Micah 7:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 I will bear the wrath of the Lord, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: then will he bring me forth to the light, and I shall see his righteousness.
10 Then she that is mine enemy, shall look upon it, and shame shall cover her, which said unto me, Where is the Lord thy God? Mine eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
11 This is [a]the day, that thy walls shall be built: this day shall drive far away [b]the decree.

Micah 7:9-11
New International Version
9 Because I have sinned against him,
I will bear the Lord’s wrath,(A)
until he pleads my case(B)
and upholds my cause.
He will bring me out into the light;(C)
I will see his righteousness.(D)
10 Then my enemy will see it
and will be covered with shame,(E)
she who said to me,
“Where is the Lord your God?”(F)
My eyes will see her downfall;(G)
even now she will be trampled(H) underfoot
like mire in the streets.
11 The day for building your walls(I) will come,
the day for extending your boundaries.
