Micah 5:5-7

GOD’S WORD Translation

When the Assyrians invade our land and trample our palaces,
we will attack them with seven shepherds and eight leaders.
⁶ They will rule Assyria with their swords
and the country of Nimrod with drawn swords.
They will rescue us from the Assyrians
when they come into our land
and walk within our territory.
⁷ Then the few people left from Jacob will be among many people
like dew from the Lord, like showers on the grass.
They do not put their hope in humans or wait for mortals.
