11 ¹ There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse,
and a branch shall grow out of his roots.
11 ² And the Spirit of Yahweh shall rest upon him,
the spirit of wisdom and understanding,
the spirit of counsel and might,
the spirit of knowledge
and the fear of Yahweh.
11 ³ And his delight shall be in the fear of Yahweh.
He shall not judge by what his eyes see,
or decide by what his ears hear;
11 ⁴ but with righteousness he shall judge the poor,
and decide with equity for the meek of the earth;
and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth,
and with the breath of his lips he shall slay the wicked.
11 ⁵ Righteousness shall be the girdle of his waist,
and faithfulness the girdle of his loins.

11 ⁶ The wolf shall dwell with the lamb,
and the leopard shall lie down with the kid,
and the calf and the lion and the fatling together,
and a little child shall lead them.
11 ⁷ The cow and the bear shall feed;
their young shall lie down together;
and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
11 ⁸ The sucking child shall play over the hole of the asp,
and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder's den.
11 ⁹ They shall not hurt or destroy
in all my holy mountain;
for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of Yahweh
as the waters cover the sea.
