Micah 5:1-4

Now, daughter who is under attack, you slash yourself in grief; a siege is set against us! They are striking the judge of Israel on the cheek with a rod. ² Bethlehem Ephrathah, you are small among the clans of Judah; one will come from you to be ruler over Israel for me. His origin is from antiquity, from ancient times. ³ Therefore, Israel will be abandoned until the time when she who is in labor has given birth; then the rest of the ruler’s brothers will return to the people of Israel. ⁴ He will stand and shepherd them in the strength of the Lord, in the majestic name of the Lord his God.They will live securely,for then his greatness will extendto the ends of the eart.
