Micah 5:2-5

English Standard Version

²^[a] ^(A)But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah,
    who are too little to be among the clans of ^(B)Judah,
from you shall come forth for me
    one who is to be ^(C)ruler in Israel,
^(D)whose coming forth is ^(E)from of old,
    from ancient days.
³Therefore he shall give them up ^(F)until the time
    when she who is in labor has given birth;
then ^(G)the rest of his brothers shall return
    to the people of Israel.
⁴And he shall stand ^(H)and shepherd his flock ^(I)in the strength of the Lord,
    in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they shall dwell secure, for now ^(J)he shall be great
    to the ends of the earth.
⁵And he shall be ^(K)their peace.

^(L)When the Assyrian comes into our land
and treads in our palaces,
then we will raise against him seven ^(M)shepherds
and eight princes of men;

English Standard Version

The Birth of Jesus Christ

2 In those days ^(A)a decree went out from ^(B)Caesar Augustus that all the world should be ^(C)registered. ²This was the first ^(D)registration when^[a] Quirinius ^(E)was governor of Syria. ³And all went to be registered, each to his own town. ⁴And Joseph also went up ^(F)from Galilee, from the town of ^(G)Nazareth, to Judea, to ^(H)the city of David, which is called ^(I)Bethlehem, ^(J)because he was of the house and lineage of David, ⁵to be registered with Mary, his betrothed,^[b] who was with child. ⁶And ^(K)while they were there, the time came for her to give birth. ⁷And she gave birth to her firstborn son and ^(L)wrapped him in swaddling cloths and ^(M)laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in ^(N)the inn.^[c]

The Shepherds and the Angels

⁸And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. ⁹And an angel of the Lord ^(O)appeared to them, and ^(P)the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. ¹⁰And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all ^(Q)the people. ¹¹For ^(R)unto you is born this day in ^(S)the city of David ^(T)a Savior, who is ^(U)Christ ^(V)the Lord. ¹²And ^(W)this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby ^(X)wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” ¹³And suddenly there was with the angel ^(Y)a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,

¹⁴^(Z)“Glory to God ^(AA)in the highest,
^(AB)and on earth ^(AC)peace ^(AD)among those with whom he is pleased!”^[d]

¹⁵When the angels went away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go over to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.” ¹⁶And they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby ^(AE)lying in a manger. ¹⁷And when they saw it, they made known the saying that had been told them concerning this child. ¹⁸And all who heard it wondered at what the shepherds told them. ¹⁹But ^(AF)Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart. ²⁰And the shepherds returned, ^(AG)glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.
