The Prophet Micah

Literal Standard Version :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 5 -

(Matthew 2:1–12)
1
Now gather yourself together, O daughter of troops, || He has laid a siege against us, || They strike [the] judge of Israel on the cheek with a rod.
2
And you, Beth-Lehem Ephratah, || Little to be among the chiefs of Judah! From you He comes forth to Meto be ruler in Israel, || And His comings forth [are] of old, || From the days of antiquity.”
3
Therefore He gives them up until the time she who brings forth has brought forth, || And the remnant of His brothers return to the sons of Israel.
4
And He has stood and delighted in the strength of YHWH, || In the excellence of the Name of His God YHWH, || And they have remained, || For now He is great to the ends of the earth.
5
And this [One] has been peace. Asshur, when he comes into our land, || And when he treads in our palaces, || We have raised against him seven shepherds, || And eight anointed of man.
6
And they have afflicted the land of Asshur with the sword, || And the land of Nimrod at its openings, || And He has delivered from Asshur when he comes into our land, || And when he treads in our borders.

The Remnant of Jacob

(Micah 2:12–13)
7
And the remnant of Jacob has been in the midst of many peoples, || As dew from YHWHas showers on the herb, || That does not wait for man, nor stays for the sons of men.
8
Indeed, the remnant of Jacob has been among nations, || In the midst of many peoples, || As a lion among beasts of a forest, || As a young lion among ranks of a flock, || Which if it has passed through, || Has both trodden down and has torn, || And there is no deliverer.
9
High is your hand above your adversaries, || And all your enemies are cut off.
10
And it has come to pass in that day,” || A declaration of YHWH, || “I have cut off your horses from your midst, || And I have destroyed your chariots,
11
And I have cut off the cities of your land, || And I have thrown down all your fortresses,
12
And have cut off sorcerers out of your hand, || And observers of clouds—you have none.
13
And I have cut off your carved images, || And your standing-pillars out of your midst, || And you do not bow yourself anymore || To the work of your hands.
14
And I have plucked up your Asherim out of your midst, || And I have destroyed your enemies.
15
And I have done vengeance in anger and in fury, || With the nations who have not listened!”
(Matthew 2:1–12)
1
Now you shall gather yourself in troops, daughter of troops. He has laid siege against us. They will strike the judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek.
2
But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, being small among the clans of Judah, out of you one will come out to me who is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings out are from of old, from ancient times.
3
Therefore he will abandon them until the time that she who is in labor gives birth. Then the rest of his brothers will return to the children of Israel.
4
He shall stand, and shall shepherd in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God. They will live, for then he will be great to the ends of the earth.
5
He will be our peace when Assyria invades our land and when he marches through our fortresses, then we will raise against him seven shepherds, and eight leaders of men.
6
They will rule the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in its gates. He will deliver us from the Assyrian, when he invades our land, and when he marches within our border.

The Remnant of Jacob

(Micah 2:12–13)
7
The remnant of Jacob will be among many peoples like dew from the LORD, like showers on the grass, that don’t wait for man nor wait for the sons of men.
8
The remnant of Jacob will be among the nations, among many peoples, like a lion among the animals of the forest, like a young lion among the flocks of sheep; who, if he goes through, treads down and tears in pieces, and there is no one to deliver.
9
Let your hand be lifted up above your adversaries, and let all of your enemies be cut off.
10
It will happen in that day”, says the LORD,that I will cut off your horses from among you and will destroy your chariots.
11
I will cut off the cities of your land and will tear down all your strongholds.
12
I will destroy witchcraft from your hand. You shall have no soothsayers.
13
I will cut off your engraved images and your pillars from among you; and you shall no more worship the work of your hands.
14
I will uproot your Asherah poles from among you; and I will destroy your cities.
15
I will execute vengeance in anger and wrath on the nations that didn’t listen.”
