Micah 7:7
Compare all
5 aDo not trust in a friend;
Do not put your confidence in a companion;
Guard the doors of your mouth
From her who lies in your bbosom. 
6 For ason dishonors father,
Daughter rises against her mother,
Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;
A man’s enemies are the men of his own household. 
7 Therefore I will look to the Lord;
I will await for the God of my salvation;
My God will hear me. 

Israel’s Confession and Comfort

8 aDo not rejoice over me, my enemy;
bWhen I fall, I will arise;
When I sit in darkness,
The Lord will be a light to me. 
9 aI will bear the indignation of the Lord,
Because I have sinned against Him,
Until He pleads my bcase
And executes justice for me.
He will bring me forth to the light;
I will see His righteousness. 
10 Then she who is my enemy will see,
And ashame will cover her who said to me,
b“Where is the Lord your God?”
My eyes will see her;
Now she will be trampled down
Like mud in the streets. 
11 In the day when your awalls are to be built,
In that day1 the decree shall go far and wide. 
12 In that day athey shall come to you
From Assyria and the1 fortified cities,
From the1 fortress to the River,
From sea to sea,
And mountain to mountain.
