Isaiah 11:1-10
New International Version
The Branch From Jesse
11 A shoot(A) will come up from the stump(B) of Jesse;(C)
from his roots a Branch(D) will bear fruit.(E)
2 The Spirit(F) of the Lord will rest on him—
the Spirit of wisdom(G) and of understanding,
the Spirit of counsel and of might,(H)
the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord—
3 and he will delight in the fear(I) of the Lord.
He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes,(J)
or decide by what he hears with his ears;(K)
4 but with righteousness(L) he will judge the needy,(M)
with justice(N) he will give decisions for the poor(O) of the earth.
He will strike(P) the earth with the rod of his mouth;(Q)
with the breath(R) of his lips he will slay the wicked.(S)
5 Righteousness will be his belt(T)
and faithfulness(U) the sash around his waist.(V)
6 The wolf will live with the lamb,(W)
the leopard will lie down with the goat,
the calf and the lion and the yearling[a] together;
and a little child will lead them.
7 The cow will feed with the bear,
their young will lie down together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox.(X)
8 The infant(Y) will play near the cobra’s den,
and the young child will put its hand into the viper’s(Z) nest.
9 They will neither harm nor destroy(AA)
on all my holy mountain,(AB)
for the earth(AC) will be filled with the knowledge(AD) of the Lord
as the waters cover the sea.
10 In that day(AE) the Root of Jesse(AF) will stand as a banner(AG) for the peoples; the nations(AH) will rally to him,(AI) and his resting place(AJ) will be glorious.(AK)

New International Version
The Mountain of the Lord(A)
4 In the last days
the mountain(B) of the Lord’s temple will be established
as the highest of the mountains;
it will be exalted above the hills,(C)
and peoples will stream to it.(D)
2 Many nations will come and say,
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,(E)
to the temple of the God of Jacob.(F)
He will teach us(G) his ways,(H)
so that we may walk in his paths.”
The law(I) will go out from Zion,
the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
3 He will judge between many peoples
and will settle disputes for strong nations far and wide.(J)
They will beat their swords into plowshares
and their spears into pruning hooks.(K)
Nation will not take up sword against nation,
nor will they train for war(L) anymore.(M)
4 Everyone will sit under their own vine
and under their own fig tree,(N)
and no one will make them afraid,(O)
for the Lord Almighty has spoken.(P)

10 “In that day,” declares the Lord,
“I will destroy your horses from among you
and demolish your chariots.(A)
11 I will destroy the cities(B) of your land
and tear down all your strongholds.(C)
12 I will destroy your witchcraft
and you will no longer cast spells.(D)
13 I will destroy your idols(E)
and your sacred stones from among you;(F)
you will no longer bow down
to the work of your hands.(G)
14 I will uproot from among you your Asherah poles[a](H)
when I demolish your cities.
15 I will take vengeance(I) in anger and wrath
on the nations that have not obeyed me.”

Revelation 19:15-19
New International Version
15 Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword(A) with which to strike down(B) the nations. “He will rule them with an iron scepter.”[a](C) He treads the winepress(D) of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. 16 On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written:(E)
king of kings and lord of lords.(F)
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds(G) flying in midair,(H) “Come,(I) gather together for the great supper of God,(J) 18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people,(K) free and slave,(L) great and small.”(M)
19 Then I saw the beast(N) and the kings of the earth(O) and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse(P) and his army.
