Peace at Last Isaiah 11 Like a branch that sprouts from a stump, someone from David's family
will someday be king.
 2The Spirit of the LORD
will be with him
to give him understanding,
wisdom, and insight.
 He will be powerful,
and he will know
and honor the LORD.
3His greatest joy will be
to obey the LORD.
This king won't judge
by appearances
or listen to rumors.
4The poor and the needy
will be treated with fairness
and with justice.
His word will be law
everywhere in the land,
and criminals
will be put to death.
5Honesty and fairness
will be his royal robes.
6Leopards will lie down
with young goats,
and wolves will rest
with lambs.
Calves and lions
will eat together
and be cared for
by little children.
7Cows and bears will share
the same pasture;
their young will rest
side by side.
Lions and oxen
will both eat straw.
ceisorcd228nnnn 9Nothing harmful will take place
on the LORD's holy mountain.
Just as water fills the sea,
the land will be filled
with people
who know
and honor the LORD.
