Isaiah 11:1-3

New Century Version

11 A new branch will grow
    from a stump of a tree;
so a new king will come
    from the family of Jesse.^[a]
2 The Spirit of the Lord will rest upon that king.
    The Spirit will give him wisdom and understanding, guidance and power.
    The Spirit will teach him to know and respect the Lord.
³ This king will be glad to obey the Lord.
He will not judge by the way things look
    or decide by what he hears.
