110 They are gone over the passage; they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramath is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled.

111 Lift up the voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth.

112 Madmenah is removed: the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee.

113 As yet shall he remain at Nob that day; he shall shake his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

114 Behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts shall lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down: and the haughty shall be humbled.

115 And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.

116 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a branch shall grow out of his roots;

117 And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, and spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;

118 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears;

119 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

120 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
