Isaiah 9:7

7Of the increase of his government and of peace
athere will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
bwith justice and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
cThe zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

Isaiah 11:1-9

The Righteous Reign of the Branch

1 There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of dJesse,
and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit.
2And ethe Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him,
the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
the Spirit of counsel and might,
the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.
3And his delight shall be in the fear of the Lord.
fHe shall not judge by gwhat his eyes see,
or decide disputes by hwhat his ears hear,
4but iwith righteousness he shall judge the poor,
and decide with equity for the meek of the earth;
and he shall jstrike the earth with the rod of his mouth,
and kwith the breath of his lips lhe shall kill the wicked.
5Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist,
and mfaithfulness the belt of his loins.
6 nThe wolf shall dwell with the lamb,
and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together;
and a little child shall lead them.
7The cow and the bear shall graze;
their young shall lie down together;
and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
8The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra,
and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den.
9 oThey shall not hurt or destroy
in all pmy holy mountain;
qfor the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord
as the waters cover the sea.

Zechariah 9:9-10

The Coming King of Zion

9 rRejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem!
sBehold, tyour king is coming to you;
righteous and having salvation is he,
uhumble and mounted on a donkey,
on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
10 vI will cut off the chariot from Ephraim
and wthe war horse from Jerusalem;
and the battle bow shall be cut off,
and xhe shall speak peace to the nations;
yhis rule shall be from sea to sea,
and from zthe River to the ends of the earth.
