Micah 5:2-4
Complete Jewish Bible
2 (3) Therefore he will give up [Isra’el]
only until she who is in labor gives birth.
Then the rest of his kinsmen
will return to the people of Isra’el.
3 (4) He will stand and feed his flock
in the strength of Adonai,
in the majesty of the name
of Adonai his God;
and they will stay put, as he grows great
to the very ends of the earth;
4 (5) and this will be peace.
If Ashur invades our land,
if he overruns our fortresses,
we will raise seven shepherds against him,
eight leaders of men.
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.
