Iivesi zeBhayibhile ezithandwayo ezisuka Isaiah 9

Share

For unto us a child is born; unto us a son is given; And the government shall be upon his shoulder: And his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Father of eternity, Prince of peace.

The people that walked in darkness, Have seen a great light; They that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, Upon them hath the light shined.

Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, Upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom; To establish it, and to support it, With judgment and with justice, henceforth and for ever: The zeal of JEHOVAH of hosts will do this.

For every greave of the warrior accoutred for battle, And the garment rolled in blood, Shall be for burning, as fuel for the fire.

But yet there shall not always be darkness to that land wherein is now distress: As in the former time be made no account of The land of Zabulon and the land of Naphtali; So in the latter time he hath exalted The way of the sea beyond Jordan, the Galilee of the nations.

Thou hast multiplied the nation, Thou hast increased their joy: They joy before thee as with the joy of harvest; As they rejoice, who divide the spoil.

For the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, The rod of his oppressor, hast thou broken, as in the day of Midian.
