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.
