Micah 4:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ Now, why art thou drawn together with grief? Hast thou no king in thee, or is thy counsellor perished, because sorrow hath taken thee as a woman in labour?

¹⁰ Be in pain and labour, O daughter of Sion, as a woman that bringeth forth: for now shalt thou go out of the city, and shalt dwell in the country, and shalt come even to Babylon, there thou shalt be delivered: there the Lord will redeem thee out of the hand of thy enemies.

¹¹ And now many nations are gathered together against thee, and they say: Let her be stoned: and let our eye look upon Sion.
