11:4 He will treat the poor fairly, ¹ 

and make right decisions ²  for the downtrodden of the earth. ³ 

He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth, ⁴ 

and order the wicked to be executed. ⁵ 

11:5 Justice will be like a belt around his waist,

integrity will be like a belt around his hips. ⁶ 

11:6 A wolf will reside ⁷  with a lamb,

and a leopard will lie down with a young goat;

an ox and a young lion will graze together, ⁸ 

as a small child leads them along.

11:7 A cow and a bear will graze together,

their young will lie down together. ⁹ 

A lion, like an ox, will eat straw.

11:8 A baby ¹⁰  will play

over the hole of a snake; ¹¹ 

over the nest ¹²  of a serpent

an infant ¹³  will put his hand. ¹⁴ 

11:9 They will no longer injure or destroy

on my entire royal mountain. ¹⁵ 

For there will be universal submission to the Lord’s sovereignty,

just as the waters completely cover the sea. ¹⁶
