Miquéias 5:7-9

7 E o resto de Jacó estará no meio de muitos povos, como orvalho da parte do Senhor, como chuvisco sobre a erva, que não espera pelo homem, nem aguarda filpios de homens.

8 Tambem o resto de Jacó estará entre as nações, no meio de muitos povos, como um leão entre os animais do bosque, como um leão novo entre os rebanhos de ovelhas, o qual, quando passar, as pisará e despedaçará, sem que haja quem as livre.

9 A tua mão será exaltada sobre os teus adversários e serão exterminados todos os seus inimigos.
