Micah 4:8-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁸ “As for you, ^[a](A)tower of the flock,
^[b]Hill of the daughter of Zion,
To you it will come—
Even the ^(B)former dominion will come,
The kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.

⁹ “Now, why do you ^(C)cry out loudly?
Is there no king among you,
Or has your ^(D)counselor perished,
That agony has gripped you like a woman in childbirth?
¹⁰ “^(E)Writhe and labor to give birth,
Daughter of Zion,
Like a woman in childbirth;
For now you will ^(F)go out of the city,
Dwell in the field,
And go to Babylon.
^(G)There you will be rescued;
^(H)There the Lord will redeem you
From the hand of your enemies.
