27 And it shall be in that day, his burden shall remove from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from of? thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed by reason of fatness.

28 He is come upon Aiath, he is passed through Migron; at Michmash he layeth up his baggage;

[*](18 fin. ‘as when a standard bearer fainteth,’ Kay, A.V., R.V. text (W. E. Barnes nearly). Heb. word for ‘bear a standard’ (P) occurs again, lix. 19, but is uncertain.)[*](27 fin. Or, ‘destroyed from before the anointing.’)
106

29 They pass through the pass: in Geba they make their lodging; Ramah trembleth: Gibeah of Saul fleeth.

30 Cry out with thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: listen, Laishah; O thou poor Anathoth!

31 Madmenah wandereth away; the inhabitants of Gebim gather (their goods) to flee.

32 Within this very day he halteth at Nob, waving his hand (at) the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

33 Behold, the Lord, the LORD of Hosts, shall lop the leafy bough with terror; and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled.

34 And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a majestic one.

XI. 1 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a Branch out of his roots shall bear fruit;

2 And the Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, a spirit of wisdom and discernment, a spirit of counsel and might, a spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD:

3 And he shall breathe in the fear of l the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears:

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

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

[*](30 fin. Or, ‘answer her, Anathoth.’)[*](32. ‘daughter,’ Heb. marg.: or, ‘hosue,’ Heb. text.)[*](3. ‘breathe,’ i.e. draw his breath: or. ‘he shall smell a sweet savour in’...)

6 And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child their leader.

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

8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall stretch his hand upon the ’s den.

9 They shall not do evil or deal corruptly in all my. holy mountain; for the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

10 And it shall be in that day; the root of Jesse, which standeth for an ensign of the peoples, of him shall the nations inquire: and his resting-place shall be glory.
