In the JPS Bible, Isaiah 9:6 (KJV) 9:5(JPS) is
translated as

For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us;
and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name
is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom

Sujata:
I'm curious -- what JPS edition are you quoting from?

Both my printed 1985, and my revised e-edition of 1997, render Is. 9:5b as:

>> ....... he has been named "The Mighty God is planning grace (d);
The Eternal Father, a peaceable ruler" -<<

with note (d) = as in 25:1
