Isaiah 9:1-3

Tree of Life Version

9 The people walking in darkness
    will see a great light.
Upon those dwelling in the land of the shadow of death,
    light will shine.^[a]
2 You will multiply the nation.
    You will increase the joy.
They will rejoice before You
    like the joy in the harvest,
as they revel when they divide spoil.
³ For You will break the burdensome yoke
    and the rod on his shoulder—
the war-club of his oppressor—
    as in the day of Midian.
