Isaiah 11:7-16 Modern English Version (MEV)

7. The cow and the bear shall graze;their young ones shall lie down together;and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

8. The nursing child shall play by the hole of the asp,and the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper’s den.

9. They shall not hurt or destroyin all My holy mountain,for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord,as the waters cover the sea.

10. In that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, who shall stand as a banner to the peoples. For him shall the nations seek. And his rest shall be glorious.

11. In that day the Lord shall set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people, who shall be left, from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.

12. He shall set up a banner for the nations,and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel,and gather together the dispersed of Judahfrom the four corners of the earth.

13. The envy also of Ephraim shall depart,and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off;Ephraim shall not envy Judah,and Judah shall not harass Ephraim.

14. But they shall swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines towards the west;they shall plunder the sons of the east together;they shall lay their hand on Edom and Moab,and the children of Ammon shall obey them.

15. The Lord shall utterly destroythe tongue of the Egyptian sea,and with His mighty wind He shall shake His handover the River,and shall strike it into seven streams,and make men walk over dry-shod.

16. There shall be a highway for the remnant of His people,who will be left from Assyria,as it was for Israelwhen he came up from the land of Egypt.
