Isaiah 9:6-7
New King James Version
6 (A)For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a (B)Son is given;
And (C)the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
(D)Wonderful, Counselor, (E)Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, (F)Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of His government and peace
(G)There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The (H)zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
Isaiah 59:1-2

2 But your iniquities have separated you from your God;
And your sins have hidden His face from you,
So that He will (B)not hear.
