5 Goodness and fairness will give him strength,like a belt around his waist.
6 Then wolves will live in peace with lambs,and leopards will lie down to rest with goats.Calves, lions, and young bulls will eat together,and a little child will lead them.
7 Cows and bears will eat together in peace.Their young will lie down to rest together.Lions will eat hay as oxen do.
8 A baby will be able to play near a cobra’s hole,and a child will be able to put his hand into the nest of a poisonous snake.
9 They will not hurt or destroy each otheron all my holy mountain,because the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord,as the sea is full of water.
10 At that time the new king from the family of Jesse will stand as a banner for all peoples. The nations will come together around him, and the place where he lives will be filled with glory.
11 At that time the Lord will again reach out and take his people who are left alive in Assyria, North Egypt, South Egypt, Cush, Elam, Babylonia, Hamath, and all the islands of the sea.
