MIC-1:1 The word of the LORD that came to Micah the Morasthite

in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah,
which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.

MIC-1:2 Hear, all ye people; hearken, O earth, and all that
therein is:and let the Lord GOD be witness against you, the Lord
from his holy temple.

MIC-1:3 For, behold, the LORD cometh forth out of his place,
and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.

MIC-1:4 And the mountains shall be molten under him, and the
valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, [and] as the
waters [that are] poured down a steep place.

MIC-1:5 For the transgression of Jacob [is] all this, and for
the sins of the house of Israel. What [is] the transgression of
Jacob? [is it] not Samaria? and what [are] the high places of
Judah? [are they] not Jerusalem?

MIC-1:6 Therefore I will make Samaria as an heap of the field,
[and] as plantings of a vineyard:and I will pour down the stones
thereof into the valley, and I will discover the foundations
thereof.

MIC-1:7 And all the graven images thereof shall be beaten to
pieces, and all the hires thereof shall be burned with the fire,
and all the idols thereof will I lay desolate:for she gathered
[it] of the hire of an harlot, and they shall return to the hire
of an harlot.

MIC-1:8 Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and
naked:I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as
the owls.

MIC-1:9 For her wound [is] incurable; for it is come unto Judah;
he is come unto the gate of my people, [even] to Jerusalem.

MIC-1:10 Declare ye [it] not at Gath, weep ye not at all:in the
house of Aphrah roll thyself in the dust.

MIC-1:11 Pass ye away, thou inhabitant of Saphir, having thy
shame naked:the inhabitant of Zaanan came not forth in the
mourning of Bethezel; he shall receive of you his standing.

MIC-1:12 For the inhabitant of Maroth waited carefully for good:
but evil came down from the LORD unto the gate of Jerusalem.

MIC-1:13 O thou inhabitant of Lachish, bind the chariot to the
swift beast:she [is] the beginning of the sin to the daughter of
Zion:for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.

MIC-1:14 Therefore shalt thou give presents to Moreshethgath:
the houses of Achzib [shall be] a lie to the kings of Israel.

MIC-1:15 Yet will I bring an heir unto thee, O inhabitant of
Mareshah:he shall come unto Adullam the glory of Israel.

MIC-1:16 Make thee bald, and poll thee for thy delicate
children; enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone
into captivity from thee.

*MIC-2:1 Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon
their beds! when the morning is light, they practice it, because
it is in the power of their hand.

MIC-2:2 And they covet fields, and take [them] by violence; and
houses, and take [them] away:so they oppress a man and his house,
even a man and his heritage.

MIC-2:3 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this
family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your
necks; neither shall ye go haughtily:for this time [is] evil.

MIC-2:4 In that day shall [one] take up a parable against you,
and lament with a doleful lamentation, [and] say, We be utterly
spoiled:he hath changed the portion of my people:how hath he
removed [it] from me! turning away he hath divided our fields.

MIC-2:5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord
by lot in the congregation of the LORD.

MIC-2:6 Prophesy ye not, [say they to them that] prophesy:they
shall not prophesy to them, [that] they shall not take shame.

MIC-2:7 O [thou that art] named the house of Jacob, is the
spirit of the LORD straitened? [are] these his doings? do not my
words do good to him that walketh uprightly?

MIC-2:8 Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy:ye pull
off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as
men averse from war.

MIC-2:9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their
pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory
for ever.

MIC-2:10 Arise ye, and depart; for this [is] not [your] rest:
because it is polluted, it shall destroy [you], even with a sore
destruction.

MIC-2:11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie,
[saying], I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink;
he shall even be the prophet of this people.

MIC-2:12 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will
surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as
the sheep of Bozrah, as the flock in the midst of their fold:
they shall make great noise by reason of [the multitude of] men.

MIC-2:13 The breaker is come up before them:they have broken up,
and have passed through the gate, and are gone out by it:and
their king shall pass before them, and the LORD on the head of
them.

*MIC-3:1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye
princes of the house of Israel; [Is it] not for you to know
judgment?

MIC-3:2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off
their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;

MIC-3:3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their
skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in
pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.

MIC-3:4 Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear
them:he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they
have behaved themselves ill in their doings.

MIC-3:5 Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make
my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and
he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war
against him.

MIC-3:6 Therefore night [shall be] unto you, that ye shall not
have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not
divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day
shall be dark over them.

MIC-3:7 Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners
confounded:yea, they shall all cover their lips; for [there is]
no answer of God.

MIC-3:8 But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD,
and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his
transgression, and to Israel his sin.

MIC-3:9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob,
and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and
pervert all equity.

MIC-3:10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with
iniquity.

MIC-3:11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests
thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for
money:yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, [Is] not the
LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.

MIC-3:12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed [as] a
field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the
house as the high places of the forest.

*MIC-4:1 But in the last days it shall come to pass, [that] the
mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the
top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills;
and people shall flow unto it.

MIC-4:2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us
go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God
of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in
his paths:for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of
the LORD from Jerusalem.

MIC-4:3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong
nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into
plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks:nation shall not
lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any
more.

MIC-4:4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under
his fig tree; and none shall make [them] afraid:for the mouth of
the LORD of hosts hath spoken [it].

MIC-4:5 For all people will walk every one in the name of his
god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever
and ever.

MIC-4:6 In that day, saith the LORD, will I assemble her that
halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that
I have afflicted;

MIC-4:7 And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that
was cast far off a strong nation:and the LORD shall reign over
them in mount Zion from henceforth, even for ever.

MIC-4:8 And thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the
daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, even the first
dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.

MIC-4:9 Now why dost thou cry out aloud? [is there] no king in
thee? is thy counsellor perished? for pangs have taken thee as a
woman in travail.

MIC-4:10 Be in pain, and labour to bring forth, O daughter of
Zion, like a woman in travail:for now shalt thou go forth out of
the city, and thou shalt dwell in the field, and thou shalt go
[even] to Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there the LORD
shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.

MIC-4:11 Now also many nations are gathered against thee, that
say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.

MIC-4:12 But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither
understand they his counsel:for he shall gather them as the
sheaves into the floor.

MIC-4:13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion:for I will make
thine horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass:and thou shalt
beat in pieces many people:and I will consecrate their gain unto
the LORD, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.

*MIC-5:1 Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops:he
hath laid siege against us:they shall smite the judge of Israel
with a rod upon the cheek.

MIC-5:2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, [though] thou be little
among the thousands of Judah, [yet] out of thee shall he come
forth unto me [that is] to be ruler in Israel; whose goings
forth [have been] from of old, from everlasting.

MIC-5:3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time [that]
she which travaileth hath brought forth:then the remnant of his
brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.

MIC-5:4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD,
in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall
abide:for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.

MIC-5:5 And this [man] shall be the peace, when the Assyrian
shall come into our land:and when he shall tread in our palaces,
then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight
principal men.

MIC-5:6 And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword,
and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof:thus shall he
deliver [us] from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land,
and when he treadeth within our borders.

MIC-5:7 And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many
people as a dew from the LORD, as the showers upon the grass,
that tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of men.

MIC-5:8 And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in
the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the
forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep:who, if he go
through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can
deliver.

MIC-5:9 Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries,
and all thine enemies shall be cut off.

MIC-5:10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD,
that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I
will destroy thy chariots:

MIC-5:11 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw
down all thy strong holds:

MIC-5:12 And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand; and
thou shalt have no [more] soothsayers:

MIC-5:13 Thy graven images also will I cut off, and thy
standing images out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more
worship the work of thine hands.

MIC-5:14 And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of
thee:so will I destroy thy cities.

MIC-5:15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon
the heathen, such as they have not heard.

*MIC-6:1 Hear ye now what the LORD saith; Arise, contend thou
before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.

MIC-6:2 Hear ye, O mountains, the LORD'S controversy, and ye
strong foundations of the earth:for the LORD hath a controversy
with his people, and he will plead with Israel.

MIC-6:3 O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein
have I wearied thee? testify against me.

MIC-6:4 For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and
redeemed thee out of the house of servants; and I sent before
thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.

MIC-6:5 O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab
consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from
Shittim unto Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the
LORD.

MIC-6:6 Wherewith shall I come before the LORD, [and] bow
myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt
offerings, with calves of a year old?

MIC-6:7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, [or]
with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn
[for] my transgression, the fruit of my body [for] the sin of my
soul?

MIC-6:8 He hath showed thee, O man, what [is] good; and what
doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love
mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

MIC-6:9 The LORD'S voice crieth unto the city, and [the man of]
wisdom shall see thy name:hear ye the rod, and who hath
appointed it.

MIC-6:10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house
of the wicked, and the scant measure [that is] abominable?

MIC-6:11 Shall I count [them] pure with the wicked balances,
and with the bag of deceitful weights?

MIC-6:12 For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the
inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue [is]
deceitful in their mouth.

MIC-6:13 Therefore also will I make [thee] sick in smiting thee,
in making [thee] desolate because of thy sins.

MIC-6:14 Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting
down [shall be] in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take hold,
but shalt not deliver; and [that] which thou deliverest will I
give up to the sword.

MIC-6:15 Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt
tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and
sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.

MIC-6:16 For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works
of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I
should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an
hissing:therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.

*MIC-7:1 Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the
summer fruits, as the grapegleanings of the vintage:[there is]
no cluster to eat:my soul desired the firstripe fruit.

MIC-7:2 The good [man] is perished out of the earth:and [there
is] none upright among men:they all lie in wait for blood; they
hunt every man his brother with a net.

MIC-7:3 That they may do evil with both hands earnestly, the
prince asketh, and the judge [asketh] for a reward; and the
great [man], he uttereth his mischievous desire:so they wrap it
up.

MIC-7:4 The best of them [is] as a brier:the most upright [is
sharper] than a thorn hedge:the day of thy watchmen [and] thy
visitation cometh; now shall be their perplexity.

MIC-7:5 Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a
guide:keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy
bosom.

MIC-7:6 For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter
riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law against her
mother in law; a man's enemies [are] the men of his own house.

MIC-7:7 Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for
the God of my salvation:my God will hear me.

MIC-7:8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy:when I fall, I
shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD [shall be] a light
unto me.

MIC-7:9 I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have
sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute
judgment for me:he will bring me forth to the light, [and] I
shall behold his righteousness.

MIC-7:10 Then [she that is] mine enemy shall see [it], and
shame shall cover her which said unto me, Where is the LORD thy
God? mine eyes shall behold her:now shall she be trodden down as
the mire of the streets.

MIC-7:11 [In] the day that thy walls are to be built, [in] that
day shall the decree be far removed.

MIC-7:12 [In] that day [also] he shall come even to thee from
Assyria, and [from] the fortified cities, and from the fortress
even to the river, and from sea to sea, and [from] mountain to
mountain.

MIC-7:13 Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of
them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.

MIC-7:14 Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine
heritage, which dwell solitarily [in] the wood, in the midst of
Carmel:let them feed [in] Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of
old.

MIC-7:15 According to the days of thy coming out of the land of
Egypt will I show unto him marvellous [things].

MIC-7:16 The nations shall see and be confounded at all their
might:they shall lay [their] hand upon [their] mouth, their ears
shall be deaf.

MIC-7:17 They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall
move out of their holes like worms of the earth:they shall be
afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear because of thee.

MIC-7:18 Who [is] a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity,
and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his
heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he
delighteth [in] mercy.

MIC-7:19 He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us;
he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins
into the depths of the sea.

MIC-7:20 Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, [and] the mercy
to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days
of old.
