Isaiah 11:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 And shall make him prudent in the fear of the Lord: for he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove by the hearing of his ears.
4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and with equity shall he reprove for the meek of the earth: and he shall [a]smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
5 And justice shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

- Isaiah 11:4 All these properties can agree to none, but only unto Christ: for it is he that toucheth the hearts of the faithful, and mortifieth their concupiscences: and to the wicked he is the savor of death, and to them that shall perish: so that all the world shall be smitten with his rod, which is his word.
