1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:

1 Et egredietur virga de radice Jesse,
et flos de radice ejus ascendet.

2 And the 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 of the fear of the Lord;

2 Et requiescet super eum spiritus Domini:
spiritus sapientiæ et intellectus,
spiritus consilii et fortitudinis,
spiritus scientiæ et pietatis;

3 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:

3 et replebit eum spiritus timoris Domini.
Non secundum visionem oculorum judicabit,
neque secundum auditum aurium arguet;

4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

4 sed judicabit in justitia pauperes,
et arguet in æquitate pro mansuetis terræ;
et percutiet terram virga oris sui,
et spiritu labiorum suorum interficiet impium.

5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

5 Et erit justitia cingulum lumborum ejus,
et fides cinctorium renum ejus.

6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.

6 Habitabit lupus cum agno,
et pardus cum hædo accubabit;
vitulus, et leo, et ovis, simul morabuntur,
et puer parvulus minabit eos.

7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

7 Vitulus et ursus pascentur,
simul requiescent catuli eorum;
et leo quasi bos comedet paleas.

8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den.

8 Et delectabitur infans ab ubere super foramine aspidis;
et in caverna reguli
qui ablactatus fuerit manum suam mittet.

9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.

9 Non nocebunt, et non occident
in universo monte sancto meo,
quia repleta est terra scientia Domini, sicut aquæ maris operientes.

10 ¶ And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.

10 ¶ In die illa radix Jesse,
qui stat in signum populorum,
ipsum gentes deprecabuntur,
et erit sepulchrum ejus gloriosum.

11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.

11 Et erit in die illa: adjiciet Dominus secundo manum suam
ad possidendum residuum populi sui,
quod relinquetur ab Assyriis, et ab Ægypto,
et a Phetros, et ab Æthiopia, et ab Ælam, et a Sennaar,
et ab Emath, et ab insulis maris.

12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.

12 Et levabit signum in nationes,
et congregabit profugos Israël,
et dispersos Juda colliget
a quatuor plagis terræ.

13 The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.

13 Et auferetur zelus Ephraim,
et hostes Juda peribunt;
Ephraim non æmulabitur Judam,
et Judas non pugnabit contra Ephraim.

14 But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.

14 Et volabunt in humeros Philisthiim per mare,
simul prædabuntur filios orientis;
Idumæa et Moab præceptum manus eorum,
et filii Ammon obedientes erunt.

15 And the Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.

15 Et desolabit Dominus linguam maris Ægypti,
et levabit manum suam super flumen in fortitudine spiritus sui;
et percutiet eum in septem rivis,
ita ut transeant per eum calceati.

16 And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.

16 Et erit via residuo populo meo
qui relinquetur ab Assyriis,
sicut fuit Israëli
in die illa qua ascendit de terra Ægypti.
