Micah 5:6-8

Lexham English Bible

⁶ And they will shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword,
    and the land of Nimrod at its entrances.
And he will rescue us from the Assyrian^[a]
    when he comes into our land,
    and when they tread upon our border.

⁷ And the remnant of Jacob will be
    in the midst of many nations,
like dew from Yahweh,
    like showers upon the grass
which does not wait for a man,
    nor delays for the children of humankind.
⁸ And the remnant of Jacob will be among the nations,
    in the midst of many peoples,
like a lion among the wild animals of the forest,
    like a young lion among the herds of sheep
which, when it passes through and treads down
    and tears in pieces, there is none who can deliver.
