Matthew 4:13-16
New King James Version
13 And leaving Nazareth, He came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
15 “The(A) land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles:
16 (B)The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light,
And upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death
Light has dawned.”
Isaiah 9:1-2
New King James Version
The Government of the Promised Son(A)
9 Nevertheless (B)the gloom will not be upon her who is distressed,
As when at (C)first He lightly esteemed
The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
And (D)afterward more heavily oppressed her,
By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
In Galilee of the Gentiles.
2 (E)The people who walked in darkness
Have seen a great light;
Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death,
Upon them a light has shined.
Isaiah 9:6-7
New King James Version
6 (A)For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a (B)Son is given;
And (C)the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
(D)Wonderful, Counselor, (E)Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, (F)Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of His government and peace
(G)There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The (H)zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
