When she who is in labor has borne a child.
Then the remainder of His brethren
Will return to the sons of Israel.

In the strength of the Lord,
In the majesty of the name of the Lord His God.

When the Assyrian invades our land,
When he tramples on our citadels,
Then we will raise against him
Seven shepherds and eight leaders of men.
