New King James Version
Isaiah 9
1 In Galilee of the Gentiles. 2 Upon them a light has shined. 3 As men rejoice when they divide the spoil. 4 As in the day of Midian. 5 Will be used for burning and fuel of fire. 6 Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 7 The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this. 8 And it has fallen on Israel. 9 Who say in pride and arrogance of heart: 10 But we will replace them with cedars.” 11 And spur his enemies on, 12 But His hand is stretched out still. 13 Nor do they seek the Lord of hosts. 14 Palm branch and bulrush in one day. 15 The prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail. 16 And those who are led by them are destroyed. 17 But His hand is stretched out still. 18 They shall mount up like rising smoke. 19 No man shall spare his brother. 20 Every man shall eat the flesh of his own arm. 21 But His hand is stretched out still.
