The cow and the bear will graze,
    and[a] their young will lie down together,
        and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
The nursing child will play
    over the hole of the cobra,
        and the weaned child will put his hand on vipers’ dens.[b]
They will neither harm nor destroy
    on[c] my holy mountain;
for the earth will be full
    of the knowledge[d] of the Lord,[e]
        as the waters cover the sea.”
