Micah 5:1-3

New International Reader's Version

“Bethlehem Ephrathah, you might not be
    an important town in the nation of Judah.
But out of you will come for me
    a ruler over Israel.
His family line goes back
    to the early years of your nation.
It goes all the way back
    to days of long ago.”

³ The Lord will hand over his people to their enemies.
    That will last until the pregnant woman bears her promised son.
Then the rest of his relatives in Judah
    will return to their land.
