Micah 5:1-3

New Catholic Bible

¹ But from you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah,^[a]
    among the tiniest of the clans of Judah,
from you will come forth for me
    one who is to be a ruler in Israel,
one whose origins are from the distant past,
    from ancient times.
² Therefore, the Lord will abandon them
    only until she who is in labor has given birth.
Then those of the people who survive
    will be reunited with the Israelites.
³ He will rise up to shepherd his flock
    by the strength of the Lord,
in the majesty of the name
    of the Lord his God.
And they will live in security,
    for then his greatness will be renowned
to the ends of the earth.
