Context of Micah 7:15
13The earth will become desolate because of its inhabitants, as the result of their deeds. 14Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your inheritance, which lives by itself in a forest, in fertile pasturelands. Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead as in days long ago. “As in the days when you came out of Egypt, I will show them my wonders.” 16Nations will see and be ashamed, deprived of all their power. They will put their hands over their mouths and their ears will become deaf. 17They will lick dust like a snake, like creatures that crawl on the ground. They will come trembling out of their dens; they will turn in fear to the Lord our God and will be afraid of you.
