Isaiah 11:8
The infant will play by the cobra's den, and the toddler will reach into the viper's nest.
Context
8The nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra,
         And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper’s den.

9They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain,
         For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD
         As the waters cover the sea.

10Then in that day
         The nations will resort to the root of Jesse,
         Who will stand as a signal for the peoples;
         And His resting place will be glorious.

The Restored Remnant

11Then it will happen on that day that the Lord
         Will again recover the second time with His hand
         The remnant of His people, who will remain,
         From Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath,
         And from the islands of the sea.

12And He will lift up a standard for the nations
         And assemble the banished ones of Israel,
         And will gather the dispersed of Judah
         From the four corners of the earth.

13Then the jealousy of Ephraim will depart,
         And those who harass Judah will be cut off;
         Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah,
         And Judah will not harass Ephraim.

14They will swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines on the west;
         Together they will plunder the sons of the east;
         They will possess Edom and Moab,
         And the sons of Ammon will be subject to them.

15And the LORD will utterly destroy
         The tongue of the Sea of Egypt;
         And He will wave His hand over the River
         With His scorching wind;
         And He will strike it into seven streams
         And make men walk over dry-shod.

16And there will be a highway from Assyria
         For the remnant of His people who will be left,
         Just as there was for Israel
         In the day that they came up out of the land of Egypt.
