MICAH
- As a dew from the Lord,
- As the showers upon the grass,
- That tarrieth not for man,
- Nor waiteth for the sons of men.
- 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.
- Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries,
- And all thine enemies shall be cut off.
- 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:
- And I will cut off the cities of thy land,
- And throw down all thy strong holds:
- And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand;
- And thou shalt have no more soothsayers:
- 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.
- And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee:
- So will I destroy thy cities.
