The Government of the Promised Son
As when at bfirst He lightly esteemed
The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
And cafterward more heavily oppressed her,
By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
In Galilee of the Gentiles.
Have seen a great light;
Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death,
Upon them a light has shined.
And1 increased its joy;
They rejoice before You
According to the joy of harvest,
As men rejoice awhen they divide the spoil.
And the staff of his shoulder,
The rod of his oppressor,
As in the day of aMidian.
And garments rolled in blood,
aWill be used for burning and fuel1 of fire.
Unto us a bSon is given;
And cthe government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
dWonderful, Counselor, eMighty God,
Everlasting Father, fPrince of Peace.
aThere will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The bzeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
The Punishment of Samaria
Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria—
Who say in pride and arrogance of heart:
