Micah 5:2-4

Modern English Version

² But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
    although you are small among the tribes of Judah,
from you will come forth for Me
    one who will be ruler over Israel.
His origins are from of old,
    from ancient days.

³ Therefore He will give them up,
    until the time when she who is in labor has given birth,
and the rest of his brothers will return
    to the children of Israel.

⁴ He will stand and shepherd
    in the strength of the Lord,
    in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God;
then they will live securely, because now He will be great
    until the ends of the earth;
