There will be (A)no end to the increase of His government or of peace
On the (B)throne of David and over [a]his kingdom,
To establish it and to uphold it with (C)justice and righteousness
From then on and forevermore.
(D)The zeal of the Lord of armies will accomplish this.

Footnotes

  1. Isaiah 9:7 I.e., David’s

The (A)Spirit of the Lord will rest on Him,
The spirit of (B)wisdom and understanding,
The spirit of counsel and (C)strength,
The spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.
And He will delight in the fear of the Lord,
And He will not judge by what His eyes (D)see,
Nor make decisions by what His ears hear;
But with (E)righteousness He will judge the (F)poor,
And decide with fairness for the (G)humble of the earth;
And He will strike the earth with the (H)rod of His mouth,
And with the (I)breath of His lips He will slay the wicked.
Also (J)righteousness will be the belt around His hips,
And (K)faithfulness the belt around His waist.
