Isaías 11:5

5 A retidão será a faixa de seu peito,e a fidelidade o seu cinturão.

Isaías 11:5 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 11:5

And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins
He shall be adorned with it, strengthened by it, and ready at all times to perform it; he loved righteousness, and did acts of righteousness throughout the whole course of his life; and, by his active and passive obedience, wrought out an everlasting righteousness for his people; he is a King that reigns in righteousness, righteousness is the sceptre of his kingdom; all his administrations of government are righteous; just and true are all his ways:

and faithfulness the girdle of his reins;
he was faithful to God, that appointed him as King and Head of the church; faithful as a Prophet, in declaring his mind and will; and is a faithful High Priest, as well as a merciful one. The Targum, interprets this of righteous and faithful men, thus,

``and the righteous shall be round about him, and they that work (the work) of faith shall draw nigh unto him;''

but it is said of a single person, of the Messiah only, to whom it properly belongs.

Isaías 11:5 In-Context

3 E ele se inspirará no temor do SENHOR.Não julgará pela aparência,nem decidirá com base no que ouviu;
4 mas com retidão julgará os necessitados,com justiça tomará decisões em favor dos pobres.Com suas palavras, como se fossem um cajado, ferirá a terra;com o sopro de sua boca matará os ímpios.
5 A retidão será a faixa de seu peito,e a fidelidade o seu cinturão.
6 O lobo viverá com o cordeiro,o leopardo se deitará com o bode,o bezerro, o leão e o novilho gordo pastarão juntos;e uma criança os guiará.
7 A vaca se alimentará com o urso,seus filhotes se deitarão juntos,e o leão comerá palha como o boi.
