New Testament

Micah 7:11-20 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

11. It will be a day for building your walls. On that day will your boundary be extended.

12. It will be a day when they will come to you From Assyria and the cities of Egypt, From Egypt even to the Euphrates, Even from sea to sea and mountain to mountain.

13. And the earth will become desolate because of her inhabitants, On account of the fruit of their deeds.

14. Shepherd Your people with Your scepter, The flock of Your possession Which dwells by itself in the woodland, In the midst of a fruitful field. Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead As in the days of old.

15. "As in the days when you came out from the land of Egypt, I will show you miracles."

16. Nations will see and be ashamed Of all their might. They will put their hand on their mouth, Their ears will be deaf.

17. They will lick the dust like a serpent, Like reptiles of the earth. They will come trembling out of their fortresses; To the Lord our God they will come in dread And they will be afraid before You.

18. Who is a God like You, who pardons iniquity And passes over the rebellious act of the remnant of His possession? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in unchanging love.

19. He will again have compassion on us; He will tread our iniquities under foot. Yes, You will cast all their sins Into the depths of the sea.

20. You will give truth to Jacob And unchanging love to Abraham, Which You swore to our forefathers From the days of old.
