And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes,
Nor decide by the hearing of His ears;
And decide with equity for the meek of the earth;
He shall bstrike the earth with the rod of His mouth,
And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
The leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
The calf and the young lion and the fatling together;
And a little child shall lead them.
Their young ones shall lie down together;
And the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
And the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper’s den.
For bthe earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord
As the waters cover the sea.
Who shall stand as a cbanner to the people;
For the dGentiles shall seek Him,
And His resting place shall be glorious.”
That the Lord shall set His hand again the second time
To recover the remnant of His people who are left,
aFrom Assyria and Egypt,
From Pathros and Cush,
From Elam and Shinar,
From Hamath and the islands of the sea.
