7  In his days may ^zthe righteous flourish,

and ^apeace abound, till the moon be no more!

5  And he shall be ^atheir peace.

^bWhen the Assyrian comes into our land

and treads in our palaces,

then we will raise against him seven ^cshepherds

and eight princes of men;

10  ^cI will cut off the chariot from Ephraim

and ^dthe war horse from Jerusalem;

and the battle bow shall be cut off,

and ^ehe shall speak peace to the nations;

^fhis rule shall be from sea to sea,

and from ^gthe River¹ to the ends of the earth.

14  ⁱ“Glory to God ^jin the highest,

^jand on earth ^kpeace ^lamong those with whom he is pleased!”¹
