jub - Micah:7

jub@Micah:7:1 @ Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer [fruits], as the grapegleanings of the vintage: [there is] no cluster to eat: my soul desired the firstripe fruit.

jub@Micah:7:2 @ The merciful [man] of the earth is missing: and [there is] no one upright among men: they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt each man his brother with a net.

jub@Micah:7:3 @ To complete the evil with their hands, the prince demands, and the judge [judges] for a reward; and the great [man] speaks the desires of his heart: and they confirm it.

jub@Micah:7:4 @ The best of them [is] as a brier; the most upright [as] a thorn hedge: the day of thy watchmen, thy visitation, comes; now shall be their confusion.

jub@Micah:7:5 @ Do not believe in a friend, do not trust in a prince; from her that lies at thy side, take care, open not thy mouth.

jub@Micah:7:6 @ For the son dishonours the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; and a man's enemies [are] those of his own house.

jub@Micah:7:7 @ Therefore I will wait for the LORD; I will wait for the God of my saving health; my God will hear me.

jub@Micah:7:8 @ Do not rejoice against me, O my enemy; for if I have fallen, I shall arise; if I sit in darkness, the LORD [is] my light.

jub@Micah:7:9 @ I will bear the indignation of the LORD because I have sinned against him, until he has judged my cause and executed my judgment; he will bring me forth to the light, [and] I shall behold his righteousness.

jub@Micah:7:10 @ Then [she that is] my enemy shall see [it], and shame shall cover her who said unto me, Where is the LORD thy God? my eyes shall behold her: now she shall be trodden down as the mire of the streets.

jub@Micah:7:11 @ In the day that thy walls shall be built unto thee, [in] that day shall the decree [of thy slavery] be far removed.

jub@Micah:7:12 @ [In] that day [also] he shall come even to thee from Assyria and [from] the fortified cities and from the fortress even to the river, and from sea to sea, and [from] mountain to mountain.

jub@Micah:7:13 @ And the land with those that dwell therein shall be made desolate, for the fruit of their doings.

jub@Micah:7:14 @ Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine heritage, which dwell only [in] the mountain, in the midst of Carmel; let them feed [in] Bashan and Gilead, as in the time of old.

jub@Micah:7:15 @ I will show you marvellous [things] as in the day when thou came out of Egypt.

jub@Micah:7:16 @ The Gentiles shall see and be ashamed at all thy mighty acts: they shall lay [their] hand upon [their] mouth, their ears shall become deaf.

jub@Micah:7:17 @ They shall lick the dust like a serpent; as the serpents of the earth, they shall tremble in their holes; they shall be filled with fear of the LORD our God and shall [also] fear thee.

jub@Micah:7:18 @ Who [is] a God like unto thee that pardons iniquity, and passes over the rebellion with the remnant of his heritage? He did not retain his anger for ever because he delights [in] mercy.

jub@Micah:7:19 @ He will turn again, he will have mercy on us; he will subdue our iniquities; and will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.

jub@Micah:7:20 @ Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob [and] the mercy to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the times of old.:
