Micah 5:2-7

Authorized (King James) Version

² But thou, Beth-lehem Ephratah,
though thou be little among the thousands of Judah,
yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel;
whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
³ Therefore will he give them up,
until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth:
then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.
⁴ And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the Lord,
in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God;
and they shall abide:
for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.
⁵ And this man shall be the peace,
when the Assyrian shall come into our land:
and when he shall tread in our palaces,
then shall we raise against him seven shepherds,
and eight principal men.
⁶ And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword,
and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof:
thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian,
when he cometh into our land,
and when he treadeth within our borders.
⁷ And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people
as a dew from the Lord,
as the showers upon the grass, that tarrieth not for man,
nor waiteth for the sons of men.
