Micah 5:1
Compare all
1 Now gather yourself in troops,
O daughter of troops;
He has laid siege against us;
They will astrike the judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek. 

The Coming Messiah

2 “But you, aBethlehem bEphrathah,
Though you are little camong the dthousands of Judah,
Yet out of you shall come forth to Me
The One to be eRuler in Israel,
fWhose goings forth are from1 of old,
From everlasting.” 
3 Therefore He shall give them up,
Until the time that ashe who is in labor has given birth;
Then bthe remnant of His brethren
Shall return to the children of Israel. 
4 And He shall stand and afeed 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 bshall be great
To the ends of the earth; 
5 And this One ashall be peace.
When the Assyrian comes into our land,
And when he treads in our palaces,
Then we will raise against him
Seven shepherds and eight princely men. 

Judgment on Israel’s Enemies

6 They shall1 waste with the sword the land of Assyria,
And the land of aNimrod at its entrances;
Thus He shall bdeliver us from the Assyrian,
When he comes into our land
And when he treads within our borders. 
7 Then athe remnant of Jacob
Shall be in the midst of many peoples,
bLike dew from the Lord,
Like showers on the grass,
That1 tarry for no man
Nor1 wait for the sons of men.
