Micah 7:16-18
GOD’S WORD Translation
16 Nations will see this and be ashamed in spite of all their strength.
They will put their hands over their mouths.
Their ears will become deaf.
17 They will lick dust like snakes,
like animals that crawl on the ground.
They will come out of their hiding places trembling.
They will turn away from your presence in fear, O Lord our God.
They will be afraid of you.
18 Who is a God like you?
You forgive sin
and overlook the rebellion of your faithful people.
You will not be angry forever,
because you would rather show mercy.
Micah 7:16-18
New International Version
16 Nations will see and be ashamed,(A)
deprived of all their power.
They will put their hands over their mouths(B)
and their ears will become deaf.
17 They will lick dust(C) like a snake,
like creatures that crawl on the ground.
They will come trembling(D) out of their dens;
they will turn in fear(E) to the Lord our God
and will be afraid of you.
18 Who is a God(F) like you,
who pardons sin(G) and forgives(H) the transgression
of the remnant(I) of his inheritance?(J)
You do not stay angry(K) forever
but delight to show mercy.(L)
