Isaiah 9:4-6

Modern English Version

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.
