Isaiah 9:4

New Light: The Birth Of A King

³ Thou hast multiplied the nation, Thou hast made great its joy, They have joyed before Thee as the joy in harvest, As men rejoice in their apportioning spoil. ⁴ Because the yoke of its burden, And the staff of its shoulder, the rod of its exactor, Thou hast broken as in the day of Midian. ⁵ For every battle of a warrior is with rushing, and raiment rolled in blood, And it hath been for burning -- fuel of fire.
