5 Honesty and fairnesswill be his royal robes.
6 Leopards will lie downwith young goats,and wolves will restwith lambs.Calves and lionswill eat togetherand be cared forby little children.
7 Cows and bears will sharethe same pasture;their young will restside by side.Lions and oxenwill both eat straw.
8 Little children will playnear snake holes.They will stick their handsinto dens of poisonous snakesand never be hurt.
9 Nothing harmful will take placeon the Lord's holy mountain.Just as water fills the sea,the land will be filledwith people who knowand honor the Lord.
10 The time is coming when one of David's descendants will be the signal for the people of all nations to come together. They will follow his advice, and his own nation will become famous.
11 When that day comes, the Lord will again reach out his mighty arm and bring home his people who have survived in Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Ethiopia, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, and the land along the coast.
