1 Like a branch that sprouts from a stump, someone from David's family will someday be king. 2 The Spirit of the LORD will be with him to give him understanding, wisdom, and insight. He will be powerful, and he will know and honor the LORD. 3 His greatest joy will be to obey the LORD. This king won't judge by appearances or listen to rumors. 4 The poor and the needy will be treated with fairness and with justice. His word will be law everywhere in the land, and criminals will be put to death. 5 Honesty and fairness will be his royal robes. 6 Leopards will lie down with young goats, and wolves will rest with lambs. Calves and lions will eat together and be cared for by little children. 7 Cows and bears will share the same pasture; their young will rest side by side. Lions and oxen will both eat straw. 8 Little children will play near snake holes. They will stick their hands into dens of poisonous snakes and never be hurt. 9 Nothing harmful will take place on the LORD's holy mountain. Just as water fills the sea, the land will be filled with people who know and honor the LORD.
