彌賽亞出自猶大的伯利恆

女子啊!現在你要聚集成隊;

仇敵正在圍攻我們;

他們用杖擊打以色列執政者的臉頰。(本節在《馬索拉文本》為4:14)

伯利恆以法他啊!

你在猶大諸城中雖然細小(“伯利恆……細小”有古卷作“以法他家啊,你在猶大諸族中雖然細小”),

必有一位從你那裡出來,為我作以色列的統治者;

他的根源從太初,

從亙古就有了。(本節在《馬索拉文本》為5:1)

因此,耶和華必把以色列人交給敵人,

直到那要生產的婦人生下孩子來;

那時,他其餘的兄弟,

就必歸回以色列人那裡。

A Promised Ruler From Bethlehem

[a]Marshal your troops now, city of troops,
    for a siege is laid against us.
They will strike Israel’s ruler
    on the cheek(A) with a rod.

“But you, Bethlehem(B) Ephrathah,(C)
    though you are small among the clans[b] of Judah,
out of you will come for me
    one who will be ruler(D) over Israel,
whose origins are from of old,(E)
    from ancient times.”(F)

Therefore Israel will be abandoned(G)
    until the time when she who is in labor bears a son,
and the rest of his brothers return
    to join the Israelites.
