Prince of Peace Isaiah 9:2-6

 

Prince of Peace

Isaiah 9:2-6Modern English Version (MEV)

2 The people who walked in darkness
    have seen a great light;
those who dwell in the land of the shadow of death,
    upon them the light has shined.
3 You have multiplied the nation
    and increased the joy;
they rejoice before You
    according to the joy of harvest
and as men rejoice
    when they divide the spoil.
4 For You have broken the yoke of his burden
    and the bar of his shoulder,
the rod of his oppressor
    as in the day of Midian’s defeat.
5 For all the sandals of the tramping warriors
    and all the garments rolled in blood
    shall be burned as fuel for the fire.
6 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 Counselor, Mighty God,
    Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
