Micah 7:9-11
Common English Bible
9 I must bear the raging of the Lord,
for I have sinned against him,
until he decides my case and provides justice for me.
He will bring me out into the light;
I will see by means of his righteousness.
10 Then my enemy will see;
shame will cover her who said to me:
“Where is the Lord your God?”
My eyes will see her ruin;[a]
now she will become something to be trampled,
like mud in the streets.
Micah responds to Zion
11 A day for the building of your walls!
On that day, the boundary will be distant.
