King James Version
Now gather thyself together
, O daughter of troops ,
A
siege
he hath laid against us ,
With
a
rod
they smite on
the cheek
the
judge of Israel.
Now gather thyself in
troops
, O daughter of troops :
he hath laid siege
against us :
they shall
smite the judge of Israel with
a
rod
upon
the
cheek
.
And
thou, Beth-Lehem
Ephratah, Little
to
be among the chiefs
of Judah !
From
thee to
Me
he cometh
forth --
to be ruler in Israel ,
And
his
comings
forth `are'
of old, From the
days
of
antiquity
.
But
thou, Bethlehem
Ephratah, though
thou
be little
among the thousands
of Judah ,
yet
out
of
thee shall
he come
forth unto
me
that
is
to be ruler in Israel ;
whose
goings
forth have
been
from
of old, from everlasting
.
Therefore he doth
give them out
till
the time She who
bringeth
forth
hath brought forth ,
And
the remnant of his brethren return to
the sons
of Israel.
Therefore will
he give them up,
until
the time that
she which
travaileth
hath brought forth :
then
the remnant of his brethren shall
return unto
the children
of Israel.
And he hath
stood
and delighted
in the strength of Jehovah
, In the excellency
of the name of Jehovah
his God ,
And they have
remained,
For now he is
great unto the ends of earth.
And he shall
stand
and feed
in the strength of the
LORD
, in the majesty
of the name of the
LORD
his God ;
and they shall
abide:
for now shall
he be
great unto the ends of the
earth.
And this `one'
hath
been
peace, Asshur!
when he
doth
come into our land ,
And when he doth
tread in our palaces, We have
raised
against him seven shepherds, And eight anointed
of
man
.
And this man
shall
be
the
peace, when the
Assyrian
shall
come into our land :
and when he shall
tread in our palaces, then
shall
we raise
against him seven shepherds, and eight principal
men
.
And they have
afflicted
the land of Asshur
with the sword, And the land of Nimrod at
its
openings,
And
he hath
delivered
from Asshur
when he doth
come
into our land, And when he treadeth in
our borders.
And they shall
waste
the land of Assyria
with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in
the
entrances
thereof:
thus
shall
he deliver
us
from the
Assyrian,
when he cometh
into our land, and when he treadeth within
our borders.
And the remnant of Jacob hath
been
in the midst of many peoples,
As dew from Jehovah
--
as showers on
the herb
, That waiteth
not for man, nor stayeth
for the sons of men.
And the remnant of Jacob shall
be
in the midst of many people
as a
dew from the
LORD,
as the
showers upon
the grass
, that tarrieth
not for man, nor waiteth
for the sons of men.
Yea,
the remnant of Jacob hath
been
among nations,
In the midst of many peoples,
As a lion among beasts of a
forest, As a young lion among ranks
of a
flock
, Which
if it
hath
passed
through, Hath
both trodden
down and hath
torn
, And there
is
no
deliverer
.
And
the remnant of Jacob shall
be
among the
Gentiles
in the midst of many people
as a lion among the
beasts of the
forest, as a young lion among the
flocks
of sheep:
who
, if he
go
through, both treadeth
down ,
and teareth
in
pieces
, and none
can
deliver
.

thy
hand above
thine adversaries, And all thine enemies are
cut off.

clouds
thou hast
none.

off
thy graven images, And thy standing -pillars
out of thy
midst ,
And thou dost
not
bow
thyself
any
more To
the work of thy
hands.
Thy graven images also
will
I
cut
off
, and thy standing images
out of the
midst of
thee;
and thou shalt
no
more worship
the work of thine
hands.
And I have
plucked
up thy shrines
out of thy
midst ,
And
I have
destroyed
thine
enemies
.

pluck
up thy groves
out of the
midst of
thee:
so

thy
cities

the heathen,
such

they
have not heard.
