Micah 5
1 Now gather yourself in troops, O daughter of troops: he has laid siege against us: they shall strike the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.
Nunc vastaberis filia latronis: obsidionem posuerunt super nos, in virga percutient maxillam iudicis Israel.
2 But you, Bethlehem Ephratah, though you be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall he comes forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose activities forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
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 give them up, until the time that she which labors has brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto 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, 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.
Et stabit, et pascet in fortitudine Domini, in sublimitate nominis Domini Dei sui: et convertentur, quia nunc magnificabitur usque ad terminos terræ.
5 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.
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 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 comes into our land, and when he treads 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 Jacob shall be in the midst of many people as a dew from the LORD, as the showers upon the grass, that tarries not for man, nor waits for the sons of men.
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 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 treads down, and tears in pieces, and none can deliver.
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 your hand shall be lifted up upon your adversaries, and all of your enemies shall be cut off.
Exaltabitur manus tua super hostes tuos, et omnes inimici tui interibunt.
10 And it shall come to pass in that day, says the LORD, that I will cut off your horses out of the midst of you, and I will destroy your chariots:
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 your land, and throw down all your strong holds:
Et perdam civitates terræ tuæ, et destruam omnes munitiones tuas,
12 And I will cut off witchcrafts out of your hand; and you shall have no more soothsayers:
et auferam maleficia de manu tua, et divinationes non erunt in te.
13 Your graven images also will I cut off, and your standing images out of the midst of you; and you shall no more worship the work of your hands.
Et perire faciam sculptilia tua, et statuas tuas de medio tui: et non adorabis ultra opera manuum tuarum.
14 And I will pluck up your groves out of the midst of you: so will I destroy your cities.
Et evellam lucos tuos de medio tui: et conteram civitates tuas.
15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard.
Et faciam in furore et in indignatione ultionem in omnibus gentibus, quæ non audierunt.
