Micah 7:4-20

7:4

The best
<02896>

of them [is] as a brier
<02312>_:

the most upright
<03477>

[is sharper] than a thorn hedge
<04534>_:

the day
<03117>

of thy watchmen
<06822> (8764)

[and] thy visitation
<06486>

cometh
<0935> (8804)_;

now shall be their perplexity
<03998>_.

7:5

Trust
<0539> (8686)

ye not in a friend
<07453>_,

put ye not confidence
<0982> (8799)

in a guide
<0441>_:

keep
<08104> (8798)

the doors
<06607>

of thy mouth
<06310>

from her that lieth
<07901> (8802)

in thy bosom
<02436>_.

7:6

For the son
<01121>

dishonoureth
<05034> (8764)

the father
<01>_,

the daughter
<01323>

riseth up
<06965> (8801)

against her mother
<0517>_,

the daughter in law
<03618>

against her mother in law
<02545>_;

a man's
<0376>

enemies
<0341> (8802)

[are] the men
<0582>

of his own house
<01004>_.

7:7

Therefore I will look
<06822> (8762)

unto the LORD
<03068>_;

I will wait
<03176> (8686)

for the God
<0430>

of my salvation
<03468>_:

my God
<0430>

will hear
<08085> (8799)

me.

7:8

Rejoice
<08055> (8799)

not against me, O mine enemy
<0341> (8802)_:

when I fall
<05307> (8804)_,

I shall arise
<06965> (8804)_;

when I sit
<03427> (8799)

in darkness
<02822>_,

the LORD
<03068>

[shall be] a light
<0216>

unto me.

7:9

I will bear
<05375> (8799)

the indignation
<02197>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

because I have sinned
<02398> (8804)

against him, until he plead
<07378> (8799)

my cause
<07379>_,

and execute
<06213> (8804)

judgment
<04941>

for me: he will bring me forth
<03318> (8686)

to the light
<0216>_,

[and] I shall behold
<07200> (8799)

his righteousness
<06666>_.

7:10

Then [she that is] mine enemy
<0341> (8802)

shall see
<07200> (8799)

[it], and shame
<0955>

shall cover
<03680> (8762)

her which said
<0559> (8802)

unto me, Where is the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_?

mine eyes
<05869>

shall behold
<07200> (8799)

her: now shall she be trodden down
<04823>

as the mire
<02916>

of the streets
<02351>_.

{Then...: or, And thou wilt see her that is mine enemy, and cover her with shame} {shall she...: Heb. she shall be for a treading down}

7:11

[In] the day
<03117>

that thy walls
<01447>

are to be built
<01129> (8800)_,

[in] that day
<03117>

shall the decree
<02706>

be far removed
<07368> (8799)_.

7:12

[In] that day
<03117>

[also] he shall come
<0935> (8799)

even to thee from Assyria
<0804>_,

and [from] the fortified
<04693>

cities
<05892>_,

and from the fortress
<04693>

even to the river
<05104>_,

and from sea
<03220>

to sea
<03220>_,

and [from] mountain
<02022>

to mountain
<02022>_.

{and [from] the fortified cities: or, even to the fortified cities}

7:13

Notwithstanding the land
<0776>

shall be desolate
<08077>

because of them that dwell
<03427> (8802)

therein, for the fruit
<06529>

of their doings
<04611>_.

{Notwithstanding: or, After that it hath been}

7:14

Feed
<07462> (8798)

thy people
<05971>

with thy rod
<07626>_,

the flock
<06629>

of thine heritage
<05159>_,

which dwell
<07931> (8802)

solitarily
<0910>

[in] the wood
<03293>_,

in the midst
<08432>

of Carmel
<03760>_:

let them feed
<07462> (8799)

[in] Bashan
<01316>

and Gilead
<01568>_,

as in the days
<03117>

of old
<05769>_.

{Feed: or, Rule}

7:15

According to the days
<03117>

of thy coming
<03318> (8800)

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

will I shew
<07200> (8686)

unto him marvellous
<06381> (8737)

[things].

7:16

The nations
<01471>

shall see
<07200> (8799)

and be confounded
<0954> (8799)

at all their might
<01369>_:

they shall lay
<07760> (8799)

[their] hand
<03027>

upon [their] mouth
<06310>_,

their ears
<0241>

shall be deaf
<02790> (8799)_.

7:17

They shall lick
<03897> (8762)

the dust
<06083>

like a serpent
<05175>_,

they shall move
<07264> (8799)

out of their holes
<04526>

like worms
<02119> (8801)

of the earth
<0776>_:

they shall be afraid
<06342> (8799)

of the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

and shall fear
<03372> (8799)

because of thee. {worms: or, creeping things}

7:18

Who [is] a God
<0410>

like unto thee, that pardoneth
<05375> (8802)

iniquity
<05771>_,

and passeth by
<05674> (8802)

the transgression
<06588>

of the remnant
<07611>

of his heritage
<05159>_?

he retaineth
<02388> (8689)

not his anger
<0639>

for ever
<05703>_,

because he delighteth
<02654> (8804)

[in] mercy
<02617>_.

7:19

He will turn again
<07725> (8799)_,

he will have compassion
<07355> (8762)

upon us; he will subdue
<03533> (8799)

our iniquities
<05771>_;

and thou wilt cast
<07993> (8686)

all their sins
<02403>

into the depths
<04688>

of the sea
<03220>_.

7:20

Thou wilt perform
<05414> (8799)

the truth
<0571>

to Jacob
<03290>_,

[and] the mercy
<02617>

to Abraham
<085>_,

which thou hast sworn
<07650> (8738)

unto our fathers
<01>

from the days
<03117>

of old
<06924>_.
