and execute justice for the oppressed of the land.
He will strike the land
with discipline[a] from His mouth,(B)
and He will kill the wicked(C)
with a command[b] from His lips.(D)
Righteousness will be a belt around His loins;(E)
faithfulness will be a belt around His waist.(F)
The wolf will live with the lamb,(G)
and the leopard will lie down with the goat.
The calf, the young lion, and the fatling will be together,
and a child will lead them.
