Isaiah 11:4 Douay-Rheims

But he shall judge the poor with justice, and shall reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: land he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips he shall slay the wicked.

Francis Patrick Kenrick

1796–1863 Catholic

The«. 2 : 8. The terms express the act of a judge who condemns culprits. His sentence serves as a rod to scourge the wicked, and as an axe inflicting death. Christ our Lord exercises power in a different war.
