Micah 7:11-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 [a]It is the day for building your walls;
on that day your boundaries shall be enlarged.
12 It is the day when those from Assyria to Egypt
shall come to you,
And from Tyre even to the River,
from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain;(A)
13 And the earth shall be a waste
because of its inhabitants,
as a result of their deeds.
