11 Then a ^(A)shoot will spring from the ^(B)stem of Jesse,
And a ^(C)branch from ^(D)his roots will bear fruit.

² For He grew up before Him like a ^(A)tender ^[a]shoot,
And like a root out of parched ground;
He has ^(B)no stately form or majesty
That we should look upon Him,
Nor appearance that we should ^[b]be attracted to Him.

⁵ “Behold, the ^(A)days are coming,” declares the Lord,
“When I will raise up for David a righteous ^[a](B)Branch;
And He will ^(C)reign as king and ^[b]act wisely
And ^(D)do justice and righteousness in the land.
