Bethlehem, non es minima in principibus Juda:
ex te enim exiet dux
qui regat populum meum Israel;
ipse enim salvum faciet populum suum
a peccatis eorum.

Bethlehem, you are not the least among the princes of Judah;
for from you shall come forth a ruler
who will govern my people Israel;
for he himself will save his people
from their sins.
