Micah 7:8-13
New International Version
Israel Will Rise
8 Do not gloat over me,(A) my enemy!
Though I have fallen, I will rise.(B)
Though I sit in darkness,
the Lord will be my light.(C)
9 Because I have sinned against him,
I will bear the Lord’s wrath,(D)
until he pleads my case(E)
and upholds my cause.
He will bring me out into the light;(F)
I will see his righteousness.(G)
10 Then my enemy will see it
and will be covered with shame,(H)
she who said to me,
“Where is the Lord your God?”(I)
My eyes will see her downfall;(J)
even now she will be trampled(K) underfoot
like mire in the streets.
11 The day for building your walls(L) will come,
the day for extending your boundaries.
12 In that day people will come to you
from Assyria(M) and the cities of Egypt,
even from Egypt to the Euphrates
and from sea to sea
and from mountain to mountain.(N)
13 The earth will become desolate because of its inhabitants,
as the result of their deeds.(O)

Micah 7:8-13
New American Standard Bible
8 (A)Do not rejoice over me, (B)enemy of mine.
Though I fall I will (C)rise;
Though I live in darkness, the Lord is a (D)light for me.
9 I will endure the rage of the Lord
Because I have sinned against Him,
Until He (E)pleads my case and executes justice for me.
He will bring me out to the (F)light,
And I will look at His [a](G)righteousness.
10 Then my enemy will see,
And shame will cover her who (H)said to me,
“Where is the Lord your God?”
My eyes will look at her;
[b]At that time she will [c]be (I)trampled down
Like mud of the streets.
11 It will be a day for (J)building your walls.
On that day your boundary will be extended.
12 It will be a day when [d]they will (K)come to you
From Assyria and the cities of Egypt,
From Egypt even to the Euphrates River,
Even from sea to sea and mountain to mountain.
13 And the earth will become a (L)wasteland because of her inhabitants,
On account of the (M)fruit of their deeds.

Micah 7:8-13
King James Version
8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.
9 I will bear the indignation of the Lord, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.
10 Then she that is mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her which said unto me, Where is the Lord thy God? mine eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
11 In the day that thy walls are to be built, in that day shall the decree be far removed.
12 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.
13 Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
