O ye children of Benjamin, gather yourselves to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a sign of fire in Bethhaccerem: for evil appeareth out of the north, and great destruction.

The shepherds with their flocks shall come unto her; they shall pitch their tents against her round about; they shall feed every one in his place.
