Micah 4:8-10

Modern English Version

⁹ Now why do you cry loudly?
    Have you no king?
Has your counselor perished,
    that agony has seized you like the woman in labor?
¹⁰ Writhe and bring forth, daughter of Zion,
    like the woman in labor,
because now you will go forth from the city
    and reside in the field,
and you will come to Babylon.
    There you will be rescued;
there the Lord will redeem you
    from the hand of your enemies.
