1 A shoot will come out of the stock of Jesse,and a branch out of his roots will bear fruit.
2 the Lord’s Spirit will rest on him:the spirit of wisdom and understanding,the spirit of counsel and might,the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.
3 His delight will be in the fear of the Lord.He will not judge by the sight of his eyes,neither decide by the hearing of his ears;
4 but with righteousness he will judge the poor,and decide with equity for the humble of the earth.He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth;and with the breath of his lips he will kill the wicked.
5 Righteousness will be the belt of his waist,and faithfulness the belt of his waist.
