2. Isaiah 9:1
But there will be no gloom for her who was
in anguish. In the former time he brought
into contempt the land of Zebulun and the
land of Naphtali, but in the latter time he
has made glorious the way of the sea, the
land beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the
nations.

3. Isaiah 9:2-3
The people who walked in darkness have
seen a great light; those who dwelt in a
land of deep darkness, on them has a light
shone. You have multiplied the nation; you
have increased its joy; they rejoice before
you as with joy at the harvest, as they are
glad when they divide the spoil.

4. Isaiah 9:4-5
For the yoke of his burden, and the staff for
his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, you

every boot of the tramping warrior in battle
tumult and every garment rolled in blood
will be burned as fuel for the fire.

Of the increase of his government and of

will do this.
