33 Behold, the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, will lop off the boughs with a terrible crash;
Those also who are high in stature will be cut in pieces
And those who are lofty will be made low.
34 He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an iron axe,
And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
The Judgments of the Branch
Then a shoot will spring from the stem of Jesse,
And a branch from his roots will bear fruit.
2 The Spirit of Yahweh will rest on Him,
The spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The spirit of counsel and might,
The spirit of knowledge and the fear of Yahweh.
3 And He will delight in the fear of Yahweh,
And He will not judge by what His eyes see,
Nor render a decision by what His ears hear;
4 But with righteousness He will judge the poor,
And decide with uprightness for the afflicted of the earth;
And He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth,
And with the breath of His lips He will put the wicked to death.
5 Also righteousness will be the belt about His loins,
And faithfulness the belt about His waist.
