Yeshayah (Isaiah) 11
11
1And a Rod shall come forth from the stump of Yishai, and a Sprout from his roots shall be fruitful.
2The Spirit of יהוה shall rest upon Him – the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of יהוה,
3and shall make Him breathe in the fear of יהוה. And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of His ears.
4But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, and shall decide with straightness for the meek ones of the earth, and shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and slay the wrong with the breath of His lips.
5And righteousness shall be the girdle of His loins, and trustworthiness the girdle of His waist.
6And a wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and a leopard lie down with the young goat, and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together, and a little child leads them.
7And cow and bear shall feed, their young ones lie down together, and a lion eat straw like an ox.
8And the nursing child shall play by the cobra’s hole, and the weaned child shall put his hand in the adder’s den.
9They do no evil nor destroy in all My set-apart mountain, for the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of יהוה as the waters cover the sea.#See Hab. 2:14
10And in that day there shall be a Root of Yishai, standing as a banner to the people. Unto Him the nations shall seek, and His rest shall be esteem.
11And it shall be in that day that יהוה sets His hand again a second time to recover the remnant of His people who are left, from Ashshur and from Mitsrayim, from Pathros and from Kush, from Ěylam and from Shin‛ar, from Ḥamath and from the islands of the sea.
12And He shall raise a banner for the nations, and gather the outcasts of Yisra’ĕl, and assemble the dispersed of Yehuḏah from the four corners of the earth.
13And the envy of Ephrayim shall turn aside, and the adversaries of Yehuḏah be cut off. Ephrayim shall not envy Yehuḏah, and Yehuḏah not trouble Ephrayim.
14But they shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines toward the west; together they plunder the people of the east, their hand stretching forth on Eḏom and Mo’aḇ, and the children of Ammon shall be subject to them.
15And יהוה shall put under the ban the tongue of the Sea of Mitsrayim, and He shall wave His hand over the River with the might of His Spirit, and shall strike it in the seven streams, and shall cause men to tread it in sandals.
16And there shall be a highway for the remnant of His people, those left from Ashshur, as it was for Yisra’ĕl in the day when he came up from the land of Mitsrayim.

Isaiah 11
11
The Branch’s Righteous Reign
1And a shoot will come out from the stump of Jesse,
and a branch from its roots will bear fruit.
2And the spirit of Yahweh shall rest on him—
a spirit of wisdom and understanding,
a spirit of counsel and might,
a spirit of knowledge and the fear of Yahweh.
3And his breath#Hebrew “smelling,” perhaps metaphorically as “delight” as in Amos 5:14; perhaps this line was accidentally copied twice from the preceding line is in the fear of Yahweh.
And he shall judge not by his eyesight,
and he shall rebuke not by what he hears with#Literally “the rumors of” his ears.
4But he shall judge the poor with righteousness,
and he shall decide for the needy of the earth with rectitude.
And he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth,
and he shall kill the wicked person with the breath of his lips.
5And righteousness shall be the belt around his waist,
and faithfulness the belt around his loins.
6And a wolf shall stay#Literally “dwell as an alien” with a lamb,
and a leopard shall lie down with a kid,
and a calf and a lion and a fatling together
as a small boy leads#Literally “and a small boy leading” them.
7And a cow and a bear shall graze;
their young shall lie down together.
And a lion shall eat straw like the cattle.
8And an infant#Literally “one nursing” shall play over a serpent’s hole,
and a toddler#Literally “one who is weaned” shall put his hand on a viper’s hole.
9They will not injure and they will not destroy on all of my holy mountain,#Literally “mountain of holiness”
for the earth will be full of the knowledge of Yahweh,
as the waters cover the sea.
10And this shall happen on that day:
the nations shall inquire of the root of Jesse,
which shall be standing as a signal to the peoples,
and his resting place shall be glorious.
The Regathered Remnant
11And this shall happen on that day:
The Lord will again extend his hand a second time
to acquire the remnant of his people that is left,
from Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, and the coastlands of the sea,
12and he will raise a signal for the nations.
And he will gather the outcasts of Israel,
and he will gather the scattered ones of Judah together from the four corners#Literally “wings” of the earth.
13And the jealousy of Ephraim shall depart,
and the enemies of Judah shall be cut off.
Ephraim shall not be jealous of Judah,
and Judah shall not be an enemy of Ephraim.
14But they shall swoop#Literally “fly” upon the Philistine shoulder,#That is, the hill country west of Judah westward.#Literally “sea”
Together they shall plunder the sons of the east.
Edom and Moab will be under their command,#Literally “the stretching of their hand”
and the sons of Ammon will be their subjugated people.
15And Yahweh will divide#Or “utterly destroy” the tongue#Probably the “gulf” of the sea of Egypt,#That is, the Red Sea
and he will wave his hand over the river#That is, the Euphrates River with his scorching wind;
and he will strike it into seven streams,
and he will make it passable by foot.#Literally “cause to walk with the sandal”
16So there shall be a highway from Assyria for the remnant of his people that remains,
as there was for Israel when#Literally “in the day” it went up from the land of Egypt.
