Chapter 11
The Branch and the Sevenfold Spirit
| 1 καὶ ἐξελεύσεται ῥάβδος ἐκ τῆς ῥίζης Ἰεσσαί, καὶ ἄνθος ἐκ τῆς ῥίζης ἀναβήσεται. 2 καὶ ἀναπαύσεται ἐπ' αὐτὸν πνεῦμα τοῦ θεοῦ, πνεῦμα σοφίας καὶ συνέσεως, πνεῦμα βουλῆς καὶ ἰσχύος, πνεῦμα γνώσεως καὶ εὐσεβείας· 3 ἐμπλήσει αὐτὸν πνεῦμα φόβου θεοῦ. οὐ κατὰ τὴν δόξαν κρινεῖ οὐδὲ κατὰ τὴν λαλιὰν ἐλέγξει, 4 ἀλλὰ κρινεῖ ταπεινῷ κρίσιν καὶ ἐλέγξει τοὺς ταπεινοὺς τῆς γῆς· καὶ πατάξει γῆν τῷ λόγῳ τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν πνεύματι διὰ χειλέων ἀνελεῖ ἀσεβῆ· 5 καὶ ἔσται δικαιοσύνῃ ἐζωσμένος τὴν ὀσφὺν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀληθείᾳ εἰλημένος τὰς πλευράς. | 1 And there shall come forth a rod from the root of Jesse, and a flower shall come up from that root. 2 And the spirit of God shall rest upon him: a spirit of wisdom and understanding, a spirit of counsel and strength, a spirit of knowledge and godliness (eusebeias); 3 a spirit of the fear of God shall fill him. He shall not judge according to appearance (doxan), nor shall he convict according to talk (lalian); 4 but he shall judge the lowly with justice and convict the lowly of the earth. And he shall strike the earth with the word of his mouth, and with the spirit through his lips he shall destroy the ungodly. 5 And he shall have his loins girt with righteousness, and his sides wrapped with truth. |
The Peaceable Kingdom
| 6 καὶ συμβοσκηθήσεται λύκος μετὰ ἀρνός, καὶ πάρδαλις συναναπαύσεται ἐρίφῳ, καὶ μοσχάριον καὶ ταῦρος καὶ λέων ἅμα βοσκηθήσονται, καὶ παιδίον μικρὸν ἄξει αὐτούς· 7 καὶ βοῦς καὶ ἄρκος ἅμα βοσκηθήσονται, καὶ ἅμα τὰ παιδία αὐτῶν ἔσονται, καὶ λέων καὶ βοῦς ἅμα φάγονται ἄχυρα. 8 καὶ παιδίον νήπιον ἐπὶ τρώγλην ἀσπίδων καὶ ἐπὶ κοίτην ἐκγόνων ἀσπίδων τὴν χεῖρα ἐπιβαλεῖ. 9 καὶ οὐ μὴ κακοποιήσωσιν οὐδὲ μὴ δύνωνται ἀπολέσαι οὐδένα ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος τὸ ἅγιόν μου, ὅτι ἐνεπλήσθη ἡ σύμπασα τοῦ γνῶναι τὸν κύριον ὡς ὕδωρ πολὺ κατακαλύψαι θαλάσσας. 10 καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἡ ῥίζα τοῦ Ἰεσσαὶ καὶ ὁ ἀνιστάμενος ἄρχειν ἐθνῶν, ἐπ' αὐτῷ ἔθνη ἐλπιοῦσιν, καὶ ἔσται ἡ ἀνάπαυσις αὐτοῦ τιμή. | 6 And the wolf shall feed with the lamb, and the leopard shall rest with the kid, and the calf and bull and lion shall feed together, and a little child shall lead them. 7 And the ox and bear shall feed together, and their young shall be together, and the lion and ox shall eat chaff together. 8 And an infant child shall put his hand over the hole of asps, and over the lair of the offspring of asps. 9 And they shall not do evil, nor shall they be able to destroy anyone upon my holy mountain; for the whole [earth] has been filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as much water covers the seas. 10 And it shall be in that day: the root of Jesse and the one arising to rule nations—in him shall the nations hope, and his rest shall be honor (timē). |
The Regathering of the Remnant
| 11 καὶ ἔσται τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ προσθήσει κύριος τοῦ δεῖξαι τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ τοῦ ζηλῶσαι τὸ καταλειφθὲν ὑπόλοιπον τοῦ λαοῦ, ὃ ἄν καταλειφθῇ ἀπὸ τῶν Ἀσσυρίων καὶ ἀπὸ Αἰγύπτου καὶ Βαβυλωνίας καὶ Αἰθιοπίας καὶ ἀπὸ Αἰλαμιτῶν καὶ ἀπὸ ἡλίου ἀνατολῶν καὶ ἐξ Ἀραβίας. 12 καὶ ἀρεῖ σημεῖον εἰς τὰ ἔθνη καὶ συνάξει τοὺς ἀπολομένους Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τοὺς διεσπαρμένους τοῦ Ἰούδα συνάξει ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων πτερύγων τῆς γῆς. | 11 And it shall be in that day that the Lord will again show His hand to be zealous for the remnant that is left of the people, whatever is left from the Assyrians and from Egypt and Babylonia and Ethiopia and from the Elamites and from the rising of the sun and from Arabia. 12 And He shall raise a signal for the nations and shall gather the lost of Israel, and He shall gather the dispersed of Judah from the four wings (pterygon) of the earth. |
| 13 καὶ ἀφαιρεθήσεται ὁ ζῆλος Ἐφραίμ, καὶ οἱ ἐχθροὶ Ἰούδα ἀπολοῦνται· Ἐφραὶμ οὐ ζηλώσει Ἰούδαν, καὶ Ἰούδας οὐ θλίψει Ἐφραίμ. 14 καὶ πετασθήσονται ἐν πλοίοις ἀλλοφύλων θάλασσαν, ἅμα προνομεύσουσιν καὶ τοὺς ἀφ' ἡλίου ἀνατολῶν καὶ Ἰδουμαίαν· καὶ ἐπὶ Μωὰβ πρῶτον τὰς χεῖρας ἐπιβαλοῦσιν, οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ Ἀμμὼν πρῶτοι ὑπακούσονται. | 13 And the jealousy of Ephraim shall be removed, and the enemies of Judah shall perish; Ephraim shall not be jealous of Judah, and Judah shall not afflict Ephraim. 14 And they shall fly in the ships of foreigners [over] the sea; together they shall plunder those from the rising of the sun and Idumea; and they shall lay their hands first upon Moab, and the sons of Ammon shall be the first to obey. |
| 15 καὶ ἐρημώσει κύριος τὴν θάλασσαν Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐπιβαλεῖ τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸν ποταμὸν πνεύματι βιαίῳ καὶ πατάξει ἑπτὰ φάραγγας ὥστε διαπορεύεσθαι αὐτὸν ἐν ὑποδήμασιν· 16 καὶ ἔσται δίοδος τῷ καταλειφθέντι μου λαῷ ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ, καὶ ἔσται τῷ Ἰσραὴλ ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα ὅτε ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου. | 15 And the Lord shall make the sea of Egypt desolate and shall lay His hand upon the River with a violent wind; and He shall strike the seven channels so that it may be crossed in sandals. 16 And there shall be a passage for my people who are left in Egypt, and it shall be for Israel as the day when he came out from the land of Egypt. |
