MICAH
[VII
- 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.
- Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of them that dwell therein,
- For the fruit of their doings.
- Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine heritage,
- Which dwell solitarily in the wood, in the midst of Carmel:
- Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
- According to the days of thy coming out of the land of Egypt
- Will I shew unto him marvellous things.
- The nations shall see and be confounded at all their might:
- They shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
- They shall lick the dust like a serpent,
- They shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth:
- They shall be afraid of the Lord our God,
- And shall fear because of thee.
- Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity,
- And passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage?
