2The Spirit of Yahweh will always be with him. The Spirit will enable him to be wise and to understand much about many things. The Spirit will enable him to decide what is good to do, and will enable him to be very powerful. The Spirit will enable him to know Yahweh and to revere him.
3He will be glad to obey Yahweh. He will not decide whether someone is righteous or not only by seeing what that person looks like, or by listening to what others say about that person.
4He will judge the cases of needy people fairly; and he will act justly toward poor people. He will punish evil people as a result of what he decides MTY; he will get rid of wicked people because of MTY their behavior.
5He will always act righteously; his doing that will accompany him like MET a belt around his waist. He will always speak what is true; his doing that will accompany him like MET a sash around his waist.
6When he becomes king, wolves and lambs will live together peacefully; leopards, instead of killing baby goats, will lie down with them. Similarly, calves and lions will eat food together; and a young child will take care of them.
7Cows and bears will eat together; bear cubs and calves will lie down together. Lions will not eat other animals; instead, they will eat hay like cows do.
8Babies will play safely near the holes where cobra snakes live; small children will even put their hands into nests of poisonous snakes, and the snakes will not harm them.
9No creatures will harm or kill other creatures on Zion Hill, my holy hill; and the earth will be filled with people who know Yahweh like SIM the seas are full of water.
