Micah 5:1-2

The Voice

5 Eternal One: Now, muster your troops O daughter.^[a] You have been besieged,
        and they will strike the judge of Israel on the cheek with a rod.

²     But you, Bethlehem of Ephrathah,
        of the clans of Judah, are no poor relation—
    From your people will come a Ruler
        who will be the shepherd of My people, Israel,^[b]
    Whose origins date back to the distant past,
        to the ancient days.
