Israel's Moral Decline
# Chapter 7
1. How sad for me!
For I am like one who--
1 How sad for me!
For I am like one who—
when the summer fruit has been gathered
after the gleaning of the grape harvest--
after the gleaning of the grape harvest—
finds no grape cluster to eat,
no early fig, which I crave.
2. Faithful people have vanished from the land;
2 Faithful people have vanished from the land;
there is no one upright among the people.
All of them wait in ambush to shed blood;
they hunt each other with a net.
3. Both hands are good at accomplishing evil:
3 Both hands are good at accomplishing evil:
the official and the judge demand a bribe;
when the powerful man communicates his evil desire,
they plot it together.
4. The best of them is like a brier;
4 The best of them is like a brier;
the most upright is worse than a hedge of thorns.
The day of your watchmen,
the day of your punishment, is coming;
at this time their panic is here.
5. Do not rely on a friend;
don't trust in a close companion.
5 Do not rely on a friend;
don’t trust in a close companion.
Seal your mouth
from the woman who lies in your arms.
6. Surely a son considers his father a fool,
6 Surely a son considers his father a fool,
a daughter opposes her mother,
and a daughter-in-law is against her mother-in-law;
a man's enemies are the men of his own household.
7. But I will look to
the Lord;
a man’s enemies are the men of his own household.
7 But I will look to the Lord;
I will wait for the God of my salvation.
My God will hear me.
Zion's Vindication
8. Do not rejoice over me, my enemy!
8 Do not rejoice over me, my enemy!
Though I have fallen, I will stand up;
though I sit in darkness,
the Lord will be my light.
9. Because I have sinned against him,
I must endure
the Lord's fury
9 Because I have sinned against him,
I must endure the Lord’s fury
until he champions my cause
and establishes justice for me.
He will bring me into the light;
I will see his salvation.
10. Then my enemy will see,
10 Then my enemy will see,
and she will be covered with shame,
the one who said to me,
"Where is
the Lord your God?"
“Where is the Lord your God?”
My eyes will look at her in triumph;
at that time she will be trampled
like mud in the streets.
11. A day will come for rebuilding your walls;
11 A day will come for rebuilding your walls;
on that day your boundary will be extended.
12. On that day people will come to you
12 On that day people will come to you
from Assyria and the cities of Egypt,
even from Egypt to the Euphrates River
and from sea to sea
and mountain to mountain.
13. Then the earth will become a wasteland
13 Then the earth will become a wasteland
because of its inhabitants
and as a result of their actions.
Micah's Prayer Answered
14. Shepherd your people with your staff,
14 Shepherd your people with your staff,
the flock that is your possession.
They live alone in a woodland
surrounded by pastures.
Let them graze in Bashan and Gilead
as in ancient times.
15. I will perform miracles for them
15 I will perform miracles for them
as in the days of your exodus
from the land of Egypt.
16. Nations will see and be ashamed
16 Nations will see and be ashamed
of all their power.
They will put their hands over their mouths,
and their ears will become deaf.
17. They will lick the dust like a snake;
17 They will lick the dust like a snake;
they will come trembling out of their hiding places
like reptiles slithering on the ground.
They will tremble in the presence of
the Lord our God;
They will tremble in the presence of the Lord our God;
they will stand in awe of you.
18. Who is a God like you,
18 Who is a God like you,
forgiving iniquity and passing over rebellion
for the remnant of his inheritance?
He does not hold on to his anger forever
because he delights in faithful love.
19. He will again have compassion on us;
19 He will again have compassion on us;
he will vanquish our iniquities.
You will cast all our sins
into the depths of the sea.
20. You will show loyalty to Jacob
20 You will show loyalty to Jacob
and faithful love to Abraham,
as you swore to our ancestors
from days long ago.
from days long ago.
