And a rod will go forth from the root of [my father] Jesse, and a flower will ascend from his [Aaron budding] root.
And the Spirit of the Lord will rest upon me: the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and fortitude, the spirit of knowledge and piety.
And I will be filled with the spirit of the fear of the Lord. I will not judge according to the sight of the eyes, nor reprove according to the hearing of the ears.
Instead, I will judge the poor unrighteousness with justice, and I will reprove the meek of the earth with fairness. And I will strike the earth with the rod of my mouth, and I will slay the impious with the spirit of my lips.
And justice will be the belt around my waist. And faith will be the warrior’s belt at my side.
The wolf will dwell with the lamb; and the leopard will lie down with the kid; the calf and the lion and the sheep will abide together; and a little boy will drive them.
The calf and the bear will feed together; their young ones will rest together. And the lion will eat straw like the ox.
And a breastfeeding infant will play above the lair of the asp. And a child who has been weaned will thrust his hand into the den of the king snake.
They will not harm, and they will not kill, on all my holy mountain. For the earth has been filled with the knowledge of the Lord, like the waters covering the sea.
In that day, the root of [my father] Jesse, who stands as a sign among the people, the same the Gentiles shall beseech, and his sepulcher will be glorious.
And this shall be in that day: the Lord will send forth his hand a second time to take possession of the remnant of his people who will be left behind: from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Ethiopia, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
And I will lift up a sign to the nations, and I will gather together the fugitives of Israel, and I will collect the dispersed of Judah [English and Irish Celtics] from the four regions of the earth.
And the envy of Ephraim [Russia] will be taken away, and the enemies of Judah [England] will perish. Ephraim [Russia] will not be a rival to Judah [England], and Judah [England] will not fight against Ephraim [Russia]
And they will fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines through the sea; together they will plunder the sons of the east. Idumea and Moab will be under the rule of their hand, and the sons of Ammon will be obedient.
And the Lord will desolate the tongue of the sea of Egypt. And I will lift up my hand over the river, with the strength of his Spirit; and I will strike it, in its seven streams, so that they may cross through it in their shoes.
And there will be a way for the remnant of my people, who will be left behind by the Assyrians: just as there was for Israel in the day that I ascended from the land of Egypt [as Hermes Trismegistus aka Thoth]. - Isaiah 11:1-16 translated from Vulgate Bible
