Hosea:1:1 @ The Word of the LORD that came to Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.
mkjv@Hosea:1:7 @ But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.
mkjv@Hosea:1:11 @ Then the sons of Judah and the sons of Israel shall be gathered together, and shall set over themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land. For great [shall be] the day of Jezreel.
mkjv@Hosea:4:15 @ Though you, Israel, fornicate, yet do not let Judah become guilty. And do not come [to] Gilgal, nor go up to Beth-aven, nor swear, [As] the LORD lives.
mkjv@Hosea:5:1 @ Hear this, O priests, and listen, house of Israel. And give ear, house of the king. For judgment [is] toward you, because you have been a snare on Mizpah and a net spread on Tabor.
mkjv@Hosea:5:5 @ And the pride of Israel testifies to his face. So Israel and Ephraim shall fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.
mkjv@Hosea:5:8 @ Blow the horn in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah; cry aloud at Beth-aven, after you, O Benjamin.
mkjv@Hosea:5:10 @ The rulers of Judah were like movers of a border; I will pour out My wrath on them like water.
mkjv@Hosea:5:12 @ Therefore I [am] as a moth to Ephraim, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
mkjv@Hosea:5:13 @ When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then Ephraim went to the Assyrian and sent to king Jareb. Yet he could not heal you nor cure you of your wound.
mkjv@Hosea:5:14 @ For I [will be] to Ephraim as a lion, and as a strong lion to the house of Judah. I, [even] I, will tear and go away. I will take away, and none shall rescue him.
mkjv@Hosea:6:4 @ O Ephraim, what shall I do to you? O Judah, what shall I do to you? For your goodness [is] like a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goes away.
mkjv@Hosea:6:11 @ Also, O Judah, a harvest is appointed to you, when I return the captivity of My people.
mkjv@Hosea:8:14 @ For Israel has forgotten his Maker, and builds temples. And Judah has multiplied cities. But I will send a fire on his cities, and it shall burn up her palaces.
mkjv@Hosea:9:9 @ They have deeply corrupted, as [in] days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity; He will punish their sins.
mkjv@Hosea:10:9 @ O Israel, you have sinned from the days of Gibeah. There they stood; the battle against the sons of iniquity did not overtake them in Gibeah.
mkjv@Hosea:10:11 @ And Ephraim [is] like a trained heifer, trying to tread out. But I passed over on the goodness of her neck. I will make Ephraim to ride; Judah shall plow, and Jacob shall break his clods.
mkjv@Hosea:11:8 @ How shall I give you up, Ephraim? How shall I deliver you, Israel? How shall I make you like Admah? How shall I set you as Zeboim? My heart is turned within Me; My compassions are kindled together.
mkjv@Hosea:11:12 @ Ephraim [circles] around Me with lying, and the house of Israel with deceit. But Judah still rules with God, and is faithful with the saints.
mkjv@Hosea:12:2 @ The LORD also has a quarrel with Judah and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings He will repay him.
mkjv@Hosea:12:5 @ even the LORD God of hosts. Jehovah [is] his memorial.
mkjv@Joel:3:1 @ For, behold, in those days and in that time, [when] I will bring again the exiles of Judah and Jerusalem,
mkjv@Joel:3:6 @ You have also sold the sons of Judah and the sons of Jerusalem to the sons of the Greeks, that you might remove them far from their border.
mkjv@Joel:3:8 @ And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off; for the LORD has spoken it.
mkjv@Joel:3:18 @ And it shall be, in that day the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow [with] milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow [with] waters; and a fountain shall come forth from the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
mkjv@Joel:3:19 @ Egypt shall be a ruin, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, from violence [done] to the sons of Judah, whose innocent blood they poured out in their land.
mkjv@Joel:3:20 @ But Judah will dwell forever, and Jerusalem to generation and generation.
mkjv@Amos:1:1 @ The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa; the word which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
mkjv@Amos:1:12 @ But I will send a fire upon Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
mkjv@Amos:1:14 @ But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour its palaces with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind.
mkjv@Amos:2:4 @ So says the LORD: For three transgressions of Judah, yea for four, I will not turn away [from] it; because they have despised the laws of the LORD, and have not kept His commandments. And their lies after which their fathers walked led them astray.
mkjv@Amos:2:5 @ But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
mkjv@Amos:3:7 @ For the Lord Jehovah will do nothing unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
mkjv@Amos:3:8 @ The lion has roared; who will not fear? The Lord Jehovah has spoken; who will not prophesy?
mkjv@Amos:3:11 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: An enemy! And he [shall be] all around the land; and he shall bring you down from your strength, and your palaces shall be plundered.
mkjv@Amos:3:13 @ Hear and testify in the house of Jacob, says the Lord Jehovah, the God of hosts,
mkjv@Amos:4:2 @ The Lord Jehovah has sworn by His holiness that the days shall come on you that He will lift you up with meat hooks, and your sons with fishhooks.
mkjv@Amos:4:5 @ and offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving from that [which is] leavened, and cry out; call out the voluntary offerings! For so you love [to do], O sons of Israel, says the Lord Jehovah.
mkjv@Amos:4:11 @ I have overthrown some among you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a firebrand plucked out of the burning; yet you have not returned to Me, says the LORD.
mkjv@Amos:5:3 @ For thus says the Lord Jehovah: The city that went out [by] a thousand shall leave a hundred, and that which went out [by] a hundred shall have ten left in the house of Israel.
mkjv@Amos:5:15 @ Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate. It may be that the Lord Jehovah of hosts will be gracious [to] the remnant of Joseph.
mkjv@Amos:6:8 @ The Lord Jehovah has sworn by Himself, says the LORD, the God of hosts: I despise the glory of Jacob, and hate his palaces; and I will shut up the city and all its fullness.
mkjv@Amos:6:10 @ And a man's uncle shall take him up, and he who burns him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say to [him] left in the recesses of the house, Are any still with you? And he shall say, No. Then he shall say, Hush! For not one shall mention the name of Jehovah.
mkjv@Amos:6:14 @ But behold, I will raise a nation up against you, O house of Israel, says the Lord, the God of hosts. And they shall oppress you from the entrance to Hamath to the torrent of the Arabah.
mkjv@Amos:7:1 @ The Lord Jehovah made me see this: And behold, He is forming locusts at the beginning of the coming up of the late grass; even behold, the late grass after the king's mowings.
mkjv@Amos:7:2 @ And it happened when it had made an end of eating the tender plant of the land, then I said, O Lord Jehovah, forgive, I pray You. How can Jacob stand? For he [is] small.
mkjv@Amos:7:4 @ The Lord Jehovah made me see this: And behold, the Lord Jehovah was calling to contend by fire. And it consumed the great deep, and [it was] devouring part of it.
mkjv@Amos:7:5 @ Then I said, O Lord Jehovah, I pray You, cease. How can Jacob stand? For he [is] small.
mkjv@Amos:7:6 @ The LORD repented for this; this also shall not be, says the Lord Jehovah.
mkjv@Amos:7:10 @ Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos has plotted against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is not able to bear all his words.
mkjv@Amos:7:12 @ And Amaziah said to Amos, O seer, go, flee for yourself into the land of Judah; and eat bread there, and prophesy there.
mkjv@Amos:7:14 @ Then Amos answered and said to Amaziah: I [was] no prophet, nor [was] I a prophet's son. But I [was] a herdsman and a gatherer [from] sycamore trees.
mkjv@Amos:8:1 @ The Lord Jehovah made me see this: And behold, a basket of summer fruit!
mkjv@Amos:8:3 @ And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, says the Lord Jehovah. The dead bodies [shall be] many. In every place one shall throw [them] out, saying, Hush!
mkjv@Amos:8:5 @ saying, When will the new moon be gone so that we may sell grain? And the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small and the shekel great, and perverting the balances by deceit;
mkjv@Amos:8:9 @ And it shall be in that day, says the Lord Jehovah, I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the light of day.
mkjv@Amos:8:11 @ Behold, the days come, says the Lord Jehovah, that I will send a famine in the land; not [a famine] of bread nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD.
mkjv@Amos:9:5 @ And the Lord Jehovah of hosts [is] He who touches the land, and it shall melt, and all who dwell in it shall mourn. And all of it shall rise up like the Nile, and sink down like the Nile of Egypt.
mkjv@Amos:9:8 @ Behold, the eyes of the Lord Jehovah [are] on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from the face of the earth; except that I will not completely destroy the house of Jacob, says the LORD.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:1 @ The vision of Obadiah. So says the Lord God concerning Edom: We have heard a message from the LORD, and a messenger is sent among the nations: Rise up, even let us rise up against her for battle.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:2 @ Behold, I have given you [to be] small among the nations; you are greatly despised.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:3 @ The pride of your heart has deceived you, dwelling in the clefts of the rock, his dwelling [is] lofty; saying in his heart, Who shall bring me down [to] the ground?
mkjv@Obadiah:1:4 @ Though you rise high like the eagle, and though [you] set your nest between the stars, I will bring you down from there, says the LORD.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:5 @ If thieves came to you, if destroyers by night (how you have been cut off!), would they not have stolen until they had enough? If the grape-gatherers came to you, would they not leave gleanings?
mkjv@Obadiah:1:6 @ How Esau is searched out! His hidden things are sought out!
mkjv@Obadiah:1:7 @ All the men of your covenant have dismissed you to the border; the men who were at peace with you have deceived you, [and] have overcome you. They are setting your bread as a snare under you; [there is] no understanding in them.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:8 @ Shall I not in that day even destroy the wise out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau, says the LORD?
mkjv@Obadiah:1:9 @ And your mighty ones, O] Teman, shall be afraid, so that each man from the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:10 @ Shame shall cover you from the violence against your brother Jacob, and you shall be cut off forever.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:11 @ On the day of your standing on the other [side], on the day that the strangers were capturing his force, and foreigners entered his gates and cast lots for Jerusalem, even you [were] like one of them.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:12 @ But you should not have looked on the day of your brother on the day of his alienation; nor should you have rejoiced over the sons of Judah in the day of their ruin; nor should you have enlarged your mouth in the day of distress.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:13 @ You should not have entered into the gate of My people in the day of their calamity; also, you should not have looked on his evil in the day of their calamity. Nor should you have sent out against his force in the day of his calamity.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:14 @ Nor should you have stood on the crossways to cut off those of him who escaped; nor should you have shut up his survivors in the day of distress.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:15 @ For the day of the LORD [is] near on all the nations; as you have done, it shall be done to you. Your reward shall return upon your head.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:16 @ For as you have drunk upon My holy mountain, [so] all the nations shall drink forever. Yes, they shall drink, and they shall swallow, and they shall be as [though] they had not been.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:17 @ But upon Mount Zion shall be those who escaped; and it shall be holy. And the house of Jacob shall possess their own possessions.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:18 @ And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame. And the house of Esau [shall be] for stubble. And they shall kindle in them and burn them up. And no survivor shall be to the house of Esau; for the LORD has spoken it.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:19 @ And [those of] the south shall possess the mountain of Esau and the low country of the Philistines. And they shall possess the fields of Ephraim and the fields of Samaria; and Benjamin [shall possess] Gilead.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:20 @ And the exiles of this army [shall go] to the sons of Israel who shall possess [the land] of the Canaanites to Zarephath; even the exiles of Jerusalem who [are] in Sepharad shall possess the cities of the south.
mkjv@Obadiah:1:21 @ And deliverers shall go up into the mountain of Zion to judge the mountain of Esau; and the kingdom shall be to the LORD.
mkjv@Jonah:1:1 @ And the Word of Jehovah came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
mkjv@Jonah:1:2 @ Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their evil has come up before Me.
mkjv@Jonah:1:3 @ But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of Jehovah. And he went down to Joppa. And he found a ship going to Tarshish. And he gave its fare, and went down into it, in order to go with them to Tarshish, away from the sight of Jehovah.
mkjv@Jonah:1:4 @ But Jehovah hurled a great wind into the sea, and there was a great storm in the sea, so that the ship [was] thought to be broken.
mkjv@Jonah:1:5 @ Then the seamen were afraid, and each man cried to his god. And they threw out the [ship's] articles in the ship, into the sea in order to lighten [it]. But Jonah had gone down into the hold of the ship; and he lay there, and was fast asleep.
mkjv@Jonah:1:6 @ And the chief of the seaman came to him and said to him, What [is it] to you, O sound sleeper? Arise, call upon your God! It may be that our god will notice us, and we will not perish.
mkjv@Jonah:1:7 @ And they said, each one to his fellow, Come and let us cast lots, so that we may know who has caused this evil [to occur] to us. And they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.
mkjv@Jonah:1:8 @ Then they said to him, Please tell us, for what reason this evil [has come] on us. What is your business? And where do you come from? Where [is] your country? And of what people [are] you?
mkjv@Jonah:1:9 @ And he said to them, I [am] a Hebrew; and I fear Jehovah, the God of heaven, who has made the sea and the dry land.
mkjv@Jonah:1:10 @ Then the men were afraid [with] a great fear. And they said to him, What is this you have done? For the men knew that he was fleeing from before the face of Jehovah, because he had told them.
mkjv@Jonah:1:11 @ Then they said to him, What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us? For the sea was going on and being stormy.
mkjv@Jonah:1:12 @ And he said to them, Take me up and throw me out into the sea. And the sea shall be calm to you; for I know that this great storm [has come] on you for my sake.
mkjv@Jonah:1:13 @ But the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but they could not, for the sea was going on and being stormy against them.
mkjv@Jonah:1:14 @ And they cried to Jehovah and said, We beg You, O Jehovah, we beg You, let us not perish for this man's life, and do not lay on us innocent blood. For You, O Jehovah, have done as it pleased You.
mkjv@Jonah:1:15 @ And they lifted Jonah up and threw him out into the sea; and the sea ceased from its raging.
mkjv@Jonah:1:16 @ Then the men feared Jehovah exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice to Jehovah, and vowed vows.
mkjv@Jonah:1:17 @ And Jehovah had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
mkjv@Jonah:2:1 @ And Jonah prayed to Jehovah his God out of the fish's belly,
mkjv@Jonah:2:2 @ and he said, I cried to Jehovah from my distress. And He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol I cried for help, [and] You heard my voice.
mkjv@Jonah:2:3 @ For You cast me [into the] depths of the seas, and the current surrounded me. All Your breakers and Your waves passed over me.
mkjv@Jonah:2:4 @ Then I said, I am cast off from Your eyes, yet I will look again toward Your holy temple.
mkjv@Jonah:2:5 @ Waters encompassed me, [even] to the soul; the depth closed around me; the seaweed was bound to my head.
mkjv@Jonah:2:6 @ I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was around me forever; yet You have brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.
mkjv@Jonah:2:7 @ When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah; and my prayer came in to You, into Your holy temple.
mkjv@Jonah:2:8 @ They who take heed to lying vanities forsake their kindness;
mkjv@Jonah:2:9 @ but I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving; I will fulfill that which I have vowed. Salvation [belongs] to Jehovah!
mkjv@Jonah:2:10 @ And Jehovah spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out on the dry land.
mkjv@Jonah:3:1 @ And the Word of Jehovah came to Jonah the second time, saying,
mkjv@Jonah:3:2 @ Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out to it the proclamation that I am declaring to you.
mkjv@Jonah:3:3 @ And Jonah arose and went to Nineveh, according to the Word of Jehovah. And Nineveh was a very great city of three days' journey.
mkjv@Jonah:3:4 @ And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried and said, Yet forty days and Nineveh shall be overthrown!
mkjv@Jonah:3:5 @ And the people of Nineveh believed God. And they called a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.
mkjv@Jonah:3:6 @ For word came to the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne. And he laid his robe from him, and covered himself [with] sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
mkjv@Jonah:3:7 @ And he cried out and said in Nineveh by the decree of the king and his great ones, saying, Do not let man or beast, herd or flock taste anything; do not let them feed, nor drink water.
mkjv@Jonah:3:8 @ But let man and animal be covered [with] sackcloth, and cry mightily to God. And let them each one turn from his evil way, and from the violence that [is] in their hands.
mkjv@Jonah:3:9 @ Who knows? He may repent, and God may have pity and turn away from the glow of His anger, so that we do not perish.
mkjv@Jonah:3:10 @ And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way. And God was compassionate over the evil that He had said to do to them, and He did not do [it].
mkjv@Jonah:4:1 @ But it [was] a great calamity in Jonah's sight, and it kindled [anger] in him.
mkjv@Jonah:4:2 @ And he prayed to Jehovah and said, Please, O Jehovah, [was] this not my saying when I was still in my land? On account of this I fled before to Tarshish. For I knew that You [are] a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and One who repents over calamity.
mkjv@Jonah:4:3 @ And now, O Jehovah, I beseech You, take my life from me. For better [is] my death than my life.
mkjv@Jonah:4:4 @ And Jehovah said, Is anger rightly kindled in you?
mkjv@Jonah:4:5 @ And Jonah went out of the city and sat on the east of the city. And he made himself a booth there and sat under it in the shade, until he might see what would happen in the city.
mkjv@Jonah:4:6 @ And Jehovah God prepared a plant, and it came up over Jonah, to be shade over his head, in order to deliver him from his misery. And Jonah rejoiced [with] great joy over the plant.
mkjv@Jonah:4:7 @ But God prepared a worm as the morning dawned the next day. And it struck the plant, and it withered.
mkjv@Jonah:4:8 @ And it happened when the sun shone, God ordained a scorching east wind. And the sun beat on the head of Jonah, so that he fainted. And he asked for his life to die. And he said, Better [is] my death than my life.
mkjv@Jonah:4:9 @ And God said to Jonah, Is your anger rightly kindled over the plant? And he said, My anger is rightly kindled, [even] to death.
mkjv@Jonah:4:10 @ And Jehovah said, You have had pity on the plant, for which you had not labored, nor made it grow, which was a son of a night, and perished the son of a night.
mkjv@Jonah:4:11 @ And should I not spare Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than a hundred and twenty thousand men who do not know between [their] right [and their] left hand, besides much cattle?
mkjv@Micah:1:1 @ The Word of the LORD that came to Micah the Morasthite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
mkjv@Micah:1:2 @ Hear, all you people; listen, O earth, and its fullness. And let the Lord GOD be witness against you, the Lord from His holy temple.
mkjv@Micah:1:3 @ For behold, the LORD [is] coming out of His place, and will come down and walk on the high places of the earth.
mkjv@Micah:1:4 @ And the mountains shall melt under Him, and the valleys shall tear themselves, as wax before the fire, and as waters poured down a steep place.
mkjv@Micah:1:5 @ All this [is] for the transgression of Jacob, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What [is] the transgression of Jacob? [Is it] not Samaria? And what [are] the high places of Judah? [Are they] not Jerusalem?
mkjv@Micah:1:6 @ And I will make Samaria into ruins of the field, planting places for a vineyard; and I will pour down her stones into the valley, and I will uncover her foundations.
mkjv@Micah:1:7 @ And all her graven images shall be beaten to pieces, and all her gifts shall be burned with the fire, and I will destroy all its idols. For she gathered it from the reward of a harlot, and they shall return to the reward of a harlot.
mkjv@Micah:1:8 @ Therefore I will wail and howl; I will go stripped and naked; I will make a wailing like jackals, mourn like the daughters of an ostrich.
mkjv@Micah:1:9 @ For her wounds [are] not curable; for it has come to Judah; it has reached to the gate of My people, to Jerusalem.
mkjv@Micah:1:10 @ Do not declare [it] in Gath; weep not at all; in the house of Leaphrah roll [in] the dust.
mkjv@Micah:1:11 @ Pass over to them, O dweller of Shaphir, in nakedness of shame. The dweller of Zaanan has not gone out; the mourning of Beth-ezel shall take from you his standing.
mkjv@Micah:1:12 @ For be grieved for good, the dweller of Maroth, for evil came down from the LORD to the gate of Jerusalem.
mkjv@Micah:1:13 @ O inhabitant of Lachish, bind the chariot to the stallion; she [is] the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion, for the sins of Israel were found in you.
mkjv@Micah:1:14 @ Therefore you shall give parting gifts to Moresheth-gath; the houses of Achzib [are] for a lying thing to the kings of Israel.
mkjv@Micah:1:15 @ Yet I will bring an heir to you, O dweller of Mareshah. The glory of Israel shall come to Adullam.
mkjv@Micah:1:16 @ Make yourself bald, and cut off [your hair] for the sons of your delight; make your baldness large like the eagle; for they go into exile from you.
mkjv@Micah:2:1 @ Woe to those who plot wickedness and prepare evil on their beds! When the morning is light they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.
mkjv@Micah:2:2 @ And they covet and seize fields; and houses, and take them away. And they oppress a man and his household, even a man and his inheritance.
mkjv@Micah:2:3 @ So the LORD says this: Behold, against this family I [am] plotting an evil from which you shall not remove your necks; nor shall you go proudly, but it [is] an evil time.
mkjv@Micah:2:4 @ In that day one shall take up a parable against you and mourn a mourning of mournings, saying, We shall be completely laid waste. He has exchanged the share of my people. How He has removed [it] from me! To the apostate He has divided our fields.
mkjv@Micah:2:5 @ Therefore there shall not be for you one casting a line by lot in the congregation of the LORD.
mkjv@Micah:2:6 @ Do not drop [words] as they drop! They shall not drop [words] about these; they shall not draw back reproaches.
mkjv@Micah:2:7 @ House of Jacob, [it is] said, The Spirit of the LORD is limited, if these [are] His doings. Do not My words do good to him who walks uprightly?
mkjv@Micah:2:8 @ Even yesterday, My people has risen up like an enemy; you strip off a cloak along with an outer robe, from those who pass by trustingly, those returning [from] war.
mkjv@Micah:2:9 @ You have thrown the wives of My people out from the house of her delight; from their children you have taken away My majesty forever.
mkjv@Micah:2:10 @ Arise and depart! For this [is] not [your] rest, because of destroying uncleanness, even a grievous destruction.
mkjv@Micah:2:11 @ If a man walks with wind and lies falsely, saying, I will drop [words] to you for wine and for strong drink, he shall even be a dropper [of words] for this people.
mkjv@Micah:2:12 @ I will surely gather all of you, O Jacob; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel. I will put them together like the sheep of Bozrah, like the flock in the midst of their fold. They shall be in commotion because of men.
mkjv@Micah:2:13 @ The breaker has come up before them; they have broken up, and have passed through the gate, and have gone out of it. And their king shall pass before them, and the LORD at the head of them.
mkjv@Micah:3:1 @ And I said, Please hear, O heads of Jacob and magistrates of the house of Israel. [Is it] not for you to know justice?
mkjv@Micah:3:2 @ You who hate the good and love the evil; who pull their skin off them, and their flesh from their bones;
mkjv@Micah:3:3 @ who also eat the flesh of My people, and strip their skin off them. And they break their bones and chop them in pieces, like that in the pot, like those in the middle of the kettle.
mkjv@Micah:3:4 @ Then they shall cry to the LORD, but He will not answer them. He will even hide His face from them at that time, as they have done evil in their doings.
mkjv@Micah:3:5 @ So says the LORD concerning the prophets who make My people err, who bite with their teeth and cry, Peace! And whoever does not give for their mouth, they even sanctify a war against him.
mkjv@Micah:3:6 @ Therefore a night shall be to you [without] vision; and darkness [without] divining. And the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
mkjv@Micah:3:7 @ And the seers shall be ashamed, and the diviners ashamed; yea, they shall all cover their mustache, for [there is] no answer [from] God.
mkjv@Micah:3:8 @ But I am full of power by the Spirit of the LORD, and justice, and might, to declare to Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.
mkjv@Micah:3:9 @ Please hear this, heads of the house of Jacob, and magistrates of the house of Israel, who hate justice and pervert all equity.
mkjv@Micah:3:10 @ They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
mkjv@Micah:3:11 @ Her heads judge for a bribe, and her priests teach for pay, and her prophets divine for silver, yet they will lean on the LORD and say, [Is] not the LORD among us? No evil can come on us!
mkjv@Micah:3:12 @ Therefore, on account of you, Zion shall be plowed [as] a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house into high places of the forest.
mkjv@Micah:4:1 @ But it shall be in the last days the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be lifted up above the hills; and peoples shall flow to it.
mkjv@Micah:4:2 @ And many nations shall come and say, Come and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob. And He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths; for the law shall go forth out of Zion, and the Word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
mkjv@Micah:4:3 @ And He shall judge between many peoples, and will decide for strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, And they shall not still learn war.
mkjv@Micah:4:4 @ But they shall sit each one under his vine and under his fig tree; and there shall be no trembling; for the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken,
mkjv@Micah:4:5 @ For all peoples will walk, [each] one in the name of his god; and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God forever and ever.
mkjv@Micah:4:6 @ In that day, says the LORD, I will gather the lame, and I will gather the banished, and the one I have afflicted.
mkjv@Micah:4:7 @ And I will make the lame into a remnant, and her who was cast off a strong nation; and the LORD shall reign over them in Mount Zion from now on, even forever.
mkjv@Micah:4:8 @ And you, O tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, to you it shall happen. And rulers, the chief ones, shall come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
mkjv@Micah:4:9 @ Now why do you cry aloud? Is there no king among you? Has your counselor perished? For pangs have taken you like one giving birth.
mkjv@Micah:4:10 @ Be in pain and deliver, daughter of Zion, like one giving birth. For now you shall go out from the city, and you shall dwell in the field; and you shall go to Babylon. There you shall be snatched back; there the LORD shall redeem you from the hand of your enemies.
mkjv@Micah:4:11 @ Now also many nations are gathered against you, who say, Let her be defiled, and let our eyes look on Zion.
mkjv@Micah:4:12 @ But they do not know the plans of the LORD, nor do they understand His counsel. For He has gathered them like the sheaf to the floor.
mkjv@Micah:4:13 @ Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion; for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs bronze; and you shall crush many peoples. And I will give their gain to the LORD, and their wealth to the Lord of the all the earth.
mkjv@Micah:5:1 @ Now gather yourself in troops, daughter of a troop; one sets a siege against us; they shall strike the Judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek.
mkjv@Micah:5:2 @ And you, Bethlehem Ephratah, you being least among the thousands of Judah, out of you He shall come forth to Me, to become Ruler in Israel, He whose goings forth [have been] from of old, from the days of eternity.
mkjv@Micah:5:3 @ Therefore He will give them over until the time the one giving birth has given birth; then the rest of His brothers shall return to the sons of Israel.
mkjv@Micah:5:4 @ And He shall stand and feed in the strength of Jehovah, in the majesty of the name of Jehovah His God. And they shall sit, for now He shall be great to the ends of the earth.
mkjv@Micah:5:5 @ And this [One] shall be peace. When Assyria shall come into our land; and when he shall walk in our palaces, then we shall raise against him seven shepherds and eight anointed ones from men.
mkjv@Micah:5:6 @ And they shall mar the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod at her own entrances. And He shall deliver us from Assyria when he comes into our land, and when he treads within our border.
mkjv@Micah:5:7 @ And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many peoples, as dew from the LORD, as showers on a blade of the grass, which does not wait for man, nor delay for the sons of men.
mkjv@Micah:5:8 @ And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, like a lion among the beasts of the forest, like a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he goes through, both tramples and tears in pieces. And there is none to snatch back.
mkjv@Micah:5:9 @ Your hand shall be high above your foes, and all your enemies shall be cut off.
mkjv@Micah:5:10 @ And it shall be in that day, says the LORD, I will cut off your horses out of your midst, and I will destroy your chariots.
mkjv@Micah:5:11 @ And I will cut off the cities of your land, and throw down all your strongholds.
mkjv@Micah:5:12 @ And I will cut off sorceries out of your hand, and there shall not be fortune-tellers among you.
mkjv@Micah:5:13 @ I will also cut off your graven images, and your pillars out of the midst of you; and you shall never again worship the work of your hands.
mkjv@Micah:5:14 @ And I will pluck your shrines out of the midst of you; so I will destroy your cities.
mkjv@Micah:5:15 @ And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury [on] the nations, such as they have not heard.
mkjv@Micah:6:1 @ Hear now what the LORD says: Arise, contend with the mountains and let the hills hear your voice.
mkjv@Micah:6:2 @ Mountains, hear the LORD's case, and the constant foundations of the earth. For the LORD has a quarrel with His people, and He will plead His case with Israel.
mkjv@Micah:6:3 @ O My people, what have I done to you? And in what have I made you weary? Testify against Me!
mkjv@Micah:6:4 @ For I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of slaves; and I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam before you.
mkjv@Micah:6:5 @ O My people, remember now what Balak king of Moab planned, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you may know the righteousness acts of the LORD.
mkjv@Micah:6:6 @ With what shall I come before the LORD, [to] bow myself before God the Most High? Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?
mkjv@Micah:6:7 @ Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my first-born for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
mkjv@Micah:6:8 @ He has shown you, O man, what [is] good. And what does the LORD require of you but to do justice and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God?
mkjv@Micah:6:9 @ The LORD's voice cries to the city, and in sound wisdom one will see Your name. Hear the rod and [Him] who has appointed it.
mkjv@Micah:6:10 @ Are the treasures of wickedness still in the house of the wicked, and the short measure that is hateful?
mkjv@Micah:6:11 @ Shall I count [those] with the wicked scales pure, and those with the bag of deceitful weights?
mkjv@Micah:6:12 @ [For] its rich men are full of violence, and its people have spoken lies, and their tongue [is] deceitful in their mouth.
mkjv@Micah:6:13 @ Therefore I also have made [you] sick by striking you, laying [you] waste because of your sins.
mkjv@Micah:6:14 @ You shall eat, but not be satisfied; and your casting down [shall be] in your midst. And you shall take hold, but shall not deliver; and that which you deliver I will give up to the sword.
mkjv@Micah:6:15 @ You shall sow, but you shall not reap; you shall tread the olives, but you shall not anoint yourself with oil; and sweet wine, but shall not drink wine.
mkjv@Micah:6:16 @ For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and you walk in their counsels, so that I should make you a ruin and its people a hissing; therefore you shall bear the shame of My people.
mkjv@Micah:7:1 @ Woe is me! For I am like the gatherings of summer fruits, like the grape-gleanings of the vintage. There is no cluster to eat; my soul desires the first-ripe fruit.
mkjv@Micah:7:2 @ The pious has perished from the earth, and there is none upright among men. For they all lie in wait for blood; each one hunts his brother [with] a net.
mkjv@Micah:7:3 @ Both hands [are] on evil, to do [it] well. The ruler asks for a bribe, and the judge also; and the great man speaks the evil desire of his soul. So they weave it together.
mkjv@Micah:7:4 @ The best of them [is] like a briar; the most upright [is sharper] than a hedge of thorns. The day of your watchmen [and] your punishment comes; now their shame shall come.
mkjv@Micah:7:5 @ Put no trust in a friend; put no hope in a guide; keep the door of your mouth from her who lies [in] your bosom.
mkjv@Micah:7:6 @ For the son dishonors the father; the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man's enemies are the men of his own household.
mkjv@Micah:7:7 @ Therefore I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me!
mkjv@Micah:7:8 @ Rejoice not against me, my enemy; for [if] I fall, I shall arise; for [if] I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light to me.
mkjv@Micah:7:9 @ I will bear the fury of the LORD, because I have sinned against Him, until He pleads my cause and brings out judgment for me. He will bring me out to the light, and I shall behold His righteousness.
mkjv@Micah:7:10 @ Then my enemy shall see it; and shame shall cover her who said to me, Where is the LORD your God? My eyes shall behold her; now she shall be trampled like the mud of the streets.
mkjv@Micah:7:11 @ [In] the day that your walls are to be built, in that day the decree shall be far removed.
mkjv@Micah:7:12 @ [In] that day he shall come even to you from Assyria, and from the fortified cities, and from the siege even to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain [to] mountain.
mkjv@Micah:7:13 @ But the land shall be wasted because of those who dwell in it, for the fruit of their doings.
mkjv@Micah:7:14 @ Feed your people with your rod, the flock of your inheritance, who dwell alone in the woods, in the midst of Carmel; let them feed [in] Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
mkjv@Micah:7:15 @ According to the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt I will show to him marvelous things.
mkjv@Micah:7:16 @ The nations shall see and be ashamed at all their might; they shall lay their hand on [their] mouth; their ears shall be deaf.
mkjv@Micah:7:17 @ They shall lick the dust like a snake; they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth. They shall dread the LORD our God, and shall fear because of You.
mkjv@Micah:7:18 @ Who [is] a God like You, who pardons iniquity and passes by the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not keep His anger forever, because He delights [in] mercy.
mkjv@Micah:7:19 @ He will turn again; He will have pity on us. He will trample our iniquities. Yea, You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
mkjv@Micah:7:20 @ You will give faithfulness to Jacob, mercy to Abraham, which You have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
mkjv@Nahum:1:1 @ The burden against Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
mkjv@Nahum:1:2 @ God [is] jealous, and the LORD revenges; the LORD revenges and is a possessor of wrath. The LORD takes vengeance against His foes, and He keeps [wrath] against His enemies.
mkjv@Nahum:1:3 @ The LORD [is] slow to anger, and great in power. And He does not by any means acquit the guilty. The LORD [has] His way in the tempest and in the storm, and the clouds [are] the dust of His feet.
mkjv@Nahum:1:4 @ He rebukes the sea and makes it dry, and dries up all the rivers; Bashan and Carmel wither, and the flower of Lebanon withers.
mkjv@Nahum:1:5 @ The mountains quake from Him, and the hills melt, and the earth is lifted up from before Him; even the world and all who dwell in it.
mkjv@Nahum:1:6 @ Who can stand before His fury? And who can stand up in the heat of His anger? His fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken down because of Him.
mkjv@Nahum:1:7 @ The LORD [is] good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and He knows those who trust in Him.
mkjv@Nahum:1:8 @ But with an overflowing flood He will make an utter end of its place, and darkness shall pursue His enemies.
mkjv@Nahum:1:9 @ What are you plotting against the LORD? He will make an utter end; affliction shall not rise up the second time.
mkjv@Nahum:1:10 @ For as thorns are woven together, and as their drunkards are drunken, they shall be devoured like stubble fully dry.
mkjv@Nahum:1:11 @ One who devises evil against the LORD has come forth from you, one counseling worthlessness.
mkjv@Nahum:1:12 @ So says the LORD: Though secure and likewise many, yet they shall be cut down, and he shall pass away. And though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more.
mkjv@Nahum:1:13 @ For now I will break his yoke off you, and will burst your bonds apart.
mkjv@Nahum:1:14 @ And the LORD has commanded concerning you, Not [one] of your name shall be sown any more; I will cut off the graven image and the molten image out of the house of your gods. I will make your grave; for you are despised.
mkjv@Nahum:1:15 @ Behold upon the mountains the feet of Him who brings good news, making it heard, Peace! O Judah, keep your appointed feasts, fulfill your vows; for the wicked shall pass through you no more; he is completely cut off.
mkjv@Nahum:2:1 @ The scattering one is coming up against your face. Guard the rampart. Watch the way, make your loins strong, firm up [your] power mightily.
mkjv@Nahum:2:2 @ For the LORD has turned away the glory of Jacob, as the glory of Israel. For the plunderers have plundered them, and have destroyed their vine branches.
mkjv@Nahum:2:3 @ The shield of his mighty ones has become red; the mighty men [are] in scarlet; the chariots flame like iron torches in the day of his preparation. And the cypresses are made to quiver.
mkjv@Nahum:2:4 @ The chariots race madly in the streets; they shall run to and fro in the open squares. Their appearance [is] like torches; they dart about like lightnings.
mkjv@Nahum:2:5 @ He shall remember his nobles; they shall stumble in their walking; they shall make haste to its wall, and the covering shall be prepared.
mkjv@Nahum:2:6 @ The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace shall be melted.
