Micah 7:10–20

¹⁰Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, “Where is the LORD your God?” My eyes will see her. Now she will be trodden down like the mire of the streets.↗

¹¹A day to build your walls! In that day, he will extend your boundary.↗

¹²In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.↗

¹³Yet the land will be desolate because of those who dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.↗

¹⁴Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your heritage, who dwell by themselves in a forest. Let them feed in the middle of fertile pasture land, in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.↗

¹⁵“As in the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things.”↗

¹⁶The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might. They will lay their hand on their mouth. Their ears will be deaf.↗

¹⁷They will lick the dust like a serpent. Like crawling things of the earth, they will come trembling out of their dens. They will come with fear to the LORD our God, and will be afraid because of you.↗

¹⁸Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn’t retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.↗

¹⁹He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities under foot. You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.↗

²⁰You will give truth to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.↗
