Micah 5:6

וְהָיָ֣ה ׀ שְׁאֵרִ֣ית יַעֲקֹ֗ב בְּקֶ֙רֶב֙ עַמִּ֣ים רַבִּ֔ים כְּטַל֙ מֵאֵ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה כִּרְבִיבִ֖ים עֲלֵי־עֵ֑שֶׂב אֲשֶׁ֤ר לֹֽא־יְקַוֶּה֙ לְאִ֔ישׁ וְלֹ֥א יְיַחֵ֖ל לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃
vhayah shʾeriyt yaʿaqob bqereb ʿamiym rabiym kṭal meʾet yhvah kirbiybiym ʿaley-ʿesheb ʾasher loʾ-yqaveh lʾiysh vloʾ yyaḥel libney ʾadam
King James Version (KJV)

And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof: thus shall he deliver {us} from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our borders. {waste: Heb. eat up} {in the...: or, with her own naked swords}

Modern English

They will rule the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in its gates. He will deliver us from the Assyrian, when he invades our land, and when he marches within our border.
