"^(F1)Now muster yourselves in troops, daughter of troops; ^(F2)They have laid siege against us; With a rod they will ^(C1)strike the judge of Israel on the cheek.

-"^(F1)But as for ^(C1)you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, Too little to be among the clans of Judah, From ^(C2)you One will come forth for Me to be ^(C3)ruler in Israel. His times of coming forth are ^(C4)from long ago, From the days of eternity."

Therefore He will ^(C1)give them up until the time When she ^(C2)who is in labor has given birth. Then the ^(C3)remainder of His kinsmen Will return to the sons of Israel.

And He will arise and ^(C1)shepherd His flock In the strength of the LORD, In the majesty of the name of the LORD His God. And they will ^(F1)remain, Because ^(F2)at that time He will be great To the ^(C2)ends of the earth.

This One ^(C1)will be our peace. When the ^(C2)Assyrian invades our land, When he tramples on our ^(F1)citadels, Then we will raise against him Seven shepherds and eight leaders of people.
