Isaiah 9:4-7 Common English Bible (CEB)

4. As on the day of Midian, you’ve shattered the yoke that burdened them,the staff on their shoulders,and the rod of their oppressor.

5. Because every boot of the thundering warriors,and every garment rolled in bloodwill be burned, fuel for the fire.

6. A child is born to us, a son is given to us,and authority will be on his shoulders.He will be namedWonderful Counselor, Mighty God,Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

7. There will be vast authority and endless peacefor David’s throne and for his kingdom,establishing and sustaining itwith justice and righteousnessnow and forever.The zeal of the Lord of heavenly forces will do this.
