Micah 7:14-20

14ShepherdH7462 with Your staffH7626 Your peopleH5971, the flockH6629 of Your inheritanceH5159. They liveH7931 aloneH910 in a woodlandH3293, surrounded byH8432 pasturesH3759.1 Let them grazeH7462 in BashanH1316 and GileadH1568, as in the daysH3117 of oldH5769.

15As in the days whenH3117 you came outH3318 of EgyptH776 H4714,I will showH7200 My wondersH6381.16NationsH1471 will seeH7200 and be ashamedH954,deprived of allH3605 their mightH1369.They will putH7760 their handsH3027 overH5921 their mouthsH6310,and their earsH241 will become deafH2790.17They will lickH3897 the dustH6083 like a snakeH5175,like reptiles slitheringH2119 on the groundH776.They will come tremblingH7264 from their strongholdsH4526in the presence ofH413 the LORDH3068 our GodH430;they will trembleH6342 in fearH3372 of YouH4480.

18WhoH4310 is a GodH410 like YouH3644,who pardonsH5375 iniquityH5771and passesH5674 overH5921 the transgressionH6588of the remnantH7611 of His inheritanceH5159—who does notH3808 retainH2388 His angerH639 foreverH5703,becauseH3588 HeH1931 delightsH2655 in loving devotionH2617?219He will againH7725 have compassion on usH7355;He will vanquishH3533 our iniquitiesH5771.You will cast outH7993 allH3605 our sinsH2403into the depthsH4688 of the seaH3220.20You will showH5414 faithfulnessH571 to JacobH3290and loving devotionH2617 to AbrahamH85,asH834 You sworeH7650 to our fathersH1from the daysH3117 of oldH6924.
