Micah 5:2-6
Holman Christian Standard Bible
2 [a]Bethlehem Ephrathah,(A)
you are small among the clans of Judah;
One will come from you(B)
to be ruler over Israel for Me.(C)
His origin[b] is from antiquity,(D)
from eternity.[c]
3 Therefore, He will abandon them(E) until the time
when she who is in labor(F) has given birth;
then the rest of His brothers(G) will return
to the people of Israel.(H)
4 He will stand and shepherd them(I)
in the strength of Yahweh,
in the majestic name of Yahweh His God.
They will live securely,
for then His greatness will extend
to the ends of the earth.(J)
5 He will be their peace.(K)
When Assyria invades our land,(L)
when it marches against our fortresses,
we will raise against it seven shepherds,
even eight leaders of men.
6 They will shepherd(M) the land of Assyria with the sword,
the land of Nimrod(N) with a drawn blade.[d]
So He will rescue us(O) from Assyria
when it invades our land,
when it marches against our territory.
