Micah 4:11-13
The Message
Micah 4:11-13
The Message
11-12 But for right now, they’re ganged up against you,
many godless peoples, saying,
“Kick her when she’s down! Violate her!
We want to see Zion grovel in the dirt.”
These blasphemers have no idea
what God is thinking and doing in this.
They don’t know that this is the making of God’s people,
that they are wheat being threshed, gold being refined.
13 On your feet, Daughter of Zion! Be threshed of chaff,
be refined of dross.
I’m remaking you into a people invincible,
into God’s juggernaut to crush the godless peoples.
You’ll bring their plunder as holy offerings to God,
their wealth to the Master of the earth.
Micah 4:11-13
New International Version
Micah 4:11-13
New International Version
11 But now many nations
are gathered against you.
They say, “Let her be defiled,
let our eyes gloat(A) over Zion!”
12 But they do not know
the thoughts of the Lord;
they do not understand his plan,(B)
that he has gathered them like sheaves to the threshing floor.
13 “Rise and thresh,(C) Daughter Zion,
for I will give you horns of iron;
I will give you hooves of bronze,
and you will break to pieces many nations.”(D)
You will devote their ill-gotten gains to the Lord,(E)
their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
The Message (MSG)
