For every shoe of the soldiers in the battle, and every coat rolled in blood, will be burned in the fire. For to us a Child will be born. To us a Son will be given. And the rule of the nations will be on His shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful, Teacher, Powerful God, Father Who Lives Forever, Prince of Peace.
