6 For a ¹child will be born to us, a ²son will be given to us; And the ³government will rest ⁴on His shoulders; And His name will be called ⁵Wonderful Counselor, ⁶Mighty God, Eternal ⁷Father, Prince of ⁸Peace.

7 There will be ⁹no end to the increase of His government or of peace, On the ¹⁰throne of David and over his kingdom, To establish it and to uphold it with ¹¹justice and righteousness From then on and forevermore *. ¹²The zeal of the LORD of hosts will accomplish this.
