Micha Propheta 5
1 Nunc vastaberis filia latronis: obsidionem posuerunt super nos, in virga percutient maxillam iudicis Israel.
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.
2 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 aeternitatis.
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.
3 Propter hoc dabit eos usque ad tempus, in quo parturiens pariet: et reliquiae fratrum eius convertentur ad filios Israel.
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.
4 Et stabit, et pascet in fortitudine Domini, in sublimitate nominis Domini Dei sui: et convertentur, quia nunc magnificabitur usque ad terminos terrae.
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.
5 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:
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.
6 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.
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.
7 Et erunt reliquiae Iacob in medio populorum multorum quasi ros a Domino, et quasi stillae super herbam, quae non expectat virum, et non praestolatur filios hominum.
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.
8 Et erunt reliquiae 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.
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.
9 Et exaltabitur manus tua super hostes tuos, et omnes inimici tui interibunt.
your hand shall be lifted up upon your adversaries, and all of your enemies shall be cut off.
10 Et erit in die illa, dicit Dominus: Auferam equos tuos de medio tui, et disperdam quadrigas tuas.
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:
11 Et perdam civitates terrae tuae, et destruam omnes munitiones tuas,
And I will cut off the cities of your land, and throw down all your strong holds:
12 et auferam maleficia de manu tua, et divinationes non erunt in te.
And I will cut off witchcrafts out of your hand; and you shall have no more soothsayers:
13 Et perire faciam sculptilia tua, et statuas tuas de medio tui: et non adorabis ultra opera manuum tuarum.
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.
14 Et evellam lucos tuos de medio tui: et conteram civitates tuas.
And I will pluck up your groves out of the midst of you: so will I destroy your cities.
15 Et faciam in furore et in indignatione ultionem in omnibus gentibus, quae non audierunt.
And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard.
