Micah 5:3-5
Good News Translation

3 So the Lord will abandon his people to their enemies until the woman who is to give birth has her son. Then those Israelites who are in exile will be reunited with their own people. 4 When he comes, he will rule his people with the strength that comes from the Lord and with the majesty of the Lord God himself. His people will live in safety because people all over the earth will acknowledge his greatness, 5 and he will bring peace.

Deliverance and Punishment

When the Assyrians invade our country and break through our defenses, we will send our strongest leaders to fight them.

Micah 5:3-5
New International Version

3 Therefore Israel will be abandoned(A)
    until the time when she who is in labor bears a son,
and the rest of his brothers return
    to join the Israelites.

4 He will stand and shepherd his flock(B)
    in the strength of the Lord,
    in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they will live securely, for then his greatness(C)
    will reach to the ends of the earth.

5 And he will be our peace(D)
    when the Assyrians invade(E) our land
    and march through our fortresses.
We will raise against them seven shepherds,
    even eight commanders,(F)
