Micah 5:7-9
Contemporary English Version
Micah 5:7-9
Contemporary English Version
The Survivors Will Be Safe
7 A few of Jacob's descendants
survived and are scattered
among the nations.
But the Lord will let them
cover the earth like dew and rain
that refreshes the soil.
8 At present they are scattered,
but later they will attack,
as though they were fierce lions
pouncing on sheep.
Their enemies will be torn
to shreds,
with no one to save them;
9 they will be helpless,
completely destroyed.

New International Version
Micah 5:7-9
New International Version
7 The remnant(A) of Jacob will be
in the midst of many peoples
like dew(B) from the Lord,
like showers on the grass,(C)
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,(D)
like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
which mauls and mangles(E) as it goes,
and no one can rescue.(F)
9 Your hand will be lifted up(G) in triumph over your enemies,
and all your foes will be destroyed.
