Micah 7:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷ But I will look to the Lord.
    I’ll put my trust in God my Savior.
    He will hear me.

“Don’t laugh when we suffer,
    you enemies of ours!
We have fallen.
    But we’ll get up.
Even though we sit in the dark,
    the Lord will give us light.
⁹ We’ve sinned against the Lord.
    So he is angry with us.
His anger will continue until he takes up our case.
    Then he’ll do what is right for us.
He’ll bring us out into the light.
    Then we’ll see him save us.
