1“1NowH6258 musterH1413 yourselves in troopsH1413, daughterH1323 of troopsH1416; 2They have laidH7760 siegeH4692 againstH5921 us; With a rodH7626 they will 3smiteH5221 the judgeH8199 of IsraelH3478 on the cheekH3895.24But as for 5you, BethlehemH1035 EphrathahH672, Too littleH6810 to be among the clansH505 of JudahH3063, From 6you One will goH3318 forthH3318 for Me to be 7rulerH4910 in IsraelH3478. 8His goingsH4163 forthH4163 are 9from longH6924 agoH6924, From the daysH3117 of eternityH5769.”3ThereforeH3651 He will 10giveH5414 them up untilH5704 the timeH6256 When she 11who is in laborH3205 has borneH3205 a child. Then the 12remainderH3499 of His brethrenH251 Will returnH7725 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.4And He will ariseH5975 and 13shepherdH7462 His flock In the strengthH5797 of the LordH3068, In the majestyH1347 of the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 His GodH430. And they will 14remainH3427, BecauseH3588 15at that timeH6258 He will be greatH1431 To the 16endsH657 of the earthH776.5ThisH2088 OneH2088 17will be our peaceH7965. WhenH3588 the 18AssyrianH804 invadesH935 our landH776, WhenH3588 he tramplesH1869 on our 19citadelsH759, Then we will raiseH6965 againstH5921 him SevenH7651 shepherdsH7462 and eightH8083 leadersH5257 of menH120.
