Micah 2:11-13
New International Version
11 If a liar and deceiver(A) comes and says,
‘I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer,’(B)
that would be just the prophet for this people!(C)
Deliverance Promised
12 “I will surely gather all of you, Jacob;
I will surely bring together the remnant(D) of Israel.
I will bring them together like sheep in a pen,
like a flock in its pasture;
the place will throng with people.(E)
13 The One who breaks open the way will go up before(F) them;
they will break through the gate(G) and go out.
Their King will pass through before them,
the Lord at their head.”

And speak a lie, saying,

Israel Restored
12 “I(B) will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob,
I will surely gather the remnant of Israel;
I will put them together (C)like sheep of [c]the fold,
Like a flock in the midst of their pasture;
(D)They shall make a loud noise because of so many people.
13 The one who breaks open will come up before them;
They will break out,
Pass through the gate,
And go out by it;
(E)Their king will pass before them,
(F)With the Lord at their head.”
