The verb natzar-pronounced-naw-tzar– means: to protect; to guard; to maintain ; to observe. As a noun, netzer refers to: someone who protects ; guards; maintains and observes the legacy (inheritance; endowment; birthright) of a bloodline (lineage; family). Putting it explicitly, a netzer is a descendant (scion; shoot from of the rootstock) of an ancient family-tree (pedigree) who has inherited the bloodline’s (family’s; lineage’s) birthright . The famous oracle in this chapter declares that a netzer (desendant; new- shoot; branch) will come-out (emerge) from the stump (bottom part of a tree left projecting from the ground) of the felled (cut-down) family tree of King David’s father, Jesse. The basis for this concept is found in many Semitic peoples. The concept is that “A-Family-Is-Like-A-Tree”, with its vital-force residing in the root-system. The people of Jesse’s lineage are considered precious scions or shoots of Jehovah’s vineyard (plantation). For them, a glorious future awaits. In the final days we can expect to see a person or persons descended from the rootstock of Jesse arriving on the scene. The descendant will have all the patrilineal-genetic qualifications possessed by King David of the Old Testament, but the descendant will have a latter-day commission to fulfill.

1. A shoot (descendant; branch; sprout; shoot) will emerge from the roots (rootstock) of Jesse’s family-tree and from its royal bloodline, a branch (descendant; shoot) of Jesse will, bear good (functional; useful; suitable) fruit (effects; results).

2. The spirit of God will endow (bless; provide; funish) this descendant (shoot; sprout) with the spirit of wisdom (reason and the use of it), the spirit of understanding (distinguishing differences between things; discernment; insight) and a sense of personal purpose (function; role; motivation) coupled with knowledge-of (intimate-acquaintance-with; communion-with) Israel’s God.
3. The descendant will fear (reverence) the Lord, God of Israel and will make no judgments based on what is seen with the eyes nor decide in a dispute based on what is heard with the ears.

4. Sentences (verdicts; punishments judgments) pronounced (voiced; vocalized; proclaimed; uttered; delivered) by Jesse’s descendant will be in-the-behalf-of (to help; to benefit) the poor and needy having its roots in righteousness (justice) and it will convict men who lie-in-wait (ambush), on behalf of (in-the-name-of ; representing) the Saints (Holy-Ones) of God’s people. Then, the entire world-wide membership of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints will be struck (“dealt-a-blow”; deeply-impressed) by the punishing rod (staff; “hickory-stick”; authority; power; dominion) possessed by this new shoot (descendant;branch; sprout) of Jesse.

5. Righteousness (uprightness; moral-integrity) will gird (surround) the loins (genital and pubic area; flanks; potency) of this descendant and trustworthiness (reliability) will be the sash (waistband; girdle) around the descendant’s waist.

. 6. Mormon Wolves (priesthood-predators) are tarrying (lingering; staying in a place longer than necessary, typically because of a reluctance to leave; vacationing ) among the lambs (innocent-disciples), while leopards (fouled and spotted-priesthood-leaders) assemble (muster; rally; convene) the the goats (ambitious-men; aspiring-men; enterprising-men) among Israel’s people. They lie-in-wait (conceal themselves, waiting to surprise, attack, or catch) Israel’s people (rank and file Mormons) by ambushing (sneaking-up on) them during times of peace and security. In this way Salt Lake’s top-leadership facilitates (simplifies; greases-the-wheels-on; speeds-up; opens-doors-for; makes-easy) its massive “cover-up” (whitewash; fraud). Salt Lake General Authorities are nothing but fatted-bulls (pampered-leaders; coddled-leaders; favored-leaders; leaders who are waited upon hand and foot) who’ve amalgamated themselves (combined or united to form one organization or structure) by all their plygt wives termarriages with Israelite women, while worthless offspring of solicitous (anxiously desireous) Mormon aristocracy drive (coerse; hustle; press; push; shove; goad; hound) Israel’s people (Mormon people) along before them, like cattle.

7. And Mormon men who are yoked (chained; harnessed) or move-too-slowly ( are sluggish; dull; unintelligent) will be coerced by this generation of Salt Lake’s prophets, who’ll attempt to muster (recruit; draft; conscript; mobilize; rally) them together. The Prophets of Salt Lake City lie-in-wait,(conceal themselves, waiting to surprise, attack, or catch someone) together, as they mass-produce (produce many standardized priesthood authorities) by an automated mechanical process and crown Salt Lake’s “Oxen” (presiding priesthood leaders) as Israel’s kings.”

8. The spiritual-infants (General Priesthood Authorities) at Salt Lake headquarters delight themselves continuously in (depending-on; relying on; being controlled by) the hole (lair; hide-away; nest; sanctuary; hide-out; habitat) of an encircling (enfolding; strangling; suffocating) Cobra and the bastion (citadel) of serpents exercising their priesthood power by focusing (guiding; concentrating; centralizing; zeroing-in) Israel’s attention on the “door-way” (portal; opening; entrance) leading to Assyria (“unparalleled social and financial success guaranteed thru advancement in the Melchizedek priesthood organization”).
