Micah 5
1 Nowe assemble thy garisons, O daughter of garisons: he hath layed siege against vs: they shall smite the iudge of Israel with a rod vpon the cheeke.
Nunc vastaberis filia latronis: obsidionem posuerunt super nos, in virga percutient maxillam iudicis Israel.
2 And thou Beth-leem Ephrathah art litle to bee among the thousandes of Iudah, yet out of thee shall he come forth vnto me, that shalbe the ruler in Israel: whose goings forth haue bene from the beginning and from euerlasting.
ET TU BETHLEHEM Ephrata parvulus es in millibus Iuda: ex te mihi egredietur qui sit dominator in Israel, et egressus eius ab initio, a diebus æternitatis.
3 Therefore will he giue them vp, vntill the time that shee which shall beare, shall trauaile: then the remnant of their brethren shall returne vnto the children of Israel.
Propter hoc dabit eos usque ad tempus, in quo parturiens pariet: et reliquiæ fratrum eius convertentur ad filios Israel.
4 And he shall stand, and feed in the strength of the Lord, and in the maiestie of the Name of the Lord his God, and they shall dwel still: for now shall he be magnified vnto the ends of the world.
Et stabit, et pascet in fortitudine Domini, in sublimitate nominis Domini Dei sui: et convertentur, quia nunc magnificabitur usque ad terminos terræ.
5 And hee shall be our peace when Asshur shall come into our lande: when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seuen shepheardes, and eight principall men.
Et erit iste pax: cum venerit Assyrius in terram nostram, et quando calcaverit domibus nostris: et suscitabimus super eum septem pastores, et octo primates homines:
6 And they shall destroy Asshur with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with their swordes: thus shall he deliuer vs from Asshur, when hee commeth into our lande, and when he shall tread within our borders.
Et pascent terram Assur in gladio, et terram Nemrod in lanceis eius: et liberabit ab Assur cum venerit in terram nostram, et cum calcaverit in finibus nostris.
7 And the remnant of Iaakob shalbe among many people, as a dewe from the Lord, and as the showres vpon the grasse, that waiteth not for man, nor hopeth in the sonnes of Adam.
Et erunt reliquiæ Iacob in medio populorum multorum quasi ros a Domino, et quasi stillæ super herbam, quæ non exspectat virum, et non præstolatur filios hominum.
8 And the remnant of Iaakob shalbe among the Gentiles in the middes of many people, as the lyon among the beastes of the forest, and as the lyons whelpe among the flockes of sheepe, who when he goeth thorow, treadeth downe and teareth in pieces, and none can deliuer.
Et erunt reliquiæ Iacob in Gentibus in medio populorum multorum, quasi leo in iumentis silvarum, et quasi catulus leonis in gregibus pecorum: qui cum transierit, et conculcaverit, et ceperit, non est qui eruat.
9 Thine hand shall bee lift vp vpon thine aduersaries, and all thine enemies shalbe cut off.
Exaltabitur manus tua super hostes tuos, et omnes inimici tui interibunt.
10 And it shall come to passe in that day, sayth the Lord, that I will cut off thine horses out of the middes of thee, and I will destroy thy charets.
Et erit in die illa, dicit Dominus: Auferam equos tuos de medio tui, et disperdam quadrigas tuas.
11 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and ouerthrowe all thy strong holdes.
Et perdam civitates terræ tuæ, et destruam omnes munitiones tuas,
12 And I will cut off thine enchanters out of thine hande: and thou shalt haue no more southsayers.
et auferam maleficia de manu tua, et divinationes non erunt in te.
13 Thine idoles also will I cut off, and thine images out of the middes of thee: and thou shalt no more worship the woorke of thine hands.
Et perire faciam sculptilia tua, et statuas tuas de medio tui: et non adorabis ultra opera manuum tuarum.
14 And I wil plucke vp thy groues out of the middes of thee: so will I destroy thine enemies.
Et evellam lucos tuos de medio tui: et conteram civitates tuas.
15 And I will execute a vegeance in my wrath and indignation vpon the heathen, which they haue not heard.
Et faciam in furore et in indignatione ultionem in omnibus gentibus, quæ non audierunt.
