The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord.
With righteousness he will judge the needy; with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth. Righteousness will be his belt and faithfulness the sash around his waist.
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. The infant and the young child will play with them.The cow will feed with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. In that day the Lord will stand as a banner for the peoples; the nations will rally to him, and his resting place will be glorious.
