For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

The verse 6 is found in chapter 9 of Isaiah. The darkness of the preceding chapters gives way to a great light over Galilee and the promise of a child whose rule will bring justice and peace. The titles attributed to the ruler present extraordinary authority, and David’s throne is established upon justice. The contrast between oppression and righteous rule prepares one of Isaiah’s great messianic portraits.

Porque un niño nos es nacido, hijo nos es dado; y el principado sobre su hombro: y llamarase su nombre Admirable, Consejero, Dios fuerte, Padre eterno, Príncipe de paz.
Porque un niño nos ha nacido, un hijo se nos ha dado; el gobierno estará sobre su hombro y se le dará por nombre Admirable Consejero, Dios Fuerte, Padre Eterno, Príncipe de Paz.
Car un enfant nous est né, un fils nous est donné, Et la domination reposera sur son épaule; On l'appellera Admirable, Conseiller, Dieu puissant, Père éternel, Prince de la paix.
Perciocchè il Fanciullo ci è nato, il Figliuolo ci è stato dato; e l’imperio è stato posto sopra le sue spalle; e il suo Nome sarà chiamato: L’Ammirabile, il Consigliere, l’Iddio forte, il Padre dell’eternità, il Principe della pace.
Porque um menino nos nasceu, um filho se nos deu, e o principado está sobre os seus ombros, e se chamará o seu nome: Maravilhoso, Conselheiro, Deus Forte, Pai da Eternidade, Príncipe da Paz.
因有一嬰孩為我們而生; 有一子賜給我們。 政權必擔在他的肩頭上; 他名稱為「奇妙策士、全能的上帝、永在的父、和平的君」。
