A child is born
Still the gloom will not be as it was in her distress. At first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward more badly afflicted her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations. The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. Those who live in the land of the shadow of death — light has shined on them. You've multiplied the nation and increased its joy. They rejoice before you like the joy of harvest, like men rejoicing when they divide the plunder. You've broken the yoke of his burden, the staff on his shoulder and the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian. Every battle of the warrior is with confused noise and garments rolled in blood, but this will be for burning and fuel for the fire. For to us a child is born, to us a son is given. The government will be on his shoulder, and his name will be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end, on David's throne and over his kingdom, to order it and establish it with justice and righteousness from now on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will perform this.
But there'll be no more gloom for the one who was in anguish. In the past he brought low the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but later on he'll bring glory to the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations. The people walking in darkness have seen a great light. On those living in the land of the shadow of death, light has dawned. You've made the nation bigger and increased its joy. They celebrate in front of you like people celebrating at harvest, like men celebrating when they divide the spoil. Because you've broken the yoke that was weighing them down, the bar across their shoulders, the rod of the one driving them — the way you did on the day of Midian. Every boot that stamped in battle and every cloak rolled in blood will be for burning, fuel for the fire. For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will rest on his shoulders. And his name will be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and of peace there'll be no end, on David's throne and over his kingdom, to set it up and hold it up with justice and righteousness from now on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will do this.
Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations. The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined. Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil. For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian. For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire. For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

The hand still stretched out
The LORD has sent a word against Jacob, and it's landed on Israel. All the people will know — Ephraim and the people of Samaria — who say in pride and stoutness of heart, The bricks have fallen down, but we'll build with dressed stone. The fig trees have been cut down, but we'll put cedars in their place. So the LORD has raised up Rezin's enemies against them and stirred up their foes. The Syrians before and the Philistines behind will devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger isn't turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. Yet the people don't turn to the one who strikes them, and they don't seek the LORD Almighty. So the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm branch and reed, in a single day. The elder and the man of standing are the head, and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail. The leaders of this people cause them to err, and those they lead are destroyed. So the Lord will have no joy in their young men, nor have mercy on their orphans and widows, because every one of them is a hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger isn't turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. Wickedness burns like a fire. It devours the briers and thorns, kindles the thickets of the forest, and they rise up like columns of smoke. The land is scorched by the fury of the LORD Almighty, and the people are fuel for the fire. Nobody spares his brother. They snatch on the right and stay hungry. They eat on the left and aren't satisfied. Each one eats the flesh of his own arm — Manasseh against Ephraim, Ephraim against Manasseh, and the two of them together against Judah. And after all this his anger hasn't turned away; his hand is still stretched out.
The Lord has sent a word against Jacob, and it's landed on Israel. And all the people will know it — Ephraim and everyone living in Samaria — who say with pride and a big head: The bricks have fallen down, but we'll build with dressed stone. The fig trees have been cut down, but we'll put cedars in their place. So the Lord has raised up Rezin's enemies against them and stirred up their foes. Aram in front and the Philistines behind, and they've eaten up Israel with their mouths wide open. And after all this his anger hasn't turned away; his hand is still stretched out. But the people haven't turned back to the one who struck them, and they haven't gone looking for the Lord Almighty. So the Lord will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm branch and reed, in a single day. The elder and the man of standing are the head, and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail. The ones leading this people have led them astray, and the ones being led are swallowed up. So the Lord takes no pleasure in their young men and no pity on their orphans and widows, because every one of them is godless and does wrong, and every mouth talks nonsense. And after all this his anger hasn't turned away; his hand is still stretched out. Because wickedness burns like a fire. It eats up briars and thorns and catches the thickets of the forest, and they roll upward in a column of smoke. The land is scorched by the fury of the Lord Almighty, and the people are fuel for the fire. Nobody spares his brother. They snatch on the right and stay hungry. They eat on the left and aren't satisfied. Each one eats the flesh of his own arm — Manasseh against Ephraim, Ephraim against Manasseh, and the two of them together against Judah. And after all this his anger hasn't turned away; his hand is still stretched out.
The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel. And all the people shall know, even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart, The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars. Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together; The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. For the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts. Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day. The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail. For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed. Therefore the LORD shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke. Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother. And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm: Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh: and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
