Micah 5:2-4
Contemporary English Version
Micah 5:2-4
Contemporary English Version
2 (A) Bethlehem Ephrath,
you are one of the smallest towns
in the nation of Judah.
But the Lord will choose
one of your people
to rule the nation—
someone whose family
goes back to ancient times.[a]
3 The Lord will abandon Israel
only until this ruler is born,
and the rest of his family[b]
returns to Israel.
4 Like a shepherd
taking care of his sheep,
this ruler will lead
and care for his people
by the power and glorious name
of the Lord his God.
His people will live securely,
and the whole earth will know
his true greatness,
Contemporary English Version (CEV)
