Micah 7:14-20
Legacy Standard Bible
14 (A)Shepherd Your people with Your (B)scepter,
The flock of Your inheritance
Which dwells by itself in the forest,
In the midst of [a]a fruitful orchard.
Let them feed in (C)Bashan and Gilead
(D)As in the ancient days.
15 “As in the days when you came out from the land of Egypt,
I will show [b](E)you wondrous deeds.”
16 Nations (F)will see and be ashamed
Of all their might.
They will (G)put their hand on their mouth;
Their ears will be deaf.
17 They will (H)lick the dust like a serpent,
Like (I)crawling things of the earth.
They will come (J)trembling out of their [c]fortresses;
To Yahweh our God they will come in (K)dread,
And they will be afraid before You.
18 Who is a God like You, who (L)forgives iniquity
And passes over the transgression of the (M)remnant of His inheritance?
He does not (N)hold fast to His anger forever
Because He (O)delights in lovingkindness.
19 He will again have compassion on us;
(P)He will subdue our iniquities.
And You will (Q)cast all [d]their sins
Into the depths of the sea.
20 You will give [e](R)truth to Jacob
And lovingkindness to Abraham,
Which You (S)swore to our fathers
From the days of old.

Prayer and Praise
14 Shepherd(A) your people with your staff,(B)
the flock of your inheritance,
which lives by itself in a forest,
in fertile pasturelands.[a](C)
Let them feed in Bashan(D) and Gilead(E)
as in days long ago.(F)
15 “As in the days when you came out of Egypt,
I will show them my wonders.(G)”
16 Nations will see and be ashamed,(H)
deprived of all their power.
They will put their hands over their mouths(I)
and their ears will become deaf.
17 They will lick dust(J) like a snake,
like creatures that crawl on the ground.
They will come trembling(K) out of their dens;
they will turn in fear(L) to the Lord our God
and will be afraid of you.
18 Who is a God(M) like you,
who pardons sin(N) and forgives(O) the transgression
of the remnant(P) of his inheritance?(Q)
You do not stay angry(R) forever
but delight to show mercy.(S)
19 You will again have compassion on us;
you will tread our sins underfoot
and hurl all our iniquities(T) into the depths of the sea.(U)
20 You will be faithful to Jacob,
and show love to Abraham,(V)
as you pledged on oath to our ancestors(W)
in days long ago.(X)
