For every warrior’s [a]sandal from the noisy battle,
And garments rolled in blood,
(A)Will be used for burning and fuel [b]of fire.

(B)For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a (C)Son is given;
And (D)the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
(E)Wonderful, Counselor, (F)Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, (G)Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of His government and peace
(H)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 (I)zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

  2. Isaiah 9:5 for the fire

Surely every battle of the warrior is with noise, and with tumbling of garments in blood: but this shall be [a]with burning, and devouring of fire.

For unto us a child is born, and unto us a Son is given: and the government is upon his shoulder, and he shall call his name, Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting [b]Father, The prince of peace.

The increase of his government and peace shall have none end: he shall sit upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to stablish it with judgment, and with justice, from henceforth, even forever: [c]the zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
