弥迦书 5
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶和华的应许
5 耶路撒冷的居民[a]啊,
现在你们要调集军队!
敌人正四面围攻我们,
要用杖击打以色列首领的脸颊。
2 以法他的伯利恒啊,
你在犹大各城中毫不起眼,
但将有一位从你那里出来,
为我统治以色列;
祂的根源自亘古,来自太初。
3 耶和华要将以色列人交给他们的敌人,
直到那临盆的妇人生下儿子。
那时,祂流亡的弟兄将重返他们的以色列同胞那里。
4 祂要挺身而起,
倚靠耶和华的能力,
奉祂上帝耶和华的威名牧养祂的群羊。
他们将安然居住,
因为那时祂必受尊崇,直达地极。
5 祂必给他们带来平安!
亚述人侵略我们的国土、践踏我们的宫殿时,
我们将选立七位牧者和八位首领抗击他们。
6 他们要用刀剑统治亚述,统治宁录地区。
亚述人侵入我们国境、践踏我们疆土时,
祂必拯救我们。
7 雅各余剩的子孙将在万民中像从耶和华那里降下的雨露,
又像洒在草上的甘霖。
他们不依靠人,
不冀望于世人。
8 在各国各民中,
雅各余剩的子孙犹如林间百兽中的狮子,
又像闯入羊群的猛狮,
将猎物扑倒撕碎,
无人能搭救。
9 愿你们伸手战胜仇敌!
愿你们的仇敌都被铲除!
10 耶和华说:
“到那日,
我要消灭你们的战马,
毁坏你们的战车。
11 我要摧毁你们境内的城邑,
拆除你们所有的堡垒。
12 我要除掉你们手中的巫术,
使你们那里不再有占卜的。
13 我要从你们中间除去雕刻的神像和神柱,
使你们不再跪拜自己所造的。
14 我要从你们中间铲除亚舍拉神像,
毁灭你们的偶像。
15 我要在烈怒中报应那些不听从我的国家。”

Magandang Balita Biblia
5 Mga taga-Jerusalem, tipunin ninyo ang inyong mga hukbo sapagkat kinukubkob na tayo ng mga kaaway. Sinasalakay na nila ang pinuno ng Israel!
Ang Paghahari ng Tagapagpalaya
2 Sinabi(A) ni Yahweh, “Ngunit ikaw, Bethlehem Efrata, bagama't pinakamaliit ka sa mga angkan ng Juda ay magmumula sa iyong angkan ang isang mamumuno sa Israel. Ang kanyang pinagmulan ay buhat pa noong una, noong unang panahon pa.” 3 Kaya nga, ang bayan ni Yahweh ay ibibigay niya sa kamay ng mga kaaway hanggang sa isilang ng babae ang sanggol na mamumuno. Pagkatapos, ang mga Israelitang binihag ng ibang bansa ay kanyang ibabalik sa kanilang mga kababayan. 4 Pagdating ng pinunong iyon, pamamahalaan niya ang kanyang bayan sa pamamagitan ng kapangyarihan ni Yahweh sapagkat taglay niya ang kadakilaan ng pangalan ni Yahweh na kanyang Diyos. At ang Israel ay mamumuhay na ligtas, sapagkat kikilalanin ng buong daigdig ang haring iyon. 5 At sa kanya magmumula ang kapayapaan.
Ang Pagliligtas at ang Pagpaparusa
Kapag dumating ang mga taga-Asiria upang sakupin ang ating lupain, magsusugo tayo ng sapat na bilang ng pinakamalalakas na pinunong lalaban sa kanila. 6 Sa(B) pamamagitan ng mga sandata ay tatalunin nila ang Asiria na lupain ni Nimrod at ipagtatanggol nila tayo kapag sumalakay ang mga taga-Asiria.
7 Ang mga nakaligtas na Israelita ay maninirahan sa maraming mga bansa. Matutulad sila sa hamog na mula kay Yahweh at para silang ulan na dumidilig sa damuhan. Sa Diyos sila aasa at hindi sa tao. 8 At ang mga Israelitang naiwan sa mga bansa ay magiging parang leon na maghahanap ng pagkain sa kagubatan. Lulusubin nila ang mga kawan ng tupa, at lalapain sila; walang sinumang makakapagligtas sa mga tupa. 9 Sasakupin at papatayin ng Israel ang kanyang mga kaaway.
10 “At sa araw na iyon,” sabi ni Yahweh, “aalisan ko kayo ng mga kabayo at sisirain ko ang inyong mga karwahe. 11 Gigibain ko ang inyong mga lunsod at ibabagsak ang matitibay ninyong tanggulan. 12 Wawasakin ko ang inyong mga agimat at mawawala na rin ang mga manghuhula. 13 Wawasakin ko ang inyong mga diyus-diyosan at mga haliging itinuturing ninyong sagrado, at hindi na kayo sasamba sa ginawa ng inyong mga kamay. 14 Dudurugin ko rin ang inyong mga diyus-diyosang Ashera at iguguho ang inyong mga lunsod. 15 Ibabagsak ko sa inyo ang aking poot, at isasagawa ang aking paghihiganti sa mga bansang hindi sumunod sa akin.”
Micah 5
New International Version
A Promised Ruler From Bethlehem
5 [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.
2 “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)
3 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.
4 He will stand and shepherd his flock(H)
in the strength of the Lord,
in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they will live securely, for then his greatness(I)
will reach to the ends of the earth.
5 And he will be our peace(J)
when the Assyrians invade(K) our land
and march through our fortresses.
We will raise against them seven shepherds,
even eight commanders,(L)
6 who will rule[c] the land of Assyria with the sword,
the land of Nimrod(M) with drawn sword.[d](N)
He will deliver us from the Assyrians
when they invade our land
and march across our borders.(O)
7 The remnant(P) of Jacob will be
in the midst of many peoples
like dew(Q) from the Lord,
like showers on the grass,(R)
which do not wait for anyone
or depend on man.
8 The remnant of Jacob will be among the nations,
in the midst of many peoples,
like a lion among the beasts of the forest,(S)
like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
which mauls and mangles(T) as it goes,
and no one can rescue.(U)
9 Your hand will be lifted up(V) in triumph over your enemies,
and all your foes will be destroyed.
10 “In that day,” declares the Lord,
“I will destroy your horses from among you
and demolish your chariots.(W)
11 I will destroy the cities(X) of your land
and tear down all your strongholds.(Y)
12 I will destroy your witchcraft
and you will no longer cast spells.(Z)
13 I will destroy your idols(AA)
and your sacred stones from among you;(AB)
you will no longer bow down
to the work of your hands.(AC)
14 I will uproot from among you your Asherah poles[e](AD)
when I demolish your cities.
15 I will take vengeance(AE) in anger and wrath
on the nations that have not obeyed me.”

New American Standard Bible
Birth of the King in Bethlehem
5 “[a]Now muster yourselves in troops, daughter of troops;
[b]They have laid siege against us;
With a rod they will (A)strike the judge of Israel on the cheek.
2 [c]But as for (B)you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
Too little to be among the clans of Judah,
From (C)you One will come forth for Me to be (D)ruler in Israel.
His times of coming forth are (E)from long ago,
From the days of eternity.”
3 Therefore He will (F)give them up until the time
When she (G)who is in labor has given birth.
Then the (H)remainder of His kinsmen
Will return to the sons of Israel.
4 And He will arise and (I)shepherd His flock
In the strength of the Lord,
In the majesty of the name of the Lord His God.
And they will [d]remain,
Because [e]at that time He will be great
To the (J)ends of the earth.
5 This One (K)will be our peace.
When the (L)Assyrian invades our land,
When he tramples on our [f]citadels,
Then we will raise against him
Seven shepherds and eight leaders of people.
6 They will (M)shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword,
The land of (N)Nimrod at its entrances;
And He will (O)rescue us from the Assyrian
When he invades our land,
And when he tramples our territory.
7 Then the (P)remnant of Jacob
Will be among many peoples
Like (Q)dew from the Lord,
Like (R)showers on vegetation
That do not wait for man,
Or delay for [g]mankind.
8 The remnant of Jacob
Will be among the nations,
Among many peoples
(S)Like a lion among the animals of the forest,
Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
Which, if he passes through,
(T)Tramples and (U)tears,
And there is (V)no one who can rescue.
9 Your hand will be (W)lifted up against your adversaries,
And all your enemies will be eliminated.
10 “And it will be on that day,” declares the Lord,
“(X)That I will eliminate your (Y)horses from among you,
And destroy your chariots.
11 I will also eliminate the (Z)cities of your land,
And tear down all your (AA)fortifications.
12 I will eliminate (AB)sorceries from your hand,
And you will have no fortune-tellers.
13 (AC)I will eliminate your carved images
And your memorial stones from among you,
So that you will no longer bow down
To the work of your hands.
14 I will uproot your [h](AD)Asherim from among you,
And destroy your cities.
15 And I will (AE)execute vengeance in anger and wrath
On the nations which have not obeyed.”
