Though you are little (C)among the (D)thousands of Judah,
Yet out of you shall come forth to Me
The One to be (E)Ruler in Israel,
(F)Whose goings forth are from of old,
From [a]everlasting.”

Until the time that (G)she who is in labor has given birth;
Then (H)the remnant of His brethren
Shall return to the children of Israel.
4 And He shall stand and (I)feed[b] His flock
In the strength of the Lord,
In the majesty of the name of the Lord His God;
And they shall abide,
For now He (J)shall be great
To the ends of the earth;

As the flock of His people.
