Miqueas 7
Nueva Versión Internacional
Lamento ante una sociedad corrupta
7 ¡Pobre de mí!
Soy como el que recoge frutos de verano
y busca lo que sobre en la viña;
no hay ningún racimo para comer,
ningún higo nuevo que tanto deseo.
2 La gente piadosa ha sido eliminada del país,
no queda persona recta.
Todos tratan de matar a alguien;
unos a otros se tienden redes.
3 Ambas manos son hábiles para hacer el mal;
gobernadores y jueces exigen soborno.
Los poderosos imponen lo que quieren;
todos traman en conjunto.
4 El mejor de ellos es más enmarañado que una zarza;
el más recto, más torcido que un espino.
Pero ya viene el día de su confusión;
¡ya se acerca el día de tu castigo
anunciado por tus centinelas!
5 No creas en tu prójimo
ni confíes en tus amigos;
cuídate de lo que hablas
con la que duerme en tus brazos.
6 El hijo ultraja al padre,
la hija se rebela contra la madre,
la nuera contra la suegra
y los enemigos de cada cual
están en su propia familia.
7 Pero yo he puesto mi esperanza en el Señor;
yo espero en el Dios de mi salvación.
¡Mi Dios me escuchará!
Esperanza de redención
8 Enemiga mía, no te alegres de mi mal.
Aunque haya caído me levantaré.
Aunque vivo en tinieblas
el Señor es mi luz.
9 He pecado contra el Señor,
así que soportaré su furia
hasta que defienda mi causa
y me haga justicia.
Entonces me sacará a la luz
y veré su justicia.
10 Cuando lo vea mi enemiga,
la que me decía: «¿Dónde está el Señor tu Dios?»,
se llenará de vergüenza.
Mis ojos contemplarán su desgracia,
pues será pisoteada como el lodo de las calles.
11 El día que tus muros sean reconstruidos
será el momento de extender tus fronteras.
12 Ese día acudirán a ti los pueblos,
desde Asiria hasta las ciudades de Egipto;
desde Egipto hasta el río Éufrates,
de mar a mar
y de montaña a montaña.
13 La tierra quedará desolada
por culpa de sus habitantes,
como resultado de su maldad.
14 Pastorea con tu cayado a tu pueblo,
al rebaño de tu propiedad,
que habita solitario en el bosque,
en medio de un campo fértil.[a]
Hazlo pastar en Basán y en Galaad
como en los tiempos pasados.
15 Muéstrale tus maravillas,
como cuando lo sacaste de Egipto.
16 Las naciones verán tus maravillas
y se avergonzarán de toda su prepotencia;
se llevarán la mano a la boca
y sus oídos se ensordecerán.
17 Lamerán el polvo como serpientes,
como los reptiles de la tierra.
Saldrán temblando de sus escondrijos
y, temerosos ante tu presencia,
se volverán a ti, Señor y Dios nuestro.
18 ¿Qué Dios hay como tú,
que perdone la maldad
y pase por alto el delito
del remanente de su heredad?
No estarás airado para siempre,
porque tu mayor placer es amar.
19 Vuelve a compadecerte de nosotros.
Pon tu pie sobre nuestras maldades
y arroja al fondo del mar todos nuestros pecados.
20 Muestra tu fidelidad a Jacob
y tu lealtad a Abraham,
como desde tiempos antiguos
se lo juraste a nuestros antepasados.

The Lord’s People Confess Their Sin
7 Poor me!
I am like those gathering summer fruit,
like those picking grapes.
But there aren’t any grapes to eat
or any ripened figs that I crave.
2 Faithful people are gone from the earth,
and no one is decent.
All people lie in ambush to commit murder.
They trap each other with nets.
3 Their hands are skilled in doing evil.
Officials ask for gifts.
Judges accept bribes.
Powerful people dictate what they want.
So they scheme together.[a]
4 The best of them is like a briar.
The most decent person is sharper than thornbushes.
The day you thought you would be punished has come.
Now is the time you will be confused.
5 Don’t trust your neighbors.
Don’t have confidence in your friends.
Keep your mouth shut even when a woman is lying in your arms.
6 A son treats his father with contempt.
A daughter rebels against her mother.
A daughter-in-law rebels against her mother-in-law.
People’s enemies are the members of their own families.
7 I will look to Yahweh.
I will wait for Elohim to save me.
I will wait for my Elohim to listen to me.
8 Don’t laugh at me, my enemies.
Although I’ve fallen, I will get up.
Although I sit in the dark, Yahweh is my light.
9 I have sinned against Yahweh.
So I will endure his fury
until he takes up my cause and wins my case.
He will bring me into the light,
and I will see his victory.
10 Then my enemies will see this, and they will be covered with shame,
because they asked me, “Where is Yahweh your Elohim?”
Now I look at them.
They are trampled like mud in the streets.
11 The day for rebuilding your walls
and extending your borders is coming.
12 When that day comes, your people will come to you
from Assyria and the cities of Egypt,
from Egypt to the Euphrates River,
from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 The earth will become a wasteland for those who live on it
because of what the people living there have done.
14 With your shepherd’s staff, take care of your people,
the sheep that belong to you.
They live alone in the woods, in fertile pastures.
Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead like before.
15 Let us see miracles
like the time you came out of Egypt.
16 Nations will see this and be ashamed in spite of all their strength.
They will put their hands over their mouths.
Their ears will become deaf.
17 They will lick dust like snakes,
like animals that crawl on the ground.
They will come out of their hiding places trembling.
They will turn away from your presence in fear, O Yahweh our Elohim.
They will be afraid of you.
18 Who is an El like you?
You forgive sin
and overlook the rebellion of your faithful people.
You will not be angry forever,
because you would rather show mercy.
19 You will again have compassion on us.
You will overcome our wrongdoing.
You will throw all our sins into the deep sea.
20 You will be faithful to Jacob.
You will have mercy on Abraham
as you swore by an oath to our ancestors long ago.

Israel’s Misery
7 What misery is mine!
I am like one who gathers summer fruit
at the gleaning of the vineyard;
there is no cluster of grapes to eat,
none of the early figs(A) that I crave.
2 The faithful have been swept from the land;(B)
not one(C) upright person remains.
Everyone lies in wait(D) to shed blood;(E)
they hunt each other(F) with nets.(G)
3 Both hands are skilled in doing evil;(H)
the ruler demands gifts,
the judge accepts bribes,(I)
the powerful dictate what they desire—
they all conspire together.
4 The best of them is like a brier,(J)
the most upright worse than a thorn(K) hedge.
The day God visits you has come,
the day your watchmen sound the alarm.
Now is the time of your confusion.(L)
5 Do not trust a neighbor;
put no confidence in a friend.(M)
Even with the woman who lies in your embrace
guard the words of your lips.
6 For a son dishonors his father,
a daughter rises up against her mother,(N)
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.(O)
7 But as for me, I watch(P) in hope(Q) for the Lord,
I wait for God my Savior;
my God will hear(R) me.
Israel Will Rise
8 Do not gloat over me,(S) my enemy!
Though I have fallen, I will rise.(T)
Though I sit in darkness,
the Lord will be my light.(U)
9 Because I have sinned against him,
I will bear the Lord’s wrath,(V)
until he pleads my case(W)
and upholds my cause.
He will bring me out into the light;(X)
I will see his righteousness.(Y)
10 Then my enemy will see it
and will be covered with shame,(Z)
she who said to me,
“Where is the Lord your God?”(AA)
My eyes will see her downfall;(AB)
even now she will be trampled(AC) underfoot
like mire in the streets.
11 The day for building your walls(AD) will come,
the day for extending your boundaries.
12 In that day people will come to you
from Assyria(AE) and the cities of Egypt,
even from Egypt to the Euphrates
and from sea to sea
and from mountain to mountain.(AF)
13 The earth will become desolate because of its inhabitants,
as the result of their deeds.(AG)
Prayer and Praise
14 Shepherd(AH) your people with your staff,(AI)
the flock of your inheritance,
which lives by itself in a forest,
in fertile pasturelands.[a](AJ)
Let them feed in Bashan(AK) and Gilead(AL)
as in days long ago.(AM)
15 “As in the days when you came out of Egypt,
I will show them my wonders.(AN)”
16 Nations will see and be ashamed,(AO)
deprived of all their power.
They will put their hands over their mouths(AP)
and their ears will become deaf.
17 They will lick dust(AQ) like a snake,
like creatures that crawl on the ground.
They will come trembling(AR) out of their dens;
they will turn in fear(AS) to the Lord our God
and will be afraid of you.
18 Who is a God(AT) like you,
who pardons sin(AU) and forgives(AV) the transgression
of the remnant(AW) of his inheritance?(AX)
You do not stay angry(AY) forever
but delight to show mercy.(AZ)
19 You will again have compassion on us;
you will tread our sins underfoot
and hurl all our iniquities(BA) into the depths of the sea.(BB)
20 You will be faithful to Jacob,
and show love to Abraham,(BC)
as you pledged on oath to our ancestors(BD)
in days long ago.(BE)
