New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Micah 5:6-8
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
6 They shall rule the land of Assyria with the sword,
and the land of Nimrod with the drawn sword;[a]
they[b] shall rescue us from the Assyrians
if they come into our land
or tread within our border.
The Future Role of the Remnant
7 Then the remnant of Jacob,
surrounded by many peoples,
shall be like dew from the Lord,
like showers on the grass,
which do not depend upon people
or wait for any mortal.
8 And among the nations the remnant of Jacob,
surrounded by many peoples,
shall be like a lion among the animals of the forest,
like a young lion among the flocks of sheep,
which, when it goes through, treads down
and tears in pieces, with no one to deliver.

and no one can rescue.(I)
