Micah:5:1-5
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Yet now gather yourselves in troops ,
O people of troops !
They lay siege against us ;
With a rod they smite the cheek of the judge of Israel .
*
But thou ,
Bethlehem Ephratah ,
Who art small to be among the thousands of Judah ,
Out of thee shall he come forth for me to be ruler in Israel ,
Whose origin is from the ancient age ,
from the days of old !
*
But He shall deliver them up ,
Until she that bringeth forth hath brought forth ;
Then shall the residue of his brethren return to the children of Israel .
*
He shall stand and rule in the strength of Jehovah ,
In the majesty of Jehovah ,
his God ;
And they shall dwell in security ,
For he shall be great even to the ends of the earth .
*
And he shall be peace .
When the Assyrian shall come into our land ,
To trample upon our palaces ,
Then shall we raise against him seven shepherds ,
And eight leaders of the people ,
