nkjv@Micah:3:5 @ Thus says the LORD concerning the prophets Who make my people stray; Who chant "Peace" While they chew with their teeth, But who prepare war against him Who puts nothing into their mouths:
nkjv@Micah:3:8 @ But truly I am full of power by the Spirit of the LORD, And of justice and might, To declare to Jacob his transgression And to Israel his sin.
nkjv@Micah:3:9 @ Now hear this, You heads of the house of Jacob And rulers of the house of Israel, Who abhor justice And pervert all equity,
nkjv@Micah:3:10 @ Who build up Zion with bloodshed And Jerusalem with iniquity:
nkjv@Micah:3:11 @ Her heads judge for a bribe, Her priests teach for pay, And her prophets divine for money. Yet they lean on the LORD, and say, "Is not the LORD among us? No harm can come upon us."
nkjv@Micah:3:12 @ Therefore because of you Zion shall be plowed like a field, Jerusalem shall become heaps of ruins, And the mountain of the temple Like the bare hills of the forest.
nkjv@Micah:4:1 @ Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the LORD's house Shall be established on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And peoples shall flow to it.
nkjv@Micah:4:2 @ Many nations shall come and say, "Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths." For out of Zion the law shall go forth, And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
nkjv@Micah:4:8 @ And you, O tower of the flock, The stronghold of the daughter of Zion, To you shall it come, Even the former dominion shall come, The kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem."
nkjv@Micah:5:1 @ Now gather yourself in troops, O daughter of troops; He has laid siege against us; They will strike the judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek.
nkjv@Micah:5:2 @ "But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, Though you are little among the thousands of Judah, Yet out of you shall come forth to Me The One to be Ruler in Israel, Whose goings forth are from of old, From everlasting."
nkjv@Micah:5:6 @ They shall waste with the sword the land of Assyria, And the land of Nimrod at its entrances; Thus He shall deliver us from the Assyrian, When he comes into our land And when he treads within our borders.
nkjv@Micah:5:14 @ I will pluck your wooden images from your midst; Thus I will destroy your cities.
nkjv@Micah:6:4 @ For I brought you up from the land of Egypt, I redeemed you from the house of bondage; And I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
nkjv@Micah:6:5 @ O My people, remember now What Balak king of Moab counseled, And what Balaam the son of Beor answered him, From Acacia Grove to Gilgal, That you may know the righteousness of the LORD."
nkjv@Micah:6:7 @ Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, Ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
nkjv@Micah:6:8 @ He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?
nkjv@Micah:6:10 @ Are there yet the treasures of wickedness In the house of the wicked, And the short measure that is an abomination?
nkjv@Micah:6:13 @ "Therefore I will also make you sick by striking you, By making you desolate because of your sins.
nkjv@Micah:6:16 @ For the statutes of Omri are kept; All the works of Ahab's house are done; And you walk in their counsels, That I may make you a desolation, And your inhabitants a hissing. Therefore you shall bear the reproach of My people."
nkjv@Micah:7:1 @ Woe is me! For I am like those who gather summer fruits, Like those who glean vintage grapes; There is no cluster to eat Of the first-ripe fruit which my soul desires.
nkjv@Micah:7:5 @ Do not trust in a friend; Do not put your confidence in a companion; Guard the doors of your mouth From her who lies in your bosom.
nkjv@Micah:7:6 @ For son dishonors father, Daughter rises against her mother, Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; A man's enemies are the men of his own household.
nkjv@Micah:7:9 @ I will bear the indignation of the LORD, Because I have sinned against Him, Until He pleads my case And executes justice for me. He will bring me forth to the light; I will see His righteousness.
nkjv@Micah:7:13 @ Yet the land shall be desolate Because of those who dwell in it, And for the fruit of their deeds.
nkjv@Micah:7:17 @ They shall lick the dust like a serpent; They shall crawl from their holes like snakes of the earth. They shall be afraid of the LORD our God, And shall fear because of You.
nkjv@Micah:7:18 @ Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy.
nkjv@Micah:7:19 @ He will again have compassion on us, And will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins Into the depths of the sea.
nkjv@Nahum:1:2 @ God is jealous, and the LORD avenges; The LORD avenges and is furious. The LORD will take vengeance on His adversaries, And He reserves wrath for His enemies;
nkjv@Nahum:1:3 @ The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, And will not at all acquit the wicked. The LORD has His way In the whirlwind and in the storm, And the clouds are the dust of His feet.
nkjv@Nahum:1:7 @ The LORD is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him.
nkjv@Nahum:1:12 @ Thus says the LORD: "Though they are safe, and likewise many, Yet in this manner they will be cut down When he passes through. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more;
nkjv@Nahum:1:14 @ The LORD has given a command concerning you: "Your name shall be perpetuated no longer. Out of the house of your gods I will cut off the carved image and the molded image. I will dig your grave, For you are vile."
nkjv@Nahum:3:4 @ Because of the multitude of harlotries of the seductive harlot, The mistress of sorceries, Who sells nations through her harlotries, And families through her sorceries.
nkjv@Nahum:3:15 @ There the fire will devour you, The sword will cut you off; It will eat you up like a locust. Make yourself many--like the locust! Make yourself many-- like the swarming locusts!
nkjv@Nahum:3:16 @ You have multiplied your merchants more than the stars of heaven. The locust plunders and flies away.
nkjv@Nahum:3:17 @ Your commanders are like swarming locusts, And your generals like great grasshoppers, Which camp in the hedges on a cold day; When the sun rises they flee away, And the place where they are is not known.
nkjv@Nahum:3:18 @ Your shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria; Your nobles rest in the dust. Your people are scattered on the mountains, And no one gathers them.
nkjv@Habakkuk:1:3 @ Why do You show me iniquity, And cause me to see trouble? For plundering and violence are before me; There is strife, and contention arises.
nkjv@Habakkuk:1:4 @ Therefore the law is powerless, And justice never goes forth. For the wicked surround the righteous; Therefore perverse judgment proceeds.
nkjv@Habakkuk:1:13 @ You are of purer eyes than to behold evil, And cannot look on wickedness. Why do You look on those who deal treacherously, And hold Your tongue when the wicked devours A person more righteous than he?
nkjv@Habakkuk:1:16 @ Therefore they sacrifice to their net, And burn incense to their dragnet; Because by them their share is sumptuous And their food plentiful.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:3 @ For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:4 @ "Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:5 @ "Indeed, because he transgresses by wine, He is a proud man, And he does not stay at home. Because he enlarges his desire as hell, And he is like death, and cannot be satisfied, He gathers to himself all nations And heaps up for himself all peoples.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:8 @ Because you have plundered many nations, All the remnant of the people shall plunder you, Because of men's blood And the violence of the land and the city, And of all who dwell in it.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:9 @ "Woe to him who covets evil gain for his house, That he may set his nest on high, That he may be delivered from the power of disaster!
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:10 @ You give shameful counsel to your house, Cutting off many peoples, And sin against your soul.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:17 @ For the violence done to Lebanon will cover you, And the plunder of beasts which made them afraid, Because of men's blood And the violence of the land and the city, And of all who dwell in it.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:18 @ "What profit is the image, that its maker should carve it, The molded image, a teacher of lies, That the maker of its mold should trust in it, To make mute idols?
nkjv@Habakkuk:3:7 @ I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; The curtains of the land of Midian trembled.

nkjv@Zephaniah:1:9 @ In the same day I will punish All those who leap over the threshold, Who fill their masters' houses with violence and deceit.
nkjv@Zephaniah:1:12 @ "And it shall come to pass at that time That I will search Jerusalem with lamps, And punish the men Who are settled in complacency, Who say in their heart, "The LORD will not do good, Nor will He do evil.'
nkjv@Zephaniah:1:13 @ Therefore their goods shall become booty, And their houses a desolation; They shall build houses, but not inhabit them; They shall plant vineyards, but not drink their wine."

nkjv@Zephaniah:2:3 @ Seek the LORD, all you meek of the earth, Who have upheld His justice. Seek righteousness, seek humility. It may be that you will be hidden In the day of the LORD's anger.
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:7 @ The coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; They shall feed their flocks there; In the houses of Ashkelon they shall lie down at evening. For the LORD their God will intervene for them, And return their captives.
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:10 @ This they shall have for their pride, Because they have reproached and made arrogant threats Against the people of the LORD of hosts.

nkjv@Zephaniah:3:2 @ She has not obeyed His voice, She has not received correction; She has not trusted in the LORD, She has not drawn near to her God.
nkjv@Zephaniah:3:4 @ Her prophets are insolent, treacherous people; Her priests have polluted the sanctuary, They have done violence to the law.
nkjv@Zephaniah:3:5 @ The LORD is righteous in her midst, He will do no unrighteousness. Every morning He brings His justice to light; He never fails, But the unjust knows no shame.
nkjv@Zephaniah:3:8 @ "Therefore wait for Me," says the LORD, "Until the day I rise up for plunder; My determination is to gather the nations To My assembly of kingdoms, To pour on them My indignation, All My fierce anger; All the earth shall be devoured With the fire of My jealousy.
