Micah 5:2-5

“Kepha wena Betlehema Efratha,
omncane ukuba ube phakathi kwemindeni yakwaJuda,
ngiyakuphunyelwa ngovela kuwe,
ozakuba ngumbusi kwa-Israyeli,
okuvela kwakhe kusukela endulo ezinsukwini zaphakade.”

Ngalokho bayakukhashelwa,
bese yibuyela insali yabafowabo kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Uyakuma, aluse ngamandla kaJehova nangokuphakama kwegama
likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe;
sebeyakuhlala,
ngokuba uzakuba mkhulu
kuze kube semajukujukwini omhlaba.
Ukuthula kuyakuba yilokhu:
lapho umAsiriya engena ezweni lakithi,
anyathele ezindlini zethu zobukhosi,
siyakumvusela abelusi abayisikhombisa
nezikhulu zabantu eziyisishiyagalombili.
