will add a second time his hand to acquire the remnant of his people who remain, from Assyria and from Egypt and from Pathros and from Cush and from Elam and from Shinar and from Hamath and from the islands of the sea. 12 And he will lift up a banner for the nations and gather the driven out of Israel, and the dispersed of Judah he will collect from the four wings of the earth. 13 And the jealousy of Ephraim will turn aside, and those who harass Judah they will cut off; Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah, and Judah will not harass Ephraim. 14 And they will fly on the shoulder of the Philistines to the west. Together they will despise the sons of the East. Edom and Moab will be the sent forth of their hand, and the sons of Amon their obedience. 15 And the LORD will devote to destruction the tongue of the Sea of Egypt, and wave his hand over the River with the might of his Spirit, and strike it into seven streams, and he will guide them in sandals. 16 And there will be a highway for the remnant of his people who remains from Assyria, just as there was for Israel in the day of his going up from the land of Egypt.
