New Living Translation

New American Standard Bible

  • aMobilize! Marshal your troops!
    The enemy is laying siege to Jerusalem.
    They will strike Israel’s leader
    in the face with a rod.
    A Ruler from Bethlehem
  • Birth of the King in Bethlehem

    “Now muster yourselves in troops, daughter of troops;
    They have laid siege against us;
    With a rod they will smite the judge of Israel on the cheek.
  • bBut you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah,
    are only a small village among all the people of Judah.
    Yet a ruler of Israel,
    whose origins are in the distant past,
    will come from you on my behalf.
  • “But as for you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
    Too little to be among the clans of Judah,
    From you One will go forth for Me to be ruler in Israel.
    His goings forth are from long ago,
    From the days of eternity.”
  • The people of Israel will be abandoned to their enemies
    until the woman in labor gives birth.
    Then at last his fellow countrymen
    will return from exile to their own land.
  • Therefore He will give them up until the time
    When she who is in labor has borne a child.
    Then the remainder of His brethren
    Will return to the sons of Israel.
  • And he will stand to lead his flock with the LORD’s strength,
    in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God.

    for he will be highly honored around the world.
  • And He will arise and shepherd His flock
    In the strength of the LORD,
    In the majesty of the name of the LORD His God.
    And they will remain,
    Because at that time He will be great
    To the ends of the earth.
  • And he will be the source of peace.
    When the Assyrians invade our land
    and break through our defenses,
    we will appoint seven rulers to watch over us,
    eight princes to lead us.
  • This One will be our peace.
    When the Assyrian invades our land,
    When he tramples on our citadels,
    Then we will raise against him
    Seven shepherds and eight leaders of men.
  • They will rule Assyria with drawn swords
    and enter the gates of the land of Nimrod.
    He will rescue us from the Assyrians
    when they pour over the borders to invade our land.
    The Remnant Purified
  • They will shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword,
    The land of Nimrod at its entrances;
    And He will deliver us from the Assyrian
    When he attacks our land
    And when he tramples our territory.
  • Then the remnant left in Israelc
    will take their place among the nations.
    They will be like dew sent by the LORD
    or like rain falling on the grass,
    which no one can hold back
    and no one can restrain.
  • Then the remnant of Jacob
    Will be among many peoples
    Like dew from the LORD,
    Like showers on vegetation
    Which do not wait for man
    Or delay for the sons of men.
  • The remnant left in Israel
    will take their place among the nations.
    They will be like a lion among the animals of the forest,
    like a strong young lion among flocks of sheep and goats,
    pouncing and tearing as they go
    with no rescuer in sight.
  • The remnant of Jacob
    Will be among the nations,
    Among many peoples
    Like a lion among the beasts of the forest,
    Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
    Which, if he passes through,
    Tramples down and tears,
    And there is none to rescue.
  • The people of Israel will stand up to their foes,
    and all their enemies will be wiped out.
  • Your hand will be lifted up against your adversaries,
    And all your enemies will be cut off.
  • “In that day,” says the LORD,
    “I will slaughter your horses
    and destroy your chariots.
  • “It will be in that day,” declares the LORD,
    “That I will cut off your horses from among you
    And destroy your chariots.

    and demolish your defenses.
  • “I will also cut off the cities of your land
    And tear down all your fortifications.

    so you will never again worship the work of your own hands.

    And your sacred pillars from among you,
    So that you will no longer bow down
    To the work of your hands.

    and destroy your pagan cities.

    And destroy your cities.

    on all the nations that refuse to obey me.”

    On the nations which have not obeyed.”
