Read it in contextIsaiah 9:1–5
1 But gloom will not be the lot of her who was in anguish. In the earlier time he treated the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali with contempt, but in the later time he will bring honor to the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles. 2 The people who walk in darkness have seen a great light; on those who live in the land of the shadow of death a light has shone. 3 You have made the nation many and made its joy great. They are glad in your presence the way people are glad at harvest time, the way they celebrate when they share out the plunder. 4 For the yoke that weighed them down, the staff across their shoulders, the rod of the one who drove them—you have smashed them, as on the day of Midian. 5 For every warrior’s boot that tramped in the din of battle, and every cloak rolled in blood, will be for burning, food for the fire.
