MIC-1:1 The word of the LORD that came to Micah the Morasthite


  • in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah,
  • which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
  • MIC-1:2 Hear, all ye people; hearken, O earth, and all that
  • therein is:and let the Lord GOD be witness against you, the Lord
  • from his holy temple.
  • MIC-1:3 For, behold, the LORD cometh forth out of his place,
  • and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
  • MIC-1:4 And the mountains shall be molten under him, and the
  • valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, [and] as the
  • waters [that are] poured down a steep place.
  • MIC-1:5 For the transgression of Jacob [is] all this, and for
  • the sins of the house of Israel. What [is] the transgression of
  • Jacob? [is it] not Samaria? and what [are] the high places of
  • Judah? [are they] not Jerusalem?
  • MIC-1:6 Therefore I will make Samaria as an heap of the field,
  • [and] as plantings of a vineyard:and I will pour down the stones
  • thereof into the valley, and I will discover the foundations
  • thereof.
  • MIC-1:7 And all the graven images thereof shall be beaten to
  • pieces, and all the hires thereof shall be burned with the fire,
  • and all the idols thereof will I lay desolate:for she gathered
  • [it] of the hire of an harlot, and they shall return to the hire
  • of an harlot.
  • MIC-1:8 Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and
  • naked:I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as
  • the owls.
  • MIC-1:9 For her wound [is] incurable; for it is come unto Judah;
  • he is come unto the gate of my people, [even] to Jerusalem.
  • MIC-1:10 Declare ye [it] not at Gath, weep ye not at all:in the
  • house of Aphrah roll thyself in the dust.
  • MIC-1:11 Pass ye away, thou inhabitant of Saphir, having thy
  • shame naked:the inhabitant of Zaanan came not forth in the
  • mourning of Bethezel; he shall receive of you his standing.
  • MIC-1:12 For the inhabitant of Maroth waited carefully for good:
  • but evil came down from the LORD unto the gate of Jerusalem.
  • MIC-1:13 O thou inhabitant of Lachish, bind the chariot to the
  • swift beast:she [is] the beginning of the sin to the daughter of
  • Zion:for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
  • MIC-1:14 Therefore shalt thou give presents to Moreshethgath:
  • the houses of Achzib [shall be] a lie to the kings of Israel.
  • MIC-1:15 Yet will I bring an heir unto thee, O inhabitant of
  • Mareshah:he shall come unto Adullam the glory of Israel.
  • MIC-1:16 Make thee bald, and poll thee for thy delicate
  • children; enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone
  • into captivity from thee.
  • *MIC-2:1 Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon
  • their beds! when the morning is light, they practice it, because
  • it is in the power of their hand.
  • MIC-2:2 And they covet fields, and take [them] by violence; and
  • houses, and take [them] away:so they oppress a man and his house,
  • even a man and his heritage.
  • MIC-2:3 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this
  • family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your
  • necks; neither shall ye go haughtily:for this time [is] evil.
  • MIC-2:4 In that day shall [one] take up a parable against you,
  • and lament with a doleful lamentation, [and] say, We be utterly
  • spoiled:he hath changed the portion of my people:how hath he
  • removed [it] from me! turning away he hath divided our fields.
  • MIC-2:5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord
  • by lot in the congregation of the LORD.
  • MIC-2:6 Prophesy ye not, [say they to them that] prophesy:they
  • shall not prophesy to them, [that] they shall not take shame.
  • MIC-2:7 O [thou that art] named the house of Jacob, is the
  • spirit of the LORD straitened? [are] these his doings? do not my
  • words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
  • MIC-2:8 Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy:ye pull
  • off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as
  • men averse from war.
  • MIC-2:9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their
  • pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory
  • for ever.
  • MIC-2:10 Arise ye, and depart; for this [is] not [your] rest:
  • because it is polluted, it shall destroy [you], even with a sore
  • destruction.
  • MIC-2:11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie,
  • [saying], I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink;
  • he shall even be the prophet of this people.
  • MIC-2:12 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will
  • surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as
  • the sheep of Bozrah, as the flock in the midst of their fold:
  • they shall make great noise by reason of [the multitude of] men.
  • MIC-2:13 The breaker is come up before them:they have broken up,
  • and have passed through the gate, and are gone out by it:and
  • their king shall pass before them, and the LORD on the head of
  • them.
  • *MIC-3:1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye
  • princes of the house of Israel; [Is it] not for you to know
  • judgment?
  • MIC-3:2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off
  • their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
  • MIC-3:3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their
  • skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in
  • pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
  • MIC-3:4 Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear
  • them:he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they
  • have behaved themselves ill in their doings.
  • MIC-3:5 Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make
  • my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and
  • he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war
  • against him.
  • MIC-3:6 Therefore night [shall be] unto you, that ye shall not
  • have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not
  • divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day
  • shall be dark over them.
  • MIC-3:7 Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners
  • confounded:yea, they shall all cover their lips; for [there is]
  • no answer of God.
  • MIC-3:8 But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD,
  • and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his
  • transgression, and to Israel his sin.
  • MIC-3:9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob,
  • and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and
  • pervert all equity.
  • MIC-3:10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with
  • iniquity.
  • MIC-3:11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests
  • thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for
  • money:yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, [Is] not the
  • LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.
  • MIC-3:12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed [as] a
  • field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the
  • house as the high places of the forest.
  • *MIC-4:1 But in the last days it shall come to pass, [that] the
  • mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the
  • top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills;
  • and people shall flow unto it.
  • MIC-4:2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us
  • go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God
  • of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in
  • his paths:for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of
  • the LORD from Jerusalem.
  • MIC-4:3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong
  • nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into
  • plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks:nation shall not
  • lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any
  • more.
  • MIC-4:4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under
  • his fig tree; and none shall make [them] afraid:for the mouth of
  • the LORD of hosts hath spoken [it].
  • MIC-4:5 For all people will walk every one in the name of his
  • god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever
  • and ever.
  • MIC-4:6 In that day, saith the LORD, will I assemble her that
  • halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that
  • I have afflicted;
  • MIC-4:7 And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that
  • was cast far off a strong nation:and the LORD shall reign over
  • them in mount Zion from henceforth, even for ever.
  • MIC-4:8 And thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the
  • daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, even the first
  • dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.
  • MIC-4:9 Now why dost thou cry out aloud? [is there] no king in
  • thee? is thy counsellor perished? for pangs have taken thee as a
  • woman in travail.
  • MIC-4:10 Be in pain, and labour to bring forth, O daughter of
  • Zion, like a woman in travail:for now shalt thou go forth out of
  • the city, and thou shalt dwell in the field, and thou shalt go
  • [even] to Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there the LORD
  • shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
  • MIC-4:11 Now also many nations are gathered against thee, that
  • say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.
  • MIC-4:12 But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither
  • understand they his counsel:for he shall gather them as the
  • sheaves into the floor.
  • MIC-4:13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion:for I will make
  • thine horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass:and thou shalt
  • beat in pieces many people:and I will consecrate their gain unto
  • the LORD, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.
  • *MIC-5:1 Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops:he
  • hath laid siege against us:they shall smite the judge of Israel
  • with a rod upon the cheek.
  • MIC-5:2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, [though] thou be little
  • among the thousands of Judah, [yet] out of thee shall he come
  • forth unto me [that is] to be ruler in Israel; whose goings
  • forth [have been] from of old, from everlasting.
  • MIC-5:3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time [that]
  • she which travaileth hath brought forth:then the remnant of his
  • brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.
  • MIC-5:4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD,
  • in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall
  • abide:for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.
  • MIC-5:5 And this [man] shall be the peace, when the Assyrian
  • shall come into our land:and when he shall tread in our palaces,
  • then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight
  • principal men.
  • MIC-5:6 And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword,
  • and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof:thus shall he
  • deliver [us] from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land,
  • and when he treadeth within our borders.
  • MIC-5:7 And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many
  • people as a dew from the LORD, as the showers upon the grass,
  • that tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of men.
  • MIC-5:8 And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in
  • the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the
  • forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep:who, if he go
  • through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can
  • deliver.
  • MIC-5:9 Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries,
  • and all thine enemies shall be cut off.
  • MIC-5:10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD,
  • that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I
  • will destroy thy chariots:
  • MIC-5:11 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw
  • down all thy strong holds:
  • MIC-5:12 And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand; and
  • thou shalt have no [more] soothsayers:
  • MIC-5:13 Thy graven images also will I cut off, and thy
  • standing images out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more
  • worship the work of thine hands.
  • MIC-5:14 And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of
  • thee:so will I destroy thy cities.
  • MIC-5:15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon
  • the heathen, such as they have not heard.
  • *MIC-6:1 Hear ye now what the LORD saith; Arise, contend thou
  • before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
  • MIC-6:2 Hear ye, O mountains, the LORD'S controversy, and ye
  • strong foundations of the earth:for the LORD hath a controversy
  • with his people, and he will plead with Israel.
  • MIC-6:3 O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein
  • have I wearied thee? testify against me.
  • MIC-6:4 For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and
  • redeemed thee out of the house of servants; and I sent before
  • thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
  • MIC-6:5 O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab
  • consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from
  • Shittim unto Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the
  • LORD.
  • MIC-6:6 Wherewith shall I come before the LORD, [and] bow
  • myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt
  • offerings, with calves of a year old?
  • MIC-6:7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, [or]
  • with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn
  • [for] my transgression, the fruit of my body [for] the sin of my
  • soul?
  • MIC-6:8 He hath showed thee, O man, what [is] good; and what
  • doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love
  • mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
  • MIC-6:9 The LORD'S voice crieth unto the city, and [the man of]
  • wisdom shall see thy name:hear ye the rod, and who hath
  • appointed it.
  • MIC-6:10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house
  • of the wicked, and the scant measure [that is] abominable?
  • MIC-6:11 Shall I count [them] pure with the wicked balances,
  • and with the bag of deceitful weights?
  • MIC-6:12 For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the
  • inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue [is]
  • deceitful in their mouth.
  • MIC-6:13 Therefore also will I make [thee] sick in smiting thee,
  • in making [thee] desolate because of thy sins.
  • MIC-6:14 Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting
  • down [shall be] in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take hold,
  • but shalt not deliver; and [that] which thou deliverest will I
  • give up to the sword.
  • MIC-6:15 Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt
  • tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and
  • sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.
  • MIC-6:16 For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works
  • of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I
  • should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an
  • hissing:therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
  • *MIC-7:1 Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the
  • summer fruits, as the grapegleanings of the vintage:[there is]
  • no cluster to eat:my soul desired the firstripe fruit.
  • MIC-7:2 The good [man] is perished out of the earth:and [there
  • is] none upright among men:they all lie in wait for blood; they
  • hunt every man his brother with a net.
  • MIC-7:3 That they may do evil with both hands earnestly, the
  • prince asketh, and the judge [asketh] for a reward; and the
  • great [man], he uttereth his mischievous desire:so they wrap it
  • up.
  • MIC-7:4 The best of them [is] as a brier:the most upright [is
  • sharper] than a thorn hedge:the day of thy watchmen [and] thy
  • visitation cometh; now shall be their perplexity.
  • MIC-7:5 Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a
  • guide:keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy
  • bosom.
  • MIC-7:6 For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter
  • riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law against her
  • mother in law; a man's enemies [are] the men of his own house.
  • MIC-7:7 Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for
  • the God of my salvation:my God will hear me.
  • MIC-7:8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy:when I fall, I
  • shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD [shall be] a light
  • unto me.
  • MIC-7:9 I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have
  • sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute
  • judgment for me:he will bring me forth to the light, [and] I
  • shall behold his righteousness.
  • MIC-7:10 Then [she that is] mine enemy shall see [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.
  • MIC-7:11 [In] the day that thy walls are to be built, [in] that
  • day shall the decree be far removed.
  • MIC-7:12 [In] that day [also] he shall come even to thee from
  • Assyria, and [from] the fortified cities, and from the fortress
  • even to the river, and from sea to sea, and [from] mountain to
  • mountain.
  • MIC-7:13 Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of
  • them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
  • MIC-7:14 Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine
  • heritage, which dwell solitarily [in] the wood, in the midst of
  • Carmel:let them feed [in] Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of
  • old.
  • MIC-7:15 According to the days of thy coming out of the land of
  • Egypt will I show unto him marvellous [things].
  • MIC-7:16 The nations shall see and be confounded at all their
  • might:they shall lay [their] hand upon [their] mouth, their ears
  • shall be deaf.
  • MIC-7:17 They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall
  • move out of their holes like worms of the earth:they shall be
  • afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear because of thee.
  • MIC-7:18 Who [is] a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity,
  • and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his
  • heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he
  • delighteth [in] mercy.
  • MIC-7:19 He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us;
  • he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins
  • into the depths of the sea.
  • MIC-7:20 Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, [and] the mercy
  • to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days
  • of old.
