Micah 5:2-5a
From you shall come forth one who is to be ruler in Israel.
A reading from the Book of the Prophet Micah
Thus says the LORD: You, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are little to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose origin is from of old, from ancient days. Therefore he shall give them up until the time when she who has labour pains has brought forth; then the rest of his brethren shall return to the sons of Israel. And he shall stand and feed his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God. And they shall dwell secure, for now he shall be great to the ends of the earth. And this shall be peace.
V/ The word of the Lord.
R/ Thanks be to God.
