from ancient days.

from ancient times.

are only a small village among all the people of Judah.

Yet a ruler of Israel

whose origins are in the distant past,

will come from you on my behalf.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

from you one will go out for me,

to be ruler in Israel;

and his origins are from of old,

from ancient days.

But thou, Beth-lehem Ephratah,

Though thou be little among the thousands of Judah,

Yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel;

Whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
