CHAPTER 5
Micah 5:1
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.
Micah 5:2
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.
Micah 5:3
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.
Micah 5:4
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.
Micah 5:5
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. Micah 5:6
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. Micah 5:7
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.
Micah 5:8
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.
Micah 5:9
9 Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and all thine
enemies shall be cut off.
Micah 5:10
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:
Micah 5:11
11 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strong holds:
Micah 5:12
12 And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand; and thou shalt have no
more soothsayers:
Micah 5:13
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.
Micah 5:14
14 And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee: so will I
destroy thy cities.
Micah 5:15
15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as
they have not heard.
CHAPTER 6
Micah 6:1
1 Hear ye now what the LORD saith; Arise, contend thou before the
mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
Micah 6:2
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.
Micah 6:3
3 O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein have I wearied thee?
testify against me.
Micah 6:4
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.
Micah 6:5
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. Micah 6:6
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?
Micah 6:7
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?
Micah 6:8
8 He hath shewed 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?
Micah 6:9
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. Micah 6:10
10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and


the scant measure that is abominable? Micah 6:11
11 Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of
deceitful weights?
Micah 6:12
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.
Micah 6:13
13 Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee, in making thee
desolate because of thy sins.
Micah 6:14
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. Micah 6:15
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.
Micah 6:16
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.
CHAPTER 7
Micah 7:1
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.
Micah 7:2
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.
Micah 7:3
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. Micah 7:4
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.
Micah 7:5
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. Micah 7:6
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.
Micah 7:7
7 Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my
salvation: my God will hear me.
Micah 7:8
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. Micah 7:9
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. Micah 7:10
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. Micah 7:11
11 In the day that thy walls are to be built, in that day shall the decree
be far removed.
Micah 7:12
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. Micah 7:13
13 Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of them that dwell
therein, for the fruit of their doings. Micah 7:14
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.
Micah 7:15
15 According to the days of thy coming out of the land of Egypt will I shew
unto him marvellous things.
Micah 7:16
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. Micah 7:17
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.
Micah 7:18
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. Micah 7:19
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.
Micah 7:20
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.
