Micah 1
1. The word <01697> of the LORD <03068> that came <01961> to
Micah <04318> the Morasthite <04183> in the days <03117> of
Jotham <03147>, Ahaz <0271>, [and] Hezekiah <02396>, kings
<04428> of Judah <03063>, which <0834> he saw <02372> concerning
<05921> Samaria <08111> and Jerusalem <03389>.
2 Hear <08085>, all <03605> ye people <05971>; hearken <07181>,
O earth <0776>, and all <04393> that therein <04393> is: and let
the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> be witness <05707> against you, the
Lord <0136> from his holy <06944> temple <01964>.
3 For, behold <02009>, the LORD <03068> cometh <03318> forth
<03318> out of his place <04725>, and will come <03381> down
<03381>, and tread <01869> upon the high <01116> places of the
earth <0776>.
4 And the mountains <02022> shall be molten <04549> under
<08478> him, and the valleys <06010> shall be cleft <01234>, as
wax <01749> before <06440> the fire <0784>, [and] as the waters
<04325> [that are] poured <05064> down a steep <04174> place.
5 For the transgression <06588> of Jacob <03290> [is] all
<03605> this <02063>, and for the sins <02403> of the house
<01004> of Israel <03478>. What <04310> [is] the transgression
<06588> of Jacob <03290>? [is it] not Samaria <08111>? and what
<04310> [are] the high <01116> places of Judah <03063>? [are
they] not Jerusalem <03389>?
6 Therefore I will make <07760> Samaria <08111> as an heap
<05856> of the field <07704>, [and] as plantings <04302> of a
vineyard <03754>: and I will pour <05064> down the stones <068>
thereof into the valley <01516>, and I will discover <01540> the
foundations <03247> thereof.
7 And all <03605> the graven <06456> images thereof shall be
beaten <03807> to pieces, and all <03605> the hires <0868>
thereof shall be burned <08313> with the fire <0784>, and all
<03605> the idols <06091> thereof will I lay <07760> desolate
<08077>: for she gathered <06908> [it] of the hire <0868> of an
harlot <02181>, and they shall return <07725> to the hire <0868>
of an harlot <02181>.
8. Therefore I will wail <05594> and howl <03213>, I will go
<03212> stripped <07758> and naked <06174>: I will make <06213>
a wailing <04553> like the dragons <08577>, and mourning <060>
as the owls.
9 For her wound <04347> [is] incurable <0605>; for it is come
<0935> unto Judah <03063>; he is come <05060> unto the gate
<08179> of my people <05971>, [even] to Jerusalem <03389>.
10 Declare <05046> ye [it] not at Gath <01661>, weep <01058> ye
not at all: in the house <01035> of Aphrah <01036> roll <06428>
thyself in the dust <06083>.
11 Pass <05674> ye away, thou inhabitant <03427> of Saphir
<08208>, having thy shame <01322> naked <06181>: the inhabitant
<03427> of Zaanan came <03318> not forth <03318> in the mourning
<04553> of Bethezel <01018>; he shall receive <03947> of you his
standing <05979>.
12 For the inhabitant <03427> of Maroth <04796> waited <02342>
carefully <02470> for good <02896>: but evil <07451> came
<03381> down <03381> from the LORD <03068> unto the gate <08179>
of Jerusalem <03389>.
13 O thou inhabitant <03427> of Lachish <03923>, bind <07573>
the chariot <04818> to the swift <07409> beast <07409>: she [is]
the beginning <07225> of the sin <02403> to the daughter <01323>
of Zion <06726>: for the transgressions <06588> of Israel
<03478> were found <04672> in thee.
14 Therefore <03651> shalt thou give <05414> presents <07964>
to Moreshethgath <04182>: the houses <01004> of Achzib <0392>
[shall be] a lie <0391> to the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>.
15 Yet <05750> will I bring <0935> an heir <03423> unto thee, O
inhabitant <03427> of Mareshah <04762>: he shall come <0935>
unto Adullam <05725> the glory <03519> of Israel <03478>.
16 Make thee bald <07139>, and poll <01494> thee for thy
delicate <08588> children <01121>; enlarge <07337> thy baldness
<07144> as the eagle <05404>; for they are gone into captivity
<01540> from thee.
Micah 2
1. Woe <01945> to them that devise <02803> iniquity <0205>, and
work <06466> evil <07451> upon their beds <04904>! when the
morning <01242> is light <0216>, they practise <06213> it,
because <03588> it is in the power <0410> of their hand <03027>.
2 And they covet <02530> fields <07704>, and take <05375>
[them] by violence <01497>; and houses <01004>, and take <05375>
[them] away <07726>: so they oppress <06231> a man <01397> and
his house <01004>, even a man <0376> and his heritage <05159>.
3 Therefore <03651> thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>;
Behold <02005>, against <05921> this <02063> family <04940> do I
devise <02803> an evil <07451>, from which <0834> ye shall not
remove <04185> your necks <06677>; neither <03808> shall ye go
<03212> haughtily <07317>: for this <01931> time <06256> [is]
evil <07451>.
4 In that day <03117> shall [one] take <05375> up a parable
<04912> against <05921> you, and lament <05091> with a doleful
<05093> lamentation <05092>, [and] say <0559>, We be utterly
<07703> spoiled <07703>: he hath changed <04171> the portion
<02506> of my people <05971>: how <0349> hath he removed <04185>
[it] from me! turning <07725> away he hath divided <02505> our
fields <07704>.
5 Therefore <03651> thou shalt have <01961> none <03808> that
shall cast <07993> a cord <02256> by lot <01486> in the
congregation <06951> of the LORD <03068>.
6. Prophesy <05197> ye not, [say they to them that] prophesy
<05197>: they shall not prophesy <05197> to them, [that] they
shall not take <05253> shame <03639>.
7 O [thou that art] named <0559> the house <01004> of Jacob
<03290>, is the spirit <07307> of the LORD <03068> straitened
<07114>? [are] these <0428> his doings <04611>? do not my words
<01697> do good <03190> to him that walketh <01980> uprightly
<03477>?
8 Even of late <0865> my people <05971> is risen <06965> up as
an enemy <0341>: ye pull <06584> off the robe <0145> with the
garment <08008> from them that pass <05674> by securely <0983>
as men averse <07725> from war <04421>.
9 The women <0802> of my people <05971> have ye cast <01644>
out from their pleasant <08588> houses <01004>; from their
children <05768> have ye taken <03947> away my glory <01926> for
ever <05769>.
10 Arise <06965> ye, and depart <03212>; for this <02063> [is]
not [your] rest <04496>: because <05668> it is polluted <02930>,
it shall destroy <02254> [you], even with a sore <04834>
destruction <02256>.
11 If <05863> a man <0376> walking <01980> in the spirit
<07307> and falsehood <08267> do lie <03576>, [saying], I will
prophesy <05197> unto thee of wine <03196> and of strong <07941>
drink <07941>; he shall even be the prophet <05197> of this
<02088> people <05971>.
12. I will surely assemble <0622>, O Jacob <03290>, all <03605>
of thee; I will surely gather <06908> the remnant <07611> of
Israel <03478>; I will put <07760> them together <03162> as the
sheep <06629> of Bozrah <01224>, as the flock <05739> in the
midst <08432> of their fold <01699>: they shall make great noise
<01949> by reason of [the multitude of] men <0120>.
13 The breaker <06555> is come <05927> up before <06440> them:
they have broken <06555> up, and have passed <05674> through the
gate <08179>, and are gone <03318> out by it: and their king
<04428> shall pass <05674> before <06440> them, and the LORD
<03068> on the head <07218> of them.
Micah 3
1. And I said <0559>, Hear <08085>, I pray <04994> you, O heads
<07218> of Jacob <03290>, and ye princes <07101> of the house
<01004> of Israel <03478>; [Is it] not for you to know <03045>
judgment <04941>?
2 Who <04310> hate <08130> the good <02896>, and love <0157>
the evil <07451>; who <04310> pluck <01497> off their skin
<05785> from off them, and their flesh <07607> from off <05921>
their bones <06106>;
3 Who <04310> also eat <0398> the flesh <07607> of my people
<05971>, and flay <06584> their skin <05785> from off <05921>
them; and they break <06746> their bones <06106>, and chop
<06566> them in pieces, as for the pot <05518>, and as flesh
<01320> within <08432> the caldron <07037>.
4 Then <0227> shall they cry <02199> unto the LORD <03068>, but
he will not hear <06030> them: he will even hide <05641> his
face <06440> from them at that time <06256>, as they have
behaved <07489> themselves ill <07489> in their doings <04611>.
5 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> concerning <05921>
the prophets <05030> that make my people <05971> err <08582>,
that bite <05391> with their teeth <08127>, and cry <07121>,
Peace <07965>; and he that putteth <05414> not into <05921>
their mouths <06310>, they even prepare <06942> war <04421>
against <05921> him.
6 Therefore <03651> night <03915> [shall be] unto you, that ye
shall not have a vision <02377>; and it shall be dark <02821>
unto you, that ye shall not divine <07080>; and the sun <08121>
shall go <0935> down over <05921> the prophets <05030>, and the
day <03117> shall be dark <06937> over <05921> them.
7 Then shall the seers <02374> be ashamed <0954>, and the
diviners <07080> confounded <02659>: yea, they shall all <03605>
cover <05844> their lips <08222>; for [there is] no <0369>
answer <04617> of God <0430>.
8. But truly <0199> I am full <04390> of power <03581> by the
spirit <07307> of the LORD <03068>, and of judgment <04941>, and
of might <01369>, to declare <05046> unto Jacob <03290> his
transgression <06588>, and to Israel <03478> his sin <02403>.
9 Hear <08085> this <02063>, I pray <04994> you, ye heads
<07218> of the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, and princes
<07101> of the house <01004> of Israel <03478>, that abhor
<08581> judgment <04941>, and pervert <06140> all <03605> equity
<03477>.
10 They build <01129> up Zion <06726> with blood <01818>, and
Jerusalem <03389> with iniquity <05766>.
11 The heads <07218> thereof judge <08199> for reward <07810>,
and the priests <03548> thereof teach <03384> for hire <04242>,
and the prophets <05030> thereof divine <07080> for money
<03701>: yet will they lean <08172> upon the LORD <03068>, and
say <0559>, [Is] not the LORD <03068> among <07130> us? none
<03808> evil <07451> can come <0935> upon us.
12 Therefore <03651> shall Zion <06726> for your sake <01558>
be plowed <02790> [as] a field <07704>, and Jerusalem <03389>
shall become <01961> heaps <05856>, and the mountain <02022> of
the house <01004> as the high <01116> places of the forest
<03293>.
Micah 4
1. But in the last <0319> days <03117> it shall come <01961> to
pass, [that] the mountain <02022> of the house <01004> of the
LORD <03068> shall be established <03559> in the top <07218> of
the mountains <02022>, and it shall be exalted <05375> above the
hills <01389>; and people <05971> shall flow <05102> unto it.
2 And many <07227> nations <01471> shall come <01980>, and say
<0559>, Come <03212>, and let us go <05927> up to the mountain
<02022> of the LORD <03068>, and to the house <01004> of the God
<0430> of Jacob <03290>; and he will teach <03384> us of his
ways <01870>, and we will walk <03212> in his paths <0734>: for
the law <08451> shall go <03318> forth <03318> of Zion <06726>,
and the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> from Jerusalem <03389>.
3 And he shall judge <08199> among <0996> many <07227> people
<05971>, and rebuke <03198> strong <06099> nations <01471> afar
<07350> off; and they shall beat <03807> their swords <02719>
into plowshares <0855>, and their spears <02595> into
pruninghooks <04211>: nation <01471> shall not lift <05375> up a
sword <02719> against <0413> nation <01471>, neither <03808>
shall they learn <03925> war <04421> any more <05750>.
4 But they shall sit <03427> every man <0376> under <08478> his
vine <01612> and under <08478> his fig <08384> tree; and none
<0369> shall make [them] afraid <02729>: for the mouth <06310>
of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> hath spoken <01696> [it].
5 For all <03605> people <05971> will walk <03212> every <0376>
one <0376> in the name <08034> of his god <0430>, and we will
walk <03212> in the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> our God
<0430> for ever <05769> and ever <05703>.
6 In that day <03117>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, will I
assemble <0622> her that halteth <06761>, and I will gather
<06908> her that is driven <05080> out, and her that I have
afflicted <07489>;
7 And I will make <07760> her that halted <06761> a remnant
<07611>, and her that was cast <01972> far off a strong <06099>
nation <01471>: and the LORD <03068> shall reign <04427> over
<05921> them in mount <02022> Zion <06726> from henceforth, even
for ever <05769>.
8. And thou, O tower <04026> of the flock <05739>, the strong
<06076> hold <05076> of the daughter <01323> of Zion <06726>,
unto thee shall it come <0857>, even the first <07223> dominion
<04475>; the kingdom <04467> shall come <0935> to the daughter
<01323> of Jerusalem <03389>.
9 Now <06258> why <04100> dost thou cry <07321> out aloud
<07452>? [is there] no <0369> king <04428> in thee? is thy
counsellor <03289> perished <06>? for pangs <02427> have taken
<02388> thee as a woman in travail <03205>.
10 Be in pain <02342>, and labour <01518> to bring <01518>
forth <01518>, O daughter <01323> of Zion <06726>, like a woman
in travail <03205>: for now <06258> shalt thou go <03318> forth
<03318> out of the city <07151>, and thou shalt dwell <07931> in
the field <07704>, and thou shalt go <0935> [even] to Babylon
<0894>; there shalt thou be delivered <05337>; there <08033> the
LORD <03068> shall redeem <01350> thee from the hand <03709> of
thine enemies <0341>.
11 Now <06258> also many <07227> nations <01471> are gathered
<0622> against <05921> thee, that say <0559>, Let her be defiled
<02610>, and let our eye <05869> look <02372> upon Zion <06726>.
12 But they know <03045> not the thoughts <04284> of the LORD
<03068>, neither <03808> understand <0995> they his counsel
<06098>: for he shall gather <06908> them as the sheaves <05995>
into the floor <01637>.
13 Arise <06965> and thresh <01758>, O daughter <01323> of Zion
<06726>: for I will make <07760> thine horn <07161> iron <01270>,
and I will make <07760> thy hoofs <06541> brass <05154>: and
thou shalt beat <01854> in pieces many <07227> people <05971>:
and I will consecrate <02763> their gain <01214> unto the LORD
<03068>, and their substance <02428> unto the Lord <0113> of the
whole <03605> earth <0776>.
Micah 5
1. Now <06258> gather <01413> thyself in troops <01416>, O
daughter <01323> of troops <01416>: he hath laid <07760> siege
<04692> against <05921> us: they shall smite <05221> the judge
<08199> of Israel <03478> with a rod <07626> upon the cheek
<03895>.
2 But thou, Bethlehem <01035> Ephratah <0672>, [though] thou be
little <06810> among the thousands <0505> of Judah <03063>,
[yet] out of thee shall he come <03318> forth <03318> unto me
[that is] to be ruler <04910> in Israel <03478>; whose goings
<04163> forth <04163> [have been] from of old <06924>, from
everlasting <05769>.
3 Therefore <03651> will he give <05414> them up, until <05704>
the time <06256> [that] she which travaileth <03205> hath
brought <03205> forth <03205>: then the remnant <03199> of his
brethren <0251> shall return <07725> unto the children <01121>
of Israel <03478>.
4 And he shall stand <05975> and feed <07462> in the strength
<05797> of the LORD <03068>, in the majesty <01347> of the name
<08034> of the LORD <03068> his God <0430>; and they shall abide
<03427>: for now <06258> shall he be great <01431> unto the ends
<0657> of the earth <0776>.
5 And this <02088> [man] shall be the peace <07965>, when
<03588> the Assyrian <0804> shall come <0935> into our land
<0776>: and when <03588> he shall tread <01869> in our palaces
<0759>, then shall we raise <06965> against <05921> him seven
<07651> shepherds <07462>, and eight <08083> principal <05257>
men <0120>.
6 And they shall waste <07489> the land <0776> of Assyria
<0804> with the sword <02719>, and the land <0776> of Nimrod
<05248> in the entrances <06607> thereof: thus shall he deliver
<05337> [us] from the Assyrian <0804>, when <03588> he cometh
<0935> into our land <0776>, and when <03588> he treadeth
<01869> within our borders <01366>.
7. And the remnant <07611> of Jacob <03290> shall be in the
midst <07130> of many <07227> people <05971> as a dew <02919>
from the LORD <03068>, as the showers <07241> upon the grass
<06212>, that tarrieth <06960> not for man <0376>, nor <03808>
waiteth <03176> for the sons <01121> of men <0120>.
8 And the remnant <07611> of Jacob <03290> shall be among the
Gentiles <01471> in the midst <07130> of many <07227> people
<05971> as a lion <0738> among the beasts <0929> of the forest
<03293>, as a young <03715> lion <03715> among the flocks
<05739> of sheep <06629>: who <0834>, if <0518> he go <05674>
through <05674>, both treadeth <07429> down, and teareth <02963>
in pieces, and none <0369> can deliver <05337>.
9 Thine hand <03027> shall be lifted <07311> up upon thine
adversaries <06862>, and all thine enemies <0341> shall be cut
<03772> off.
10 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, saith
<05002> the LORD <03068>, that I will cut <03772> off thy horses
<05483> out of the midst <07130> of thee, and I will destroy
<06> thy chariots <04818>:
11 And I will cut <03772> off the cities <05892> of thy land
<0776>, and throw <02040> down <02040> all <03605> thy strong
<04013> holds <04013>:
12 And I will cut <03772> off witchcrafts <03785> out of thine
hand <03027>; and thou shalt have <01961> no <03808> [more]
soothsayers <06049>:
13 Thy graven <06456> images <04676> also will I cut <03772>
off, and thy standing <04676> images out of the midst <07130> of
thee; and thou shalt no <03808> more <05750> worship <07812> the
work <04639> of thine hands <03027>.
14 And I will pluck <05428> up thy groves <0842> out of the
midst <07130> of thee: so will I destroy <08045> thy cities
<05892>.
15 And I will execute <06213> vengeance <05359> in anger <0639>
and fury <02534> upon the heathen <01471>, such as they have not
heard <08085>.
Micah 6
1. Hear <08085> ye now <04994> what <0834> the LORD <03068>
saith <0559>; Arise <06965>, contend <07678> thou before <0854>
the mountains <02022>, and let the hills <01389> hear <08085>
thy voice <06963>.
2 Hear <08085> ye, O mountains <02022>, the LORD'S <03068>
controversy <07379>, and ye strong <0386> foundations <04146> of
the earth <0776>: for the LORD <03068> hath a controversy
<07379> with his people <05971>, and he will plead <03198> with
Israel <03478>.
3 O my people <05971>, what <04100> have I done <06213> unto
thee? and wherein <04100> have I wearied <03811> thee? testify
<06030> against me.
4 For I brought <05927> thee up out of the land <0776> of Egypt
<04714>, and redeemed <06299> thee out of the house <01004> of
servants <05650>; and I sent <07971> before <06440> thee Moses
<04872>, Aaron <0175>, and Miriam <04813>.
5 O my people <05971>, remember <02142> now <04994> what
<04100> Balak <01111> king <04428> of Moab <04124> consulted
<03289>, and what <04100> Balaam <01109> the son <01121> of Beor
<01160> answered <06030> him from Shittim <07851> unto Gilgal
<01537>; that ye may know <03045> the righteousness <06666> of
the LORD <03068>.
6. Wherewith <04100> shall I come <06923> before <06924> the
LORD <03068>, [and] bow <03721> myself before the high <04791>
God <0430>? shall I come <06923> before <06924> him with burnt
<05930> offerings, with calves <05695> of a year <08141> old
<01121>?
7 Will the LORD <03068> be pleased <07521> with thousands
<0505> of rams <0352>, [or] with ten <07233> thousands <07233>
of rivers <05158> of oil <08081>? shall I give <05414> my
firstborn <01060> [for] my transgression <06588>, the fruit
<06529> of my body <0990> [for] the sin <02403> of my soul
<05315>?
8 He hath shewed <05046> thee, O man <0120>, what <04100> [is]
good <02896>; and what <04100> doth the LORD <03068> require
<01875> of thee, but to do <06213> justly <04941>, and to love
<0160> mercy <02617>, and to walk <03212> humbly <06800> with
thy God <0430>?
9. The LORD'S <03068> voice <06963> crieth <07121> unto the
city <05892>, and [the man of] wisdom <08454> shall see <07200>
thy name <08034>: hear <08085> ye the rod <04294>, and who
<04310> hath appointed <03259> it.
10 Are there yet <05750> the treasures <0214> of wickedness
<07562> in the house <01004> of the wicked <07563>, and the
scant <07332> measure <0374> [that is] abominable <02194>?
11 Shall I count [them] pure <02135> with the wicked <07562>
balances <03976>, and with the bag <03599> of deceitful <04820>
weights <068>?
12 For the rich <06223> men thereof are full <04390> of
violence <02555>, and the inhabitants <03427> thereof have
spoken <01696> lies <08267>, and their tongue <03956> [is]
deceitful <07423> in their mouth <06310>.
13 Therefore also <01571> will I make [thee] sick <02470> in
smiting <05221> thee, in making [thee] desolate <08074> because
<05921> of thy sins <02403>.
14 Thou shalt eat <0398>, but not be satisfied <07646>; and thy
casting <03445> down [shall be] in the midst <07130> of thee;
and thou shalt take <05253> hold <05253>, but shalt not deliver
<06403>; and [that] which <0834> thou deliverest <06403> will I
give <05414> up to the sword <02719>.
15 Thou shalt sow <02232>, but thou shalt not reap <07114>;
thou shalt tread <01869> the olives <02132>, but thou shalt not
anoint <05480> thee with oil <08081>; and sweet <08492> wine
<08492>, but shalt not drink <08354> wine <03196>.
16 For the statutes <02708> of Omri <06018> are kept <08104>,
and all <03605> the works <04639> of the house <01004> of Ahab
<0256>, and ye walk <03212> in their counsels <04156>; that I
should make <05414> thee a desolation <08047>, and the
inhabitants <03427> thereof an hissing <08322>: therefore ye
shall bear <05375> the reproach <02781> of my people <05971>.
Micah 7
1. Woe <0480> is me! for I am as when they have gathered <0622>
the summer <07019> fruits, as the grapegleanings <05955> of the
vintage <01210>: [there is] no <0369> cluster <0811> to eat
<0398>: my soul <05315> desired <0183> the firstripe <01063>
fruit.
2 The good <02623> [man] is perished <06> out of the earth
<0776>: and [there is] none <0369> upright <03477> among men
<0120>: they all <03605> lie in wait <0693> for blood <01818>;
they hunt <06679> every man <0376> his brother <0251> with a net
<02764>.
3 That they may do evil <07451> with both hands <03709>
earnestly <03190>, the prince <08269> asketh <07592>, and the
judge <08199> [asketh <07592>] for a reward <07966>; and the
great <01419> [man], he uttereth <01696> his mischievous <01942>
desire <05315>: so they wrap <05686> it up.
4 The best <02896> of them [is] as a brier <02312>: the most
upright <03477> [is sharper] than a thorn <04534> hedge <04534>:
the day <03117> of thy watchmen <06822> [and] thy visitation
<06486> cometh <0935>; now <06258> shall be their perplexity
<03998>.
5 Trust <0539> ye not in a friend <07453>, put ye not
confidence <0982> in a guide <0441>: keep <08104> the doors
<06607> of thy mouth <06310> from her that lieth <07901> in thy
bosom <02436>.
6 For the son <01121> dishonoureth <05034> the father <02>, the
daughter <01323> riseth <06965> up against her mother <0517>,
the daughter <03618> in law <03618> against her mother <02545>
in law <02545>; a man's <0376> enemies <0341> [are] the men
<0582> of his own house <01004>.
7. Therefore I will look <06822> unto the LORD <03068>; I will
wait <03176> for the God <0430> of my salvation <03468>: my God
<0430> will hear <08085> me.
8 Rejoice <08056> not against me, O mine enemy <0341>: when
<03588> I fall <05307>, I shall arise <06965>; when I sit
<03427> in darkness <02822>, the LORD <03068> [shall be] a light
<0216> unto me.
9 I will bear <05375> the indignation <02197> of the LORD
<03068>, because <03588> I have sinned <02398> against him,
until <05704> he plead <07378> my cause <07379>, and execute
<06213> judgment <04941> for me: he will bring <03318> me forth
<03318> to the light <0216>, [and] I shall behold <07200> his
righteousness <06666>.
10 Then [she that is] mine enemy <0341> shall see <07200> [it],
and shame <0955> shall cover <03680> her which said <0559> unto
me, Where <0346> is the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>? mine eyes
<05869> shall behold <07200> her: now <06258> shall she be
trodden <04823> down as the mire <02916> of the streets <02351>.
11 [In] the day <03117> that thy walls <01447> are to be built
<01129>, [in] that day <03117> shall the decree <02706> be far
<07368> removed.
12 [In] that day <03117> [also] he shall come <0935> even to
thee from Assyria <0804>, and [from] the fortified <04692>
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>.
13 Notwithstanding the land <0776> shall be desolate <08077>
because <05921> of them that dwell <03427> therein, for the
fruit <06529> of their doings <04611>.
14. Feed <07462> thy people <05971> with thy rod <07626>, the
flock <06629> of thine heritage <05159>, which dwell <07931>
solitarily <0910> [in] the wood <03293>, in the midst <08432> of
Carmel <03760>: let them feed <07462> [in] Bashan <01316> and
Gilead <01568>, as in the days <03117> of old <05769>.
15 According to the days <03117> of thy coming <03318> out of
the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> will I shew <07200> unto him
marvellous <06381> [things].
16 The nations <01471> shall see <07200> and be confounded
<0954> at all <03605> their might <01369>: they shall lay
<07760> [their] hand <03027> upon [their] mouth <06310>, their
ears <0241> shall be deaf <02790>.
17 They shall lick <03897> the dust <06083> like a serpent
<05175>, they shall move <07264> out of their holes <04526> like
worms <02119> of the earth <0776>: they shall be afraid <06342>
of the LORD <03068> our God <0430>, and shall fear <03372>
because of thee.
18 Who <04310> [is] a God <0410> like <03644> unto thee, that
pardoneth <05375> iniquity <05771>, and passeth <05674> by the
transgression <06588> of the remnant <07611> of his heritage
<05159>? he retaineth <02388> not his anger <0639> for ever
<05706>, because <03588> he delighteth <02654> [in] mercy
<02617>.
19 He will turn <07725> again <07725>, he will have compassion
<07355> upon us; he will subdue <03533> our iniquities <05771>;
and thou wilt cast <07993> all <03605> their sins <02403> into
the depths <04688> of the sea <03220>.
20 Thou wilt perform <05414> the truth <0571> to Jacob <03290>,
[and] the mercy <02617> to Abraham <085>, which <0834> thou hast
sworn <07650> unto our fathers <01> from the days <03117> of old
<06924>.
