你使这国民繁多, 加增他们的喜乐; 他们在你面前欢喜, 好像收割的欢喜, 像人分掳物那样的快乐。 因为他们所负的重轭 和肩头上的杖, 并欺压他们人的棍, 你都已经折断, 好像在米甸的日子一样。 战士在乱杀之间所穿戴的盔甲, 并那滚在血中的衣服, 都必作为可烧的, 当作火柴。 因有一婴孩为我们而生; 有一子赐给我们。 政权必担在他的肩头上; 他名称为「奇妙策士、全能的 神、永在的父、和平的君」。 他的政权与平安必加增无穷。 他必在大卫的宝座上治理他的国, 以公平公义使国坚定稳固, 从今直到永远。 万军之耶和华的热心必成就这事。

You have multiplied the nation; you have increased its joy; they rejoice before you as with joy at the harvest, as they are glad when they divide the spoil. For the yoke of his burden, and the staff for his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, you have broken as on the day of Midian. For every boot of the tramping warrior in battle tumult and every garment rolled in blood will be burned as fuel for the fire. For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this.
