Micah 5:5-7

New International Version

⁵ And he will be our peace^(A)
    when the Assyrians invade^(B) our land
    and march through our fortresses.
We will raise against them seven shepherds,
    even eight commanders,^(C)
6 who will rule^[a] the land of Assyria with the sword,
    the land of Nimrod^(D) with drawn sword.^[b](E)
He will deliver us from the Assyrians
    when they invade our land
    and march across our borders.^(F)

⁷ The remnant^(G) of Jacob will be
    in the midst of many peoples
like dew^(H) from the Lord,
    like showers on the grass,^(I)
which do not wait for anyone
    or depend on man.
