00001 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the

truth <00571 >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

sworn <07650 shaba<> (8738) unto our fathers <{00001} >ab> from

the days <03117 yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.

00001 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

bath> riseth up <06965 quwm> (8801) against her mother <00517

law <02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341

>oyeb> (8802) are the men <00582 >enowsh> of his own house

<01004 bayith>.

00006 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117

yowm>, saith <05002 n@>um> (8803) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, that

I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689) thy horses <05483 cuwc> out

of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee, and I will destroy <{00006}

00006 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)

out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?

is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <{00006} >abad>

(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq> (8689)

thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).

00006 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

<{00006} >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and

there is none upright <03477 yashar> among men <00120 >adam>:

they all lie in wait <00693 >arab> (8799) for blood <01818 dam>;

they hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his

brother <00251 >ach> with a net <02764 cherem>.

00060 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad>

(8799) stripped <07758 showlal> (8675) <07758 showlal> and naked

<06174 <arowm>: I will make <06213 <asah> (8799) a wailing

<04553 micepd> like the dragons <08577 tanniyn>, and mourning

<{00060} >ebel> as the owls <01323 bath> <03284 ya<anah>.

00068 Mic _ 06 _ 11 Shall I count them pure <02135 zakah> (8799)

with the wicked <07562 resha<> balances <03976 mo>zen>, and with

the bag <03599 kiyc> of deceitful <04820 mirmah> weights

<{00068} >eben>?

00068 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)

Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

<07704 sadeh>, and as plantings <04302 matta<> of a vineyard

stones <{00068} >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and

I will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <03247

00120 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

00120 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O

man <{00120} >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth

but to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to

love <00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212

00120 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of

many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from

the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the

grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not for

man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <03176 yachal> (8762) for the

sons <01121 ben> of men <{00120} >adam>.

00120 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965

sh@moneh> principal <05257 n@ciyk> men <{00120} >adam>.

00120 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)

assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of

(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;

 I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as

the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677) <01224

00136 Mic _ 01 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798), all ye people

00145 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people

<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341

<{00145} >eder> with <04136 muwl> the garment <08008 salmah>

from them that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983

00157 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <08130 sane>> (8802) the good

from off them, and their flesh <07607 sh@>er> from off their

bones <06106 <etsem>;

00160 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O

man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee, but

to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love

<{00160} >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212

yalak> (8800) humbly <06800 tsana<> (8687) with thy God <00430

00175 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)

out of the land <00776 >erets> of Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim>, and

redeemed <06299 padah> (8804) thee out of the house <01004

bayith> of servants <05650 <ebed>; and I sent <07971 shalach>

(8799) before <06440 paniym> thee Moses <04872 Mosheh>, Aaron

<{00175} >Aharown>, and Miriam <04813 Miryam>.

00183 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as

when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019

<01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to eat

<00398 >akal> (8800): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <{00183}

>avah> (8765) the firstripe fruit <01063 bikkuwrah>.

00199 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <{00199} >uwlam> I am full

<04390 male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit <07307

00205 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they

practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in

the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.

00214 Mic _ 06 _ 10 Are there <00786 >ish> yet the treasures

<{00214} >owtsar> of wickedness <07562 resha<> (8676) <00376

and the scant <07332 razown> measure <00374 >eyphah> that is

abominable <02194 za<am> (8803)?

00216 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,

 O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>

yashab> (8799) in darkness <02822 choshek>, the LORD <03068

Y@hovah> shall be a light <{00216} >owr> unto me.

00216 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <{00216} >owr>, they

practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in

the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.

00216 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the

indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because

I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead

<07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute <06213

<asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will bring me

forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <{00216} >owr>, and I

shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666

ts@daqah>.

00241 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200

ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <00954 buwsh> (8799) at all

their might <01369 g@buwrah>: they shall lay <07760 suwm> (8799)

their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears

<{00241} >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).

00251 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414

nathan> (8799), until the time <06256 <eth> that she which

travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>

(8804): then the remnant <03499 yether> of his brethren <{00251}

>ach> shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) unto the children <01121

ben> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.

00251 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

<00006 >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and there

hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his brother

<{00251} >ach> with a net <02764 cherem>.

00256 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri

<06018 <Omriy> are kept <08104 shamar> (8691), and all the works

>Ach>ab>, and ye walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in their counsels

<04156 mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> (8800) thee

a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>

(8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall

bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my

people <05971 <am>.

00271 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

00319 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <{00319} >achariyth> days

<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022

<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and people

<05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.

00341 Mic _ 05 _ 09 Thine hand <03027 yad> shall be lifted up

thine enemies <{00341} >oyeb> (8802) shall be cut off <03772

00341 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,

 O mine enemy <{00341} >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>

00341 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people

<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <{00341}

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men

00341 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

00341 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <{00341} >oyeb>

00341 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour

to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of

00376 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)

afraid <02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the

LORD <03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696

dabar> (8765) it.

00376 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields

<07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);

and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375 nasa>>

(8804): so they oppress <06231 <ashaq> (8804) a man <01397

geber> and his house <01004 bayith>, even a man <{00376} >iysh>

and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.

00376 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

<00006 >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and there

hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <{00376} >iysh> his brother

00376 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <{00376} >iysh>

controversy <07379 riyb> with his people <05971 <am>, and he

will plead <03198 yakach> (8691) with Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.

00391 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <05414 nathan>

00398 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as

when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019

<01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to eat

<{00398} >akal> (8800): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <00183

>avah> (8765) the firstripe fruit <01063 bikkuwrah>.

00398 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <{00398} >akal> (8799), but

thou shalt take hold <05253 nacag> (8686), but shalt not deliver

<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403

00410 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they

practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in

the power <{00410} >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.

00410 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <{00410} >el> like unto thee,

that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and

passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588 pesha<>

00430 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

00430 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there

is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <{00430} >elohiym>.

burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a

year <08141 shaneh> old <01121 ben>?

00430 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O

man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love

00430 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)

00480 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <{00480} >al@lay> is me! for I am as

00505 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

00505 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>

00517 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

riseth up <06965 quwm> (8801) against her mother <{00517} >em>,

the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her mother in law

<02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341 >oyeb>

00539 Mic _ 07 _ 05 Trust <{00539} >aman> (8686) ye not in a

lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <02436 cheyq>.

00559 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

<{00559} >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <02610 chaneph>

00559 Mic _ 06 _ 01 6 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye now what the

00559 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <{00559} >amar> (8799), Hear

<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the

house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for

you to know <03045 yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?

00559 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <{00559} >amar> (8803)

the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit

words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him that

walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?

00559 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <{00559} >amar> (8804)

the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940

haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil

<07451 ra<>.

00559 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955

<{00559} >amar> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068

Y@hovah> thy God <00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall

behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down

<04823 mirmac> as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <02351

00559 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <{00559} >amar> (8804) the LORD

<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make

my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite <05391

nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they even

prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <04421 milchamah> against him.

00559 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199

<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire <04242

m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine <07080

<08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and say

<{00559} >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among

<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935 bow>>

(8799) upon us.

00559 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up

lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>

lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <{00559} >amar> (8804), We be

utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he

hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of

my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)

it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided

<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.

00559 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <01471 gowy>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)

to the mountain <02022 har> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and to

his ways <01870 derek>, and we will walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in

his paths <00734 >orach>: for the law <08451 towrah> shall go

forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, and the

word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> from Jerusalem

<03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

00571 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the

truth <{00571} >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

sworn <07650 shaba<> (8738) unto our fathers <00001 >ab> from

the days <03117 yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.

00582 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her mother in law

<02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341 >oyeb>

00605 Mic _ 01 _ 09 For her wound <04347 makkah> is incurable

gate <08179 sha<ar> of my people <05971 <am>, even to Jerusalem

00622 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

upon Zion <06726 Tsiyown>.

00622 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002

00622 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <{00622} >acaph> (8800)

(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;

 I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as

the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677) <01224

00622 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)

assemble <{00622} >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all

00625 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as

00639 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <06213 <asah> (8804)

vengeance <05359 naqam> in anger <{00639} >aph> and fury <02534

heard <08085 shama<> (8804).

00639 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,

that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and

passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588 pesha<>

<02654 chaphets> (8804) in mercy <02617 checed>.

00657 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and

00693 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

00734 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <01471 gowy>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)

00738 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob

<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the

00894 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour

to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of

<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the

00935 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier

00935 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto

you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it

shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto

you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the sun

prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark

<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.

00935 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965

kingdom <04467 mamlakah> shall come <{00935} bow>> (8804) to the

daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

00935 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <07462 ra<ah> (8804)

the land <00776 >erets> of Assyria <00804 >Ashshuwr> with the

sword <02719 chereb>, and the land <00776 >erets> of Nimrod

<05248 Nimrowd> in the entrances <06607 pethach> thereof: thus

shall he deliver <05337 natsal> (8689) us from the Assyrian

land <00776 >erets>, and when he treadeth <01869 darak> (8799)

00935 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199

<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire <04242

m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine <07080

qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they lean

<08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and say

<00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among

<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <{00935} bow>>

00935 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour

00954 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <02374 chozeh> be

ashamed <{00954} buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <07080 qacam>

cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there

is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.

00954 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200

ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <{00954} buwsh> (8799) at all

their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears

<00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).

00955 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <{00955}

the doors <06607 pethach> of thy mouth <06310 peh> from her that

lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <02436 cheyq>.

00983 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people

<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <{00983} betach> as

men averse <07725 shuwb> (8803) from war <04421 milchamah>.

00990 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams

<00352 >ayil>, or with ten thousands <07233 r@babah> of rivers

<05158 nachal> of oil <08081 shemen>? shall I give <05414

nathan> (8799) my firstborn <01060 b@kowr> for my transgression

<06588 pesha<>, the fruit <06529 p@riy> of my body <{00990}

00995 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the

thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,

neither understand <{00995} biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098

<etsah>: for he shall gather <06908 qabats> (8765) them as the

sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.

01004 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <05414 nathan>

(8799) presents <07964 shilluwach> to Moreshethgath <04182

Mowresheth Gath>: the houses <{01004} bayith> of Achzib <00392

>Akziyb> shall be a lie <00391 >akzab> to the kings <04428

01004 Mic _ 06 _ 10 Are there <00786 >ish> yet the treasures

<00214 >owtsar> of wickedness <07562 resha<> (8676) <00376

that is abominable <02194 za<am> (8803)?

01004 Mic _ 02 _ 09 The women <00802 >ishshah> of my people

<05971 <am> have ye cast out <01644 garash> (8762) from their

children <05768 <owlel> have ye taken away <03947 laqach> (8799)

my glory <01926 hadar> for ever <05769 <owlam>.

01004 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear

you to know <03045 yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?

01004 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for

your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a

become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the

house <{01004} bayith> as the high places <01116 bamah> of the

forest <03293 ya<ar>.

01004 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields

<07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);

and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375 nasa>>

01004 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)

out of the land <00776 >erets> of Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim>, and

redeemed <06299 padah> (8804) thee out of the house <{01004}

01004 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)

not my words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him

01004 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403

01004 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days

01063 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as

when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019

01109 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142

B@<owr> answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851

01116 Mic _ 01 _ 03 For, behold, the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> cometh

forth <03318 yatsa>> (8802) out of his place <04725 maqowm>, and

01116 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for

your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a

field <07704 sadeh>, and Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim> shall

become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the

house <01004 bayith> as the high places <{01116} bamah> of the

01116 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403

chatta>ah> of the house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478

Yisra>el>. What is the transgression <06588 pesha<> of Jacob

<03290 Ya<aqob>? is it not Samaria <08111 Shom@rown>? and what

are the high places <{01116} bamah> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>?

are they not Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>?

01121 Mic _ 01 _ 16 Make thee bald <07139 qarach> (8798), and

burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a

year <08141 shaneh> old <{01121} ben>?

01121 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414

nathan> (8799), until the time <06256 <eth> that she which

travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>

01121 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of

01323 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour

01350 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour

01366 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <07462 ra<ah> (8804)

their ears <00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).

01369 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390

01389 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days

<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022

<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <{01389} gib<ah>; and

people <05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.

01397 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields

<07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);

and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375 nasa>>

(8804): so they oppress <06231 <ashaq> (8804) a man <{01397}

geber> and his house <01004 bayith>, even a man <00376 >iysh>

and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.

01413 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <{01413} gadad> (8704) thyself

01416 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <01413 gadad> (8704) thyself in

01419 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both

hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the prince

<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <08199

shaphat> (8802) asketh for a reward <07966 shilluwm>; and the

great <{01419} gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his

mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap

it up <05686 <abath> (8762).

01431 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and

feed <07462 ra<ah> (8804) in the strength <05797 <oz> of the

LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, in the majesty <01347 ga>own> of the name

<08034 shem> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> his God <00430

01447 Mic _ 07 _ 11 In the day <03117 yowm> that thy walls

<{01447} gader> are to be built <01129 banah> (8800), in that

day <03117 yowm> shall the decree <02706 choq> be far removed

<07368 rachaq> (8799).

01471 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <06213 <asah> (8804)

vengeance <05359 naqam> in anger <00639 >aph> and fury <02534

chemah> upon the heathen <{01471} gowy>, such as they have not

heard <08085 shama<> (8804).

01471 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <{01471}

gowy> are gathered <00622 >acaph> (8738) against thee, that say

<00559 >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <02610 chaneph> (8799),

and let our eye <05869 <ayin> look <02372 chazah> (8799) upon

Zion <06726 Tsiyown>.

01471 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <{01471} gowy> shall see <07200

ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <00954 buwsh> (8799) at all

their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears

<00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).

01471 Mic _ 04 _ 07 And I will make <07760 suwm> (8804) her that

halted <06760 tsala<> (8802) a remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth>, and

her that was cast far off <01972 hala>> (8737) a strong <06099

<atsuwm> nation <{01471} gowy>: and the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>

shall reign <04427 malak> (8804) over them in mount <02022 har>

Zion <06726 Tsiyown> from henceforth, even for <05704 <ad> ever

<05769 <owlam>.

01471 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob

<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <{01471} gowy> in

the midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>

as a lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the

can deliver <05337 natsal> (8688).

01471 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)

among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198

they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.

01471 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)

01471 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <{01471} gowy>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)

the house <01004 bayith> of the God <00430 >elohiym> of Jacob

<03290 Ya<aqob>; and he will teach <03384 yarah> (8686) us of

his ways <01870 derek>, and we will walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in

his paths <00734 >orach>: for the law <08451 towrah> shall go

forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, and the

word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> from Jerusalem

<03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

01486 Mic _ 02 _ 05 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall

thy baldness <07144 qorchah> as the eagle <05404 nesher>; for

they are gone into captivity <01540 galah> (8804) from thee.

01497 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <08130 sane>> (8802) the good

and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.

01516 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)

Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <{01516} gay>>, and

I will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <03247

01518 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour

(8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) out of

the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931 shakan>

(8804) in the field <07704 sadeh>, and thou shalt go <00935

01537 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142

zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of

Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>

answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>

<07144 qorchah> as the eagle <05404 nesher>; for they are gone

into captivity <{01540} galah> (8804) from thee.

01540 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)

Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

<07704 sadeh>, and as plantings <04302 matta<> of a vineyard

stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I

will discover <{01540} galah> (8762) the foundations <03247

y@cowd> thereof.

01558 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for

your sake <{01558} galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a

field <07704 sadeh>, and Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim> shall

become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the

house <01004 bayith> as the high places <01116 bamah> of the

forest <03293 ya<ar>.

01568 Mic _ 07 _ 14 6 Feed <07462 ra<ah> (8798) thy people

(8802) solitarily <00910 badad> in the wood <03293 ya<ar>, in

the midst <08432 tavek> of Carmel <03760 Karmel>: let them feed

<07462 ra<ah> (8799) in Bashan <01316 Bashan> and Gilead

<{01568} Gil<ad>, as in the days <03117 yowm> of old <05769

01612 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)

every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <{01612} gephen> and

afraid <02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the

LORD <03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696

dabar> (8765) it.

01637 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the

thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,

neither understand <00995 biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098

<etsah>: for he shall gather <06908 qabats> (8765) them as the

sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <{01637} goren>.

01644 Mic _ 02 _ 09 The women <00802 >ishshah> of my people

<05971 <am> have ye cast out <{01644} garash> (8762) from their

>erets>, and throw down <{02040} harac> (8804) all thy strong

holds <04013 mibtsar>:

02119 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the

dust <06083 <aphar> like a serpent <05175 nachash>, they shall

move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>

like worms <{02119} zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:

they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068

Y@hovah> our God <00430 >elohiym>, and shall fear <03372 yare>>

(8799) because of thee.

02132 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but

thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread

<01869 darak> (8799) the olives <{02132} zayith>, but thou shalt

not anoint <05480 cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <08081 shemen>; and

sweet wine <08492 tiyrowsh>, but shalt not drink <08354 shathah>

(8799) wine <03196 yayin>.

02135 Mic _ 06 _ 11 Shall I count them pure <{02135} zakah>

(8799) with the wicked <07562 resha<> balances <03976 mo>zen>,

and with the bag <03599 kiyc> of deceitful <04820 mirmah>

weights <00068 >eben>?

02142 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <{02142}

zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of

Moab <04124 Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what

Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>

answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>

unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <03045 yada<>

(8800) the righteousness <06666 ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068

Y@hovah>.

02181 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>

thereof shall be beaten to pieces <03807 kathath> (8714), and

all the hires <00868 >ethnan> thereof shall be burned <08313

<06091 <atsab> thereof will I lay <07760 suwm> (8799) desolate

<08077 sh@mamah>: for she gathered <06908 qabats> (8765) it of

the hire <00868 >ethnan> of an harlot <{02181} zanah> (8802),

and they shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) to the hire <00868

02181 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>

all the hires <00868 >ethnan> thereof shall be burned <08313

02194 Mic _ 06 _ 10 Are there <00786 >ish> yet the treasures

<00214 >owtsar> of wickedness <07562 resha<> (8676) <00376

and the scant <07332 razown> measure <00374 >eyphah> that is

abominable <{02194} za<am> (8803)?

02197 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the

indignation <{02197} za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,

because I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until

he plead <07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute

<06213 <asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will

bring me forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>,

and I shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666

ts@daqah>.

02199 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <{02199} za<aq> (8799)

unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030

<anah> (8799) them: he will even hide <05641 cathar> (8686) his

face <06440 paniym> from them at that time <06256 <eth>, as they

have behaved themselves ill <07489 ra<a<> (8689) in their doings

<04611 ma<alal>.

02232 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <{02232} zara<> (8799), but

thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread

<01869 darak> (8799) the olives <02132 zayith>, but thou shalt

not anoint <05480 cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <08081 shemen>; and

sweet wine <08492 tiyrowsh>, but shalt not drink <08354 shathah>

(8799) wine <03196 yayin>.

02254 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart

<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496

m@nuwchah>: because it is polluted <02930 tame>> (8800), it

shall destroy <{02254} chabal> (8762) you, even with a sore

<04834 marats> (8737) destruction <02256 chebel>.

02256 Mic _ 02 _ 05 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall

cast <07993 shalak> (8688) a cord <{02256} chebel> by lot <01486

gowral> in the congregation <06951 qahal> of the LORD <03068

02256 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart

<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496

m@nuwchah>: because it is polluted <02930 tame>> (8800), it

shall destroy <02254 chabal> (8762) you, even with a sore <04834

marats> (8737) destruction <{02256} chebel>.

02312 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier

<{02312} chedeq>: the most upright <03477 yashar> is sharper

than a thorn hedge <04534 m@cuwkah>: the day <03117 yowm> of thy

watchmen <06822 tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486

p@quddah> cometh <00935 bow>> (8804); now shall be their

perplexity <03998 m@buwkah>.

02342 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of

Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <{02342} chuwl> (8804)

for good <02896 towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381

yarad> (8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179

sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

02342 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <{02342} chuwl> (8798), and

labour to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323

bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, like a woman in travail <03205

yalad> (8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799)

out of the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931

shakan> (8804) in the field <07704 sadeh>, and thou shalt go

<00935 bow>> (8804) even to Babylon <00894 Babel>; there shalt

thou be delivered <05337 natsal> (8735); there the LORD <03068

Y@hovah> shall redeem <01350 ga>al> (8799) thee from the hand

<03709 kaph> of thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802).

02351 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955

buwshah> shall cover <03680 kacah> (8762) her which said <00559

>amar> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> thy God

<00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold <07200

ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823 mirmac>

as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <{02351} chuwts>.

02372 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

gowy> are gathered <00622 >acaph> (8738) against thee, that say

<00559 >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <02610 chaneph> (8799),

and let our eye <05869 <ayin> look <{02372} chazah> (8799) upon

Zion <06726 Tsiyown>.

02372 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

Y@hovah> that came to Micah <04318 Miykah> the Morasthite <04183

Morashtiy> in the days <03117 yowm> of Jotham <03147 Yowtham>,

Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings

<04428 melek> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>, which he saw <{02372}

chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and

Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

02374 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <{02374} chozeh> be

ashamed <00954 buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <07080 qacam>

(8802) confounded <02659 chapher> (8804): yea, they shall all

cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there

is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.

02377 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto

you, that ye shall not have a vision <{02377} chazown>; and it

shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto

you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the sun

<08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the

prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark

<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.

02388 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)

out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?

is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>

(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <{02388} chazaq>

(8689) thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).

02388 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,

that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and

passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588 pesha<>

of the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of his heritage <05159

nachalah>? he retaineth <{02388} chazaq> (8689) not his anger

<00639 >aph> for ever <05703 <ad>, because he delighteth <02654

chaphets> (8804) in mercy <02617 checed>.

02398 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the

indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because

I have sinned <{02398} chata>> (8804) against him, until he

plead <07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute

<06213 <asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will

bring me forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>,

and I shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666

ts@daqah>.

02403 Mic _ 06 _ 13 Therefore also will I make thee sick <02470

chalah> (8689) in smiting <05221 nakah> (8687) thee, in making

thee desolate <08074 shamem> (8687) because of thy sins <{02403}

chatta>ah>.

02403 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <07725 shuwb> (8799), he

will have compassion <07355 racham> (8762) upon us; he will

subdue <03533 kabash> (8799) our iniquities <05771 <avon>; and

thou wilt cast <07993 shalak> (8686) all their sins <{02403}

chatta>ah> into the depths <04688 m@tsowlah> of the sea <03220

yam>.

02403 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390

male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit <07307

ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment <04941

mishpat>, and of might <01369 g@buwrah>, to declare <05046

nagad> (8687) unto Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> his transgression

<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his sin <{02403}

chatta>ah>.

02403 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <{02403}

chatta>ah> of the house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478

Yisra>el>. What is the transgression <06588 pesha<> of Jacob

<03290 Ya<aqob>? is it not Samaria <08111 Shom@rown>? and what

are the high places <01116 bamah> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>? are

they not Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>?

02403 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of

Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot

<04818 merkabah> to the swift beast <07409 rekesh>: she is the

beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <{02403} chatta>ah> to

the daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the

transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were

found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.

02403 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams

<00352 >ayil>, or with ten thousands <07233 r@babah> of rivers

<05158 nachal> of oil <08081 shemen>? shall I give <05414

nathan> (8799) my firstborn <01060 b@kowr> for my transgression

<06588 pesha<>, the fruit <06529 p@riy> of my body <00990 beten>

for the sin <{02403} chatta>ah> of my soul <05315 nephesh>?

02427 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)

out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?

is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>

(8804)? for pangs <{02427} chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq>

(8689) thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).

02428 Mic _ 04 _ 13 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) and thresh <01758

duwsh> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>:

for I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thine horn <07161 qeren>

iron <01270 barzel>, and I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thy

hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou shalt

beat in pieces <01854 daqaq> (8689) many <07227 rab> people

<05971 <am>: and I will consecrate <02763 charam> (8689) their

gain <01215 betsa<> unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and their

substance <{02428} chayil> unto the Lord <00113 >adown> of the

whole earth <00776 >erets>.

02436 Mic _ 07 _ 05 Trust <00539 >aman> (8686) ye not in a

friend <07453 rea<>, put ye not confidence <00982 batach> (8799)

in a guide <00441 >alluwph>: keep <08104 shamar> (8798) the

doors <06607 pethach> of thy mouth <06310 peh> from her that

lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <{02436} cheyq>.

02470 Mic _ 06 _ 13 Therefore also will I make thee sick

<{02470} chalah> (8689) in smiting <05221 nakah> (8687) thee, in

making thee desolate <08074 shamem> (8687) because of thy sins

<02403 chatta>ah>.

02505 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up

<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and

lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>

lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be

utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he

hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of

my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)

it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided

<{02505} chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.

02506 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up

<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and

lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>

lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be

it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided

<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.

02530 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <{02530} chamad> (8804)

fields <07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal>

(8804); and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375

nasa>> (8804): so they oppress <06231 <ashaq> (8804) a man

<01397 geber> and his house <01004 bayith>, even a man <00376

>iysh> and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.

02534 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <06213 <asah> (8804)

vengeance <05359 naqam> in anger <00639 >aph> and fury <{02534}

chemah> upon the heathen <01471 gowy>, such as they have not

heard <08085 shama<> (8804).

02545 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

nabel> (8764) the father <00001 >ab>, the daughter <01323 bath>

riseth up <06965 quwm> (8801) against her mother <00517 >em>,

the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her mother in law

<{02545} chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341 >oyeb>

(8802) are the men <00582 >enowsh> of his own house <01004

bayith>.

02555 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are

full <04390 male>> (8804) of violence <{02555} chamac>, and the

inhabitants <03427 yashab> (8802) thereof have spoken <01696

dabar> (8765) lies <08267 sheqer>, and their tongue <03956

lashown> is deceitful <07423 r@miyah> in their mouth <06310 peh>.

02595 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)

among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198

yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar

off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)

their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and

their spears <{02595} chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211

neither shall they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421

02610 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

gowy> are gathered <00622 >acaph> (8738) against thee, that say

<00559 >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <{02610} chaneph>

upon Zion <06726 Tsiyown>.

02617 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the

truth <00571 >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

the days <03117 yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.

02617 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O

man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee, but

to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love

<00160 >ahabah> mercy <{02617} checed>, and to walk <03212

02617 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,

that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and

passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588 pesha<>

of the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of his heritage <05159

<00639 >aph> for ever <05703 <ad>, because he delighteth <02654

02623 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <{02623} chaciyd> man is perished

<00006 >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and there

hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his brother

<00251 >ach> with a net <02764 cherem>.

02654 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,

02659 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <02374 chozeh> be

ashamed <00954 buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <07080 qacam>

(8802) confounded <{02659} chapher> (8804): yea, they shall all

cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there

is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.

02706 Mic _ 07 _ 11 In the day <03117 yowm> that thy walls

<01447 gader> are to be built <01129 banah> (8800), in that day

<07368 rachaq> (8799).

02708 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <{02708} chuqqah> of Omri

a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>

(8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall

bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my

people <05971 <am>.

02719 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <00398 >akal> (8799), but not

be satisfied <07646 saba<> (8799); and thy casting down <03445

shalt take hold <05253 nacag> (8686), but shalt not deliver

<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403

palat> (8762) will I give up <05414 nathan> (8799) to the sword

<{02719} chereb>.

02719 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <07462 ra<ah> (8804)

the land <00776 >erets> of Assyria <00804 >Ashshuwr> with the

sword <{02719} chereb>, and the land <00776 >erets> of Nimrod

<05248 Nimrowd> in the entrances <06607 pethach> thereof: thus

shall he deliver <05337 natsal> (8689) us from the Assyrian

land <00776 >erets>, and when he treadeth <01869 darak> (8799)

within our borders <01366 g@buwl>.

02719 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)

among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198

their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and

their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:

 nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a

sword <{02719} chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>, neither

shall they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any

02719 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)

02729 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)

every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <01612 gephen> and under

his fig tree <08384 t@>en>; and none shall make them afraid

<{02729} charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD

<03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696

02763 Mic _ 04 _ 13 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) and thresh <01758

for I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thine horn <07161 qeren>

iron <01270 barzel>, and I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thy

hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou shalt

beat in pieces <01854 daqaq> (8689) many <07227 rab> people

02764 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

02781 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri

people <05971 <am>.

02790 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200

ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <00954 buwsh> (8799) at all

their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears

<00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <{02790} charash> (8799).

02790 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for

your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <{02790} charash> (8735) as a

field <07704 sadeh>, and Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim> shall

become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the

house <01004 bayith> as the high places <01116 bamah> of the

forest <03293 ya<ar>.

02803 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

<{02803} chashab> (8802) iniquity <00205 >aven>, and work <06466

pa<al> (8802) evil <07451 ra<> upon their beds <04904 mishkab>!

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they

practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in

the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.

02803 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)

the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940

mishpachah> do I devise <{02803} chashab> (8802) an evil <07451

necks <06677 tsavva>r>; neither shall ye go <03212 yalak> (8799)

haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil

<07451 ra<>.

02821 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto

you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it

shall be dark <{02821} chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804)

unto you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the

sun <08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the

prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark

<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.

02821 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto

you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it

shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <{02821} chashak> (8804)

02822 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,

 O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>

(8804), I shall arise <06965 quwm> (8804); when I sit <03427

yashab> (8799) in darkness <{02822} choshek>, the LORD <03068

Y@hovah> shall be a light <00216 >owr> unto me.

02896 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <08130 sane>> (8802) the good

<{02896} towb>, and love <00157 >ahab> (8802) the evil <07451

ra<>; who pluck off <01497 gazal> (8802) their skin <05785 <owr>

from off them, and their flesh <07607 sh@>er> from off their

bones <06106 <etsem>;

02896 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of

Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804) for

good <{02896} towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381

yarad> (8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179

sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

02896 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <{02896} towb> of them is as a

brier <02312 chedeq>: the most upright <03477 yashar> is sharper

than a thorn hedge <04534 m@cuwkah>: the day <03117 yowm> of thy

watchmen <06822 tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486

p@quddah> cometh <00935 bow>> (8804); now shall be their

perplexity <03998 m@buwkah>.

02896 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O

man <00120 >adam>, what is good <{02896} towb>; and what doth

the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee,

but to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to

love <00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212

yalak> (8800) humbly <06800 tsana<> (8687) with thy God <00430

>elohiym>?

02916 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955

buwshah> shall cover <03680 kacah> (8762) her which said <00559

>amar> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> thy God

<00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold <07200

ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823 mirmac>

as the mire <{02916} tiyt> of the streets <02351 chuwts>.

02919 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of

many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <{02919} tal> from

the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the

grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not for

man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <03176 yachal> (8762) for the

sons <01121 ben> of men <00120 >adam>.

02930 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart

<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496

m@nuwchah>: because it is polluted <{02930} tame>> (8800), it

shall destroy <02254 chabal> (8762) you, even with a sore <04834

marats> (8737) destruction <02256 chebel>.

02963 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob

<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the

midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a

lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the

forest <03293 ya<ar>, as a young lion <03715 k@phiyr> among the

flocks <05739 <eder> of sheep <06629 tso>n>: who, if he go

through <05674 <abar> (8804), both treadeth down <07429 ramac>

(8804), and teareth in pieces <{02963} taraph> (8804), and none

can deliver <05337 natsal> (8688).

03027 Mic _ 05 _ 12 And I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689)

witchcrafts <03785 kesheph> out of thine hand <{03027} yad>; and

thou shalt have no more soothsayers <06049 <anan> (8781):

03027 Mic _ 05 _ 09 Thine hand <{03027} yad> shall be lifted up

<07311 ruwm> (8799) upon thine adversaries <06862 tsar>, and all

thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802) shall be cut off <03772

karath> (8735).

03027 Mic _ 05 _ 13 Thy graven images <06456 p@ciyl> also will I

cut off <03772 karath> (8689), and thy standing images <04676

matstsebah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee; and thou

shalt no more worship <07812 shachah> (8691) the work <04639

ma<aseh> of thine hands <{03027} yad>.

03027 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200

ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <00954 buwsh> (8799) at all

their might <01369 g@buwrah>: they shall lay <07760 suwm> (8799)

their hand <{03027} yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their

ears <00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).

03027 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

<02803 chashab> (8802) iniquity <00205 >aven>, and work <06466

pa<al> (8802) evil <07451 ra<> upon their beds <04904 mishkab>!

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they

practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in

the power <00410 >el> of their hand <{03027} yad>.

03045 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <{03045} yada<> (8804) not the

thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,

neither understand <00995 biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098

<etsah>: for he shall gather <06908 qabats> (8765) them as the

sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.

03045 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear

<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the

house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for

you to know <{03045} yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?

03045 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142

zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of

Moab <04124 Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what

Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>

answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>

unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <{03045} yada<>

(8800) the righteousness <06666 ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068

Y@hovah>.

03063 Mic _ 01 _ 09 For her wound <04347 makkah> is incurable

<00605 >anash> (8803); for it is come <00935 bow>> (8804) unto

Judah <{03063} Y@huwdah>; he is come <05060 naga<> (8804) unto

the gate <08179 sha<ar> of my people <05971 <am>, even to

Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

03063 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

Y@hovah> that came to Micah <04318 Miykah> the Morasthite <04183

Morashtiy> in the days <03117 yowm> of Jotham <03147 Yowtham>,

Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings

<04428 melek> of Judah <{03063} Y@huwdah>, which he saw <02372

chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and

Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

03063 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403

chatta>ah> of the house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478

Yisra>el>. What is the transgression <06588 pesha<> of Jacob

<03290 Ya<aqob>? is it not Samaria <08111 Shom@rown>? and what

are the high places <01116 bamah> of Judah <{03063} Y@huwdah>?

are they not Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>?

03063 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>

Ephratah <00672 >Ephraath>, though thou be little <06810

tsa<iyr> among the thousands <00505 >eleph> of Judah <{03063}

Y@huwdah>, yet out of thee shall he come forth <03318 yatsa>>

(8799) unto me that is to be ruler <04910 mashal> (8802) in

Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <04163 mowtsa>ah>

have been from of old <06924 qedem>, from everlasting <03117

yowm> <05769 <owlam>.

03068 Mic _ 02 _ 05 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall

cast <07993 shalak> (8688) a cord <02256 chebel> by lot <01486

03068 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

(8762) unto the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>; I will wait <03176

<03468 yesha<>: my God <00430 >elohiym> will hear <08085 shama<>

(8799) me.

03068 Mic _ 01 _ 03 For, behold, the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>

cometh forth <03318 yatsa>> (8802) out of his place <04725

<01869 darak> (8804) upon the high places <01116 bamah> of the

earth <00776 >erets>.

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 01 6 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye now what the

LORD <{03068} Y@hovah> saith <00559 >amar> (8802); Arise <06965

03068 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of

Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804) for

good <02896 towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381 yarad>

(8804) from the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179

03068 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,

 O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>

yashab> (8799) in darkness <02822 choshek>, the LORD <{03068}

Y@hovah> shall be a light <00216 >owr> unto me.

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the

thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>,

sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.

03068 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117

that I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689) thy horses <05483

<00006 >abad> (8689) thy chariots <04818 merkabah>:

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 05 For all people <05971 <am> will walk <03212

our God <00430 >elohiym> for ever <05769 <owlam> and ever <05703

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <{03068} Y@hovah> voice <06963

rod <04294 matteh>, and who hath appointed <03259 ya<ad> (8804)

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)

every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <01612 gephen> and under

his fig tree <08384 t@>en>; and none shall make them afraid

<02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD

<{03068} Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696

dabar> (8765) it.

03068 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <02199 za<aq> (8799)

unto the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030

face <06440 paniym> from them at that time <06256 <eth>, as they

have behaved themselves ill <07489 ra<a<> (8689) in their doings

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 06 6 Wherewith shall I come before <06923

burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a

03068 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)

the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit

words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him that

walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?

03068 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O

man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

but to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to

love <00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212

03068 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)

the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940

haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil

<07451 ra<>.

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 07 And I will make <07760 suwm> (8804) her that

halted <06760 tsala<> (8802) a remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth>, and

her that was cast far off <01972 hala>> (8737) a strong <06099

shall reign <04427 malak> (8804) over them in mount <02022 har>

Zion <06726 Tsiyown> from henceforth, even for <05704 <ad> ever

03068 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the

dust <06083 <aphar> like a serpent <05175 nachash>, they shall

move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>

like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:

03068 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD

03068 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and

feed <07462 ra<ah> (8804) in the strength <05797 <oz> of the

name <08034 shem> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> his God <00430

shall he be great <01431 gadal> (8799) unto the ends <00657

03068 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and

feed <07462 ra<ah> (8804) in the strength <05797 <oz> of the

LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, in the majesty <01347 ga>own> of the name

<08034 shem> of the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah> his God <00430

>ephec> of the earth <00776 >erets>.

03068 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of

many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from

the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon

the grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not

sons <01121 ben> of men <00120 >adam>.

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days

<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022

har> of the house <01004 bayith> of the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>

shall be established <03559 kuwn> (8737) in the top <07218

<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and people

<05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.

03068 Mic _ 02 _ 13 The breaker <06555 parats> (8802) is come up

<05927 <alah> (8804) before <06440 paniym> them: they have

<abar> (8799) the gate <08179 sha<ar>, and are gone out <03318

<05674 <abar> (8799) before <06440 paniym> them, and the LORD

<{03068} Y@hovah> on the head <07218 ro>sh> of them.

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah> be pleased

<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams

<05158 nachal> of oil <08081 shemen>? shall I give <05414

nathan> (8799) my firstborn <01060 b@kowr> for my transgression

<06588 pesha<>, the fruit <06529 p@riy> of my body <00990 beten>

for the sin <02403 chatta>ah> of my soul <05315 nephesh>?

03068 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955

God <00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold

<07200 ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823

mirmac> as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <02351 chuwts>.

03068 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the

indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>,

because I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until

he plead <07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute

<06213 <asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will

bring me forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>,

and I shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666

03068 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD

<05391 nashak> (8802) with their teeth <08127 shen>, and cry

<07121 qara>> (8804), Peace <07965 shalowm>; and he that putteth

him.

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142

zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of

03117 Mic _ 07 _ 15 According to the days <{03117} yowm> of thy

coming <03318 yatsa>> (8800) out of the land <00776 >erets> of

Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim> will I shew <07200 ra>ah> (8686) unto

03117 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the

truth <00571 >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

sworn <07650 shaba<> (8738) unto our fathers <00001 >ab> from

the days <{03117} yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.

03117 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day

03117 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier

watchmen <06822 tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486

03117 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings

<04428 melek> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>, which he saw <02372

chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and

Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

03117 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto

you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it

shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto

you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the sun

<08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the

prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <{03117} yowm> shall be

dark <06937 qadar> (8804) over them.

03117 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days

<{03117} yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022

shall be established <03559 kuwn> (8737) in the top <07218

<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and people

<05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.

03117 Mic _ 07 _ 14 6 Feed <07462 ra<ah> (8798) thy people

(8802) solitarily <00910 badad> in the wood <03293 ya<ar>, in

the midst <08432 tavek> of Carmel <03760 Karmel>: let them feed

<07462 ra<ah> (8799) in Bashan <01316 Bashan> and Gilead <01568

Gil<ad>, as in the days <{03117} yowm> of old <05769 <owlam>.

03117 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>

Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <04163 mowtsa>ah>

have been from of old <06924 qedem>, from everlasting <{03117}

03117 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <{03117} yowm> shall one take up

<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and

lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>

lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be

utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he

hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of

my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)

it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided

<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.

03147 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

03162 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)

assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of

(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;

 I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <{03162} yachad>

as the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677)

<01224 Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <08432

<01949 huwm> (8686) by reason of the multitude of men <00120

03169 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and

Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.

03176 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

(8762) unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; I will wait <{03176}

yachal> (8686) for the God <00430 >elohiym> of my salvation

<03468 yesha<>: my God <00430 >elohiym> will hear <08085 shama<>

(8799) me.

03176 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of

many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from

the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the

grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not for

man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <{03176} yachal> (8762) for the

sons <01121 ben> of men <00120 >adam>.

03190 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)

the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit

<07307 ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> straitened <07114

qatsar> (8804)? are these his doings <04611 ma<alal>? do not my

words <01697 dabar> do good <{03190} yatab> (8686) to him that

walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?

03190 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both

hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <{03190} yatab> (8687), the prince

<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <08199

shaphat> (8802) asketh for a reward <07966 shilluwm>; and the

great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his

mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap

it up <05686 <abath> (8762).

03196 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but

thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread

<01869 darak> (8799) the olives <02132 zayith>, but thou shalt

not anoint <05480 cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <08081 shemen>; and

sweet wine <08492 tiyrowsh>, but shalt not drink <08354 shathah>

(8799) wine <{03196} yayin>.

03196 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking

<01980 halak> (8802) in the spirit <07307 ruwach> and falsehood

<08267 sheqer> do lie <03576 kazab> (8765), saying, I will

prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <{03196} yayin>

<05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.

03198 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains

the earth <00776 >erets>: for the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> hath a

controversy <07379 riyb> with his people <05971 <am>, and he

will plead <{03198} yakach> (8691) with Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.

03198 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)

among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <{03198}

yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar

off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)

their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and

their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:

 nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a

sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>, neither shall

they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.

03205 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)

out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?

is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>

(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq> (8689)

thee as a woman in travail <{03205} yalad> (8802).

03205 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414

travaileth <{03205} yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205

03205 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour

to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of

(8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) out of

the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931 shakan>

(8804) in the field <07704 sadeh>, and thou shalt go <00935

03212 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart

<{03212} yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496

03212 Mic _ 04 _ 05 For all people <05971 <am> will walk <03212

03212 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad>

03212 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O

man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love

evil <07451 ra<>.

03247 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)

Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I

will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <{03247}

03259 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> voice <06963

03284 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad>

<04553 micepd> like the dragons <08577 tanniyn>, and mourning

<00060 >ebel> as the owls <01323 bath> <{03284} ya<anah>.

03289 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)

out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?

is thy counsellor <{03289} ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>

(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq> (8689)

thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).

03289 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142

not forth <{03318} yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <04553 micepd>

03318 Mic _ 02 _ 13 The breaker <06555 parats> (8802) is come up

03318 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the

indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because

I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead
