Isaiah 9:3-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 You have enlarged the nation
and increased its joy.[a](A)
The people have rejoiced before You
as they rejoice at harvest time
and as they rejoice when dividing spoils.(B)
4 For You have shattered their oppressive yoke(C)
and the rod on their shoulders,
the staff of their oppressor,
just as You did on the day of Midian.(D)
5 For the trampling boot of battle
and the bloodied garments of war
will be burned as fuel for the fire.

3 You have enlarged the nation(A)
and increased their joy;(B)
they rejoice before you
as people rejoice at the harvest,
as warriors rejoice
when dividing the plunder.(C)
4 For as in the day of Midian’s defeat,(D)
you have shattered(E)
the yoke(F) that burdens them,
the bar across their shoulders,(G)
the rod of their oppressor.(H)
5 Every warrior’s boot used in battle
and every garment rolled in blood
will be destined for burning,(I)
will be fuel for the fire.
