Micah 5:2-4
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.
Micah 5:2-4
New International Version
2 “But you, Bethlehem(A) Ephrathah,(B)
though you are small among the clans[a] of Judah,
out of you will come for me
one who will be ruler(C) over Israel,
whose origins are from of old,(D)
from ancient times.”(E)
3 Therefore Israel will be abandoned(F)
until the time when she who is in labor bears a son,
and the rest of his brothers return
to join the Israelites.
