Isaiah 11:1-5 (New Living Translation)
1
Out of the stump of David's family a will grow a shoot – yes, a new Branch bearing fruit from the old root.
2
And the Spirit of the LORD will rest on him – the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD.
3
He will delight in obeying the LORD. He will never judge by appearance, false evidence, or hearsay.
4
He will defend the poor and the exploited. He will rule against the wicked and destroy them with the breath of his mouth.
5
He will be clothed with fairness and truth.
