• “But a shoot shall sprout from the stump of Jesse,
      and from his roots a bud shall blossom.
      The spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him:
      a spirit of wisdom and of understanding,
      A spirit of counsel and of strength,
      a spirit of knowledge and of fear of the LORD,
      and his delight shall be the fear of the LORD.”

      Isaiah 11: 1-3
