The Righteous Reign of the Branch
1 bThere shall come forth a shoot from the stump of cJesse,
and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit.
11 Behold, the Lord has proclaimed
to the end of the earth:
zSay to the daughter of Zion,
“Behold, your salvation acomes;
behold, bhis reward is with him,
and his recompense before him.”
