Micah 7:12

Verse 12 of 20. The 7th of 7 chapters in Micah, in The Minor Prophets.

8Don’t rejoice against me, my enemy. When I fall, I will arise. When I sit in darkness, the LORD will be a light to me.

9I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my case and executes judgment for me. He will bring me out to the light. I will see his righteousness.

10Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, “Where is the LORD your God?” My eyes will see her. Now she will be trodden down like the mire of the streets.

11A day to build your walls! In that day, he will extend your boundary.

12In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.

13Yet the land will be desolate because of those who dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.

14Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your heritage, who dwell by themselves in a forest. Let them feed in the middle of fertile pasture land, in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.

15“As in the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things.”

16The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might. They will lay their hand on their mouth. Their ears will be deaf.
