Isaiah 11:1-3

GOD’S WORD Translation

The Lord’s Kingdom Will Be Ruled by a Shoot from Jesse’s Stump

11 Then a shoot will come out from the stump of Jesse,
and a branch from its roots will bear fruit.
²The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—
the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
the Spirit of advice and power,
the Spirit of knowledge and fear of the Lord.
³He will gladly bear the fear of the Lord.
He will not judge by what his eyes see
or decide by what his ears hear.
