Micah 7:14-20

14Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your inheritance, who dwell alone in a forest in the midst of a garden land; let them graze in Bashan and Gilead as in the days of old.

15As in the days when you came out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things.

16The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might; they shall lay their hands on their mouths; their ears shall be deaf;

17they shall lick the dust like a serpent, like the crawling things of the earth; they shall come trembling out of their strongholds; they shall turn in dread to the Lord our God, and they shall be in fear of you.

18Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in steadfast love.

19He will again have compassion on us; he will tread our iniquities underfoot. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.

20You will show faithfulness to Jacob and steadfast love to Abraham, as you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
