| Revised Standard Version | << Micah:5 >> | Biblia Hebraica (Stuttgartensia) | |
| 1 | Now you are walled about with a wall; seige is laid against us; with a rod they strike upon the cheek the ruler of Israel. | וְאַתָּה בֵּית־לֶחֶם אֶפְרָתָה צָעִיר לִהְיֹות בְּאַלְפֵי יְהוּדָה מִמְּךָ לִי יֵצֵא לִהְיֹות מֹושֵׁל בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל וּמֹוצָאֹתָיו מִקֶּדֶם מִימֵי עֹולָם׃ | |
| 2 | But you, O Bethlehem Eph'rathah, who are little to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose origin is from of old, from ancient days. | God promises a ruler from Bethlehem. Mic.5.2-4 | לָכֵן יִתְּנֵם עַד־עֵת יֹולֵדָה יָלָדָה וְיֶתֶר אֶחָיו יְשׁוּבוּן עַל־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ |
| 3 | Therefore he shall give them up until the time when she who is in travail has brought forth; then the rest of his brethren shall return to the people of Israel. | וְעָמַד וְרָעָה בְּעֹז יְהוָה בִּגְאֹון שֵׁם יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו וְיָשָׁבוּ כִּי־עַתָּה יִגְדַּל עַד־אַפְסֵי־אָרֶץ׃ | |
| 4 | And he shall stand and feed his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God. And they shall dwell secure, for now he shall be great to the ends of the earth. | וְהָיָה זֶה שָׁלֹום אַשּׁוּר כִּי־יָבֹוא בְאַרְצֵנוּ וְכִי יִדְרֹךְ בְּאַרְמְנֹתֵינוּ וַהֲקֵמֹנוּ עָלָיו שִׁבְעָה רֹעִים וּשְׁמֹנָה נְסִיכֵי אָדָם׃ | |
| 5 | And this shall be peace, when the Assyrian comes into our land and treads upon our soil, that we will raise against him seven shepherds and eight princes of men; | Deliverance & punishment. Mic.5.5-15 | וְרָעוּ אֶת־אֶרֶץ אַשּׁוּר בַּחֶרֶב וְאֶת־אֶרֶץ נִמְרֹד בִּפְתָחֶיהָ וְהִצִּיל מֵאַשּׁוּר כִּי־יָבֹוא בְאַרְצֵנוּ וְכִי יִדְרֹךְ בִּגְבוּלֵנוּ׃ ס |
| 6 | they shall rule the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the drawn sword; and they shall deliver us from the Assyrian when he comes into our land and treads within our border. | וְהָיָה שְׁאֵרִית יַעֲקֹב בְּקֶרֶב עַמִּים רַבִּים כְּטַל מֵאֵת יְהוָה כִּרְבִיבִים עֲלֵי־עֵשֶׂב אֲשֶׁר לֹא־יְקַוֶּה לְאִישׁ וְלֹא יְיַחֵל לִבְנֵי אָדָם׃ | |
| 7 | Then the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many peoples like dew from the LORD, like showers upon the grass, which tarry not for men nor wait for the sons of men. | וְהָיָה שְׁאֵרִית יַעֲקֹב בַּגֹּויִם בְּקֶרֶב עַמִּים רַבִּים כְּאַרְיֵה בְּבַהֲמֹות יַעַר כִּכְפִיר בְּעֶדְרֵי־צֹאן אֲשֶׁר אִם עָבַר וְרָמַס וְטָרַף וְאֵין מַצִּיל׃ | |
| 8 | And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, like a lion among the beasts of the forest, like a young lion among the flocks of sheep, which, when it goes through, treads down and tears in pieces, and there is none to deliver. | תָּרֹם יָדְךָ עַל־צָרֶיךָ וְכָל־אֹיְבֶיךָ יִכָּרֵתוּ׃ ף | |
| 9 | Your hand shall be lifted up over your adversaries, and all your enemies shall be cut off. | וְהָיָה בַיֹּום־הַהוּא נְאֻם־יְהוָה וְהִכְרַתִּי סוּסֶיךָ מִקִּרְבֶּךָ וְהַאֲבַדְתִּי מַרְכְּבֹתֶיךָ׃ | |
| 10 | And in that day, says the LORD, I will cut off your horses from among you and will destroy your chariots; | וְהִכְרַתִּי עָרֵי אַרְצֶךָ וְהָרַסְתִּי כָּל־מִבְצָרֶיךָ׃ | |
| 11 | and I will cut off the cities of your land and throw down all your strongholds; | וְהִכְרַתִּי כְשָׁפִים מִיָּדֶךָ וּמְעֹונְנִים לֹא יִהְיוּ־לָךְ׃ | |
| 12 | and I will cut off sorceries from your hand, and you shall have no more soothsayers; | וְהִכְרַתִּי פְסִילֶיךָ וּמַצֵּבֹותֶיךָ מִקִּרְבֶּךָ וְלֹא־תִשְׁתַּחֲוֶה עֹוד לְמַעֲשֵׂה יָדֶיךָ׃ | |
| 13 | and I will cut off your images and your pillars from among you, and you shall bow down no more to the work of your hands; | וְנָתַשְׁתִּי אֲשֵׁירֶיךָ מִקִּרְבֶּךָ וְהִשְׁמַדְתִּי עָרֶיךָ׃ | |
| 14 | and I will root out your Ashe'rim from among you and destroy your cities. | וְעָשִׂיתִי בְּאַף וּבְחֵמָה נָקָם אֶת־הַגֹּויִם אֲשֶׁר לֹא שָׁמֵעוּ׃ ס | |
| 15 | And in anger and wrath I will execute vengeance upon the nations that did not obey. | ||
