The King of Peace Is Coming

11 A small tree[a] will begin to grow from the stump of Jesse.[b] That branch will grow from Jesse’s roots. The Lord’s Spirit will always be with that new king to give him wisdom, understanding, guidance, and power. The Spirit will help him know and respect the Lord. He will find joy in obeying the Lord.

This king will not judge people by the way things look. He will not judge by listening to rumors.
