Isaiah 11:8 in Context — Isaiah 11

6 Morará el lobo con el cordero, y el tigre con el cabrito se acostará: el becerro y el león y la bestia doméstica andarán juntos, y un niño los pastoreará.

7 La vaca y la osa pacerán, sus crías se echarán juntas; y el león como el buey comerá paja.

8 Y el niño de teta se entretendrá sobre la cueva del áspid, y el recién destetado extenderá su mano sobre la caverna del basilisco.

9 No harán mal ni dañarán en todo mi santo monte; porque la tierra será llena del conocimiento de Jehová, como cubren la mar las aguas.

10 Y acontecerá en aquel tiempo que la raíz de Isaí, la cual estará [puesta] por pendón á los pueblos, será buscada de las gentes; y su holganza será gloria.
