Micah 7:12-20 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

12. that day when they come to you from Ashshur and the besieged cities of Mitsrayim, and from the siege to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.

13. But the earth shall become a waste because of those who dwell in it, and for the fruit of their deeds.

14. Shepherd Your people with Your rod, the flock of Your inheritance, who dwell alone in a forest, in the midst of Karmel. Let them feed in Bashan and Gil‛aḏ, as in days of old.

15. “As in the days when you came out of the land of Mitsrayim, I shall let him see wonders.”

16. Let the gentiles see and be ashamed of all their might, let them put their hand over their mouth, let their ears be deaf.

17. Let them lick the dust like a serpent, let them come trembling from their strongholds like snakes of the earth, let them be afraid of יהוה our Elohim and fear because of You.

18. Who is an Ěl like You – taking away crookedness and passing over the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance? He shall not retain His wrath forever, for He Himself delights in kindness.

19. He shall turn back, He shall have compassion on us, He shall trample upon our crookednesses! And You throw all our sins into the depths of the sea!

20. You give truth to Ya‛aqoḇ, kindness to Aḇraham, which You swore to our fathers from the days of old!
