TOJB2011 ▾MichohMichoh 51But thou, Beit-Lechem Ephratah, though thou be little among the Alphei Yehudah (Thousands of Yehudah) , yet out of thee shall He come forth unto Me that is to be Moshel Yisroel; whose goings forth have been mikedem (from everlasting) , mimei olam (from the days of eternity) .2Therefore will He give them up, until the Et Yoledah (time when she who is in labor) hath brought forth; then the rest of His Brethren shall return unto Bnei Yisroel.3And He shall stand and shall shepherd in the strength of Hashem , in the majesty of the Shem of Hashem Elohav, and they shall live; for then shall He be great unto the ends of ha'aretz.4And this shall be Shalom. When the Assyrian shall invade our land; and when he shall set foot on our armenot (citadels) , then shall we raise against him shivah ro'im (seven shepherds) , and shmoneh nesikhei adam (eight leaders [tribal princes] of men) .5And they shall shepherd Eretz Ashur (Assyria) with the cherev, and Eretz Nimrod at its gates; thus shall He deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he sets foot within our borders.6And the She'erit Ya'akov shall be in the midst of many people like tal (dew) from Hashem , like the showers upon the grass, that doth not await manʼs bidding, nor tarry for the bnei adam.7And the She'erit Ya'akov shall be among the Goyim in the midst of many people like an aryeh among the beasts of the forest, like a young lion among the edrei tzon (flocks of sheep) ; who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.8Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and kol oyvecha (all thine enemies) shall be cut off.9And it shall come to pass in Yom HaHu, saith Hashem , that I will cut off thy susim out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy merkavot (chariots) ;10And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy mivtzarim (fortresses) ;11And I will cut off keshafim (witchcrafts) out of thine hand; n tsvishen dir, un vest zich mer nisht b and thou shalt have no more sorcerers;12Thy graven images also will I cut off, and thy sacred pillars out of the midst of thee; and lo tishtachaveh (thou shalt no more bow down to, worship) the work of thine hands.13And I will pluck up thy Asherim out of the midst of thee; so will I destroy thy cities.14And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the Goyim that were without mishma'at (obedience) .Michoh 4Michoh 6
