Micah 4:12

Micah 4:12

10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth,
O daughter of Zion,
Like a woman in birth pangs.
For now you shall go forth from the city,
You shall dwell in the field,
And to ^aBabylon you shall go.
There you shall be delivered;
There the ^bLord will ^credeem you
From the hand of your enemies.

11 ^aNow also many nations have gathered against you,
Who say, “Let her be defiled,
And let our eye ^blook upon Zion.”

12 But they do not know ^athe thoughts of the Lord,
Nor do they understand His counsel;
For He will gather them ^blike sheaves to the threshing floor.

13 “Arise^a and ^bthresh, O daughter of Zion;
For I will make your horn iron,
And I will make your hooves bronze;
You shall ^cbeat in pieces many peoples;
^dI will consecrate their gain to the Lord,
And their substance to ^ethe Lord of the whole earth.”

John Wesley's Notes

<< Micah 4:11

Micah 4:13 >>

The thoughts - The design of the holy, just and faithful God. As the sheaves - The husbandman gathers the sheaves into the floor to thresh them; so God in due time will bring his enemies together, that they may be bruised, broken and destroyed.
