Miqueas 5:7-9

El remanente

7 Será el remanente de Jacob,en medio de muchos pueblos,como rocío que viene del SEÑOR,como abundante lluvia sobre la hierba,que no depende de los hombres,ni espera nada de ellos.

8 Será el remanente de Jacob entre las naciones,en medio de muchos pueblos,como un león entre los animales del bosque,como un cachorro entre las ovejas del rebaño,que al pasar las pisotea y las desgarra,sin que nadie pueda rescatarlas.

9 Levantarás la mano contra tus enemigos,y acabarás con todos tus agresores.
