Micah:4:6-13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
In that day ,
says LORD ,
I will assemble that which is lame ,
and I will gather that which is driven away ,
and that which I have afflicted .
*
And I will make that which was lame a remnant ,
and that which was cast far off a strong nation .
And LORD will reign over them in mount Zion from henceforth even forever .
*
And thou ,
O tower of the flock ,
the hill of the daughter of Zion ,
to thee it shall come .
Yea ,
the former dominion shall come ,
the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem .
*
Now why do thou cry out aloud ?
Is there no king in thee .
Has thy counselor perished ,
that pangs have taken hold of thee as of a woman in travail ?
*
Be in pain ,
and labor to bring forth ,
O daughter of Zion ,
like a woman in travail .
For now thou shall go forth out of the city ,
and shall dwell in the field ,
and shall come even to Babylon .
There thou shall be rescued .
There LORD w
*
And now many nations are assembled against thee ,
who say ,
Let her be defiled ,
and let our eye see [
our desire ]
upon Zion .
*
But they know not the thoughts of LORD ,
nor do they understand his counsel ,
for he has gathered them as the sheaves to the threshing-floor .
*
Arise and thresh ,
O daughter of Zion ,
for I will make thy horn iron ,
and I will make thy hoofs brass ,
and thou shall beat many peoples in pieces .
And I will devote their gain to LORD ,
and their substance to LORD of the whole earth .
