00001 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the
truth <00571 >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

sworn <07650 shaba<> (8738) unto our fathers <{00001} >ab> from
the days <03117 yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.
00001 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

bath> riseth up <06965 quwm> (8801) against her mother <00517

law <02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341
>oyeb> (8802) are the men <00582 >enowsh> of his own house
<01004 bayith>.
00006 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117
yowm>, saith <05002 n@>um> (8803) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, that
I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689) thy horses <05483 cuwc> out
of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee, and I will destroy <{00006}

00006 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?
is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <{00006} >abad>
(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq> (8689)
thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
00006 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished
<{00006} >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and
there is none upright <03477 yashar> among men <00120 >adam>:
they all lie in wait <00693 >arab> (8799) for blood <01818 dam>;
they hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his
brother <00251 >ach> with a net <02764 cherem>.
00060 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad>

(8799) stripped <07758 showlal> (8675) <07758 showlal> and naked
<06174 <arowm>: I will make <06213 <asah> (8799) a wailing
<04553 micepd> like the dragons <08577 tanniyn>, and mourning
<{00060} >ebel> as the owls <01323 bath> <03284 ya<anah>.
00068 Mic _ 06 _ 11 Shall I count them pure <02135 zakah> (8799)
with the wicked <07562 resha<> balances <03976 mo>zen>, and with
the bag <03599 kiyc> of deceitful <04820 mirmah> weights
<{00068} >eben>?
00068 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field
<07704 sadeh>, and as plantings <04302 matta<> of a vineyard

stones <{00068} >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and
I will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <03247

00085 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the

hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou shalt
beat in pieces <01854 daqaq> (8689) many <07227 rab> people

00120 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

00120 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <{00120} >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth

but to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to
love <00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212

00120 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the
grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not for
man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <03176 yachal> (8762) for the
sons <01121 ben> of men <{00120} >adam>.
00120 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965

sheba<> shepherds <07462 ra<ah> (8802), and eight <08083
sh@moneh> principal <05257 n@ciyk> men <{00120} >adam>.
00120 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)
assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of

(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;
I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as
the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677) <01224
Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <08432 tavek>

00136 Mic _ 01 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798), all ye people

00136 Mic _ 01 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798), all ye people

00145 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341

<{00145} >eder> with <04136 muwl> the garment <08008 salmah>
from them that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983
betach> as men averse <07725 shuwb> (8803) from war <04421
milchamah>.
00157 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <08130 sane>> (8802) the good

ra<>; who pluck off <01497 gazal> (8802) their skin <05785 <owr>
from off them, and their flesh <07607 sh@>er> from off their
bones <06106 <etsem>;
00160 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee, but
to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love
<{00160} >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212
yalak> (8800) humbly <06800 tsana<> (8687) with thy God <00430
>elohiym>?
00175 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)
out of the land <00776 >erets> of Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim>, and
redeemed <06299 padah> (8804) thee out of the house <01004
bayith> of servants <05650 <ebed>; and I sent <07971 shalach>
(8799) before <06440 paniym> thee Moses <04872 Mosheh>, Aaron
<{00175} >Aharown>, and Miriam <04813 Miryam>.
00183 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as
when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019
qayits>, as the grapegleanings <05955 <olelah> of the vintage
<01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to eat
<00398 >akal> (8800): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <{00183}
>avah> (8765) the firstripe fruit <01063 bikkuwrah>.
00199 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <{00199} >uwlam> I am full
<04390 male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit <07307
ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment <04941

<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his sin <02403

00205 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

pa<al> (8802) evil <07451 ra<> upon their beds <04904 mishkab>!
when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they
practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in
the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
00214 Mic _ 06 _ 10 Are there <00786 >ish> yet the treasures
<{00214} >owtsar> of wickedness <07562 resha<> (8676) <00376

and the scant <07332 razown> measure <00374 >eyphah> that is
abominable <02194 za<am> (8803)?
00216 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,
O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>
(8804), I shall arise <06965 quwm> (8804); when I sit <03427
yashab> (8799) in darkness <02822 choshek>, the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> shall be a light <{00216} >owr> unto me.
00216 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

pa<al> (8802) evil <07451 ra<> upon their beds <04904 mishkab>!
when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <{00216} >owr>, they
practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in
the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
00216 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead
<07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute <06213
<asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will bring me
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <{00216} >owr>, and I
shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666
ts@daqah>.
00241 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200
ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <00954 buwsh> (8799) at all
their might <01369 g@buwrah>: they shall lay <07760 suwm> (8799)
their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears
<{00241} >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).
00251 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414
nathan> (8799), until the time <06256 <eth> that she which
travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>
(8804): then the remnant <03499 yether> of his brethren <{00251}
>ach> shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) unto the children <01121
ben> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
00251 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished
<00006 >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and there
is none upright <03477 yashar> among men <00120 >adam>: they all
lie in wait <00693 >arab> (8799) for blood <01818 dam>; they
hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his brother
<{00251} >ach> with a net <02764 cherem>.
00256 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri
<06018 <Omriy> are kept <08104 shamar> (8691), and all the works
<04639 ma<aseh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Ahab <{00256}
>Ach>ab>, and ye walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in their counsels
<04156 mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> (8800) thee
a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>
(8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall
bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my
people <05971 <am>.
00271 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

Ahaz <{00271} >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings

chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
00319 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <{00319} >achariyth> days
<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022

shall be established <03559 kuwn> (8737) in the top <07218

<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and people
<05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.
00341 Mic _ 05 _ 09 Thine hand <03027 yad> shall be lifted up

thine enemies <{00341} >oyeb> (8802) shall be cut off <03772

00341 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,
O mine enemy <{00341} >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>
(8804), I shall arise <06965 quwm> (8804); when I sit <03427
yashab> (8799) in darkness <02822 choshek>, the LORD <03068

00341 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <{00341}

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men
averse <07725 shuwb> (8803) from war <04421 milchamah>.
00341 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

00341 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <{00341} >oyeb>

00341 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of
Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, like a woman in travail <03205 yalad>
(8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) out of
the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931 shakan>

00352 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

00376 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)

afraid <02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) it.
00376 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields
<07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);
and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375 nasa>>
(8804): so they oppress <06231 <ashaq> (8804) a man <01397

and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.
00376 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished
<00006 >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and there

00376 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <{00376} >iysh>

controversy <07379 riyb> with his people <05971 <am>, and he
will plead <03198 yakach> (8691) with Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
00391 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <05414 nathan>

00398 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as
when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019

<01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to eat
<{00398} >akal> (8800): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <00183
>avah> (8765) the firstripe fruit <01063 bikkuwrah>.
00398 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <{00398} >akal> (8799), but

<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403

00410 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they
practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in
the power <{00410} >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
00410 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <{00410} >el> like unto thee,
that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and
passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588 pesha<>

00430 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

00430 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there
is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <{00430} >elohiym>.
00430 Mic _ 04 _ 05 For all people <05971 <am> will walk <03212

burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a
year <08141 shaneh> old <01121 ben>?
00430 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love

00430 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the

move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068

00430 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)

00480 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <{00480} >al@lay> is me! for I am as

00505 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

00505 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>

Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <04163 mowtsa>ah>
have been from of old <06924 qedem>, from everlasting <03117

00517 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

riseth up <06965 quwm> (8801) against her mother <{00517} >em>,
the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her mother in law
<02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341 >oyeb>

00539 Mic _ 07 _ 05 Trust <{00539} >aman> (8686) ye not in a

lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <02436 cheyq>.
00559 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

<{00559} >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <02610 chaneph>

00559 Mic _ 06 _ 01 6 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye now what the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> saith <{00559} >amar> (8802); Arise <06965

00559 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <{00559} >amar> (8799), Hear
<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the
house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for
you to know <03045 yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?
00559 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <{00559} >amar> (8803)
the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit

qatsar> (8804)? are these his doings <04611 ma<alal>? do not my
words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him that
walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?
00559 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <{00559} >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940
mishpachah> do I devise <02803 chashab> (8802) an evil <07451

haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil
<07451 ra<>.
00559 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955

<{00559} >amar> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> thy God <00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall
behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down
<04823 mirmac> as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <02351

00559 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <{00559} >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite <05391
nashak> (8802) with their teeth <08127 shen>, and cry <07121

nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they even
prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <04421 milchamah> against him.
00559 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199

<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire <04242
m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine <07080
qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they lean
<08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and say
<{00559} >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among
<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935 bow>>
(8799) upon us.
00559 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up

lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <{00559} >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he
hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
00559 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <01471 gowy>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)
to the mountain <02022 har> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and to

00571 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the
truth <{00571} >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

00582 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her mother in law
<02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341 >oyeb>

00605 Mic _ 01 _ 09 For her wound <04347 makkah> is incurable

gate <08179 sha<ar> of my people <05971 <am>, even to Jerusalem

00622 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

00622 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002

the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677) <01224

00622 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)

00639 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <06213 <asah> (8804)
vengeance <05359 naqam> in anger <{00639} >aph> and fury <02534

heard <08085 shama<> (8804).
00639 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,
that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and

<02654 chaphets> (8804) in mercy <02617 checed>.
00657 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and

00693 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

00734 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <01471 gowy>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)

00738 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the

their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <{00855} >eth>, and

nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a

they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.
00857 Mic _ 04 _ 08 6 And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the

00894 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of

<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the
midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a

00935 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier

perplexity <03998 m@buwkah>.
00935 Mic _ 07 _ 12 In that day <03117 yowm> also he shall come

00935 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto
you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the sun

prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark
<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
00935 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965

shall tread <01869 darak> (8799) in our palaces <00759 >armown>,
then shall we raise <06965 quwm> (8689) against him seven <07651

00935 Mic _ 04 _ 08 6 And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the

the first <07223 ri>shown> dominion <04475 memshalah>; the
kingdom <04467 mamlakah> shall come <{00935} bow>> (8804) to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
00935 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <07462 ra<ah> (8804)
the land <00776 >erets> of Assyria <00804 >Ashshuwr> with the
sword <02719 chereb>, and the land <00776 >erets> of Nimrod
<05248 Nimrowd> in the entrances <06607 pethach> thereof: thus
shall he deliver <05337 natsal> (8689) us from the Assyrian

land <00776 >erets>, and when he treadeth <01869 darak> (8799)
within our borders <01366 g@buwl>.
00935 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199

<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire <04242
m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine <07080
qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they lean
<08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and say
<00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among
<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <{00935} bow>>

00935 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of

00954 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <02374 chozeh> be
ashamed <{00954} buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <07080 qacam>

cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there
is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.
00954 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200
ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <{00954} buwsh> (8799) at all

their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears
<00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).
00955 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <{00955}
buwshah> shall cover <03680 kacah> (8762) her which said <00559

<00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold <07200
ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823 mirmac>
as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <02351 chuwts>.
00982 Mic _ 07 _ 05 Trust <00539 >aman> (8686) ye not in a
friend <07453 rea<>, put ye not confidence <{00982} batach>

the doors <06607 pethach> of thy mouth <06310 peh> from her that
lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <02436 cheyq>.
00983 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <{00983} betach> as
men averse <07725 shuwb> (8803) from war <04421 milchamah>.
00990 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased
<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams
<00352 >ayil>, or with ten thousands <07233 r@babah> of rivers
<05158 nachal> of oil <08081 shemen>? shall I give <05414
nathan> (8799) my firstborn <01060 b@kowr> for my transgression
<06588 pesha<>, the fruit <06529 p@riy> of my body <{00990}
beten> for the sin <02403 chatta>ah> of my soul <05315 nephesh>?
00995 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
neither understand <{00995} biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098
<etsah>: for he shall gather <06908 qabats> (8765) them as the
sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.
01004 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <05414 nathan>
(8799) presents <07964 shilluwach> to Moreshethgath <04182
Mowresheth Gath>: the houses <{01004} bayith> of Achzib <00392
>Akziyb> shall be a lie <00391 >akzab> to the kings <04428
melek> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
01004 Mic _ 06 _ 10 Are there <00786 >ish> yet the treasures
<00214 >owtsar> of wickedness <07562 resha<> (8676) <00376

rasha<>, and the scant <07332 razown> measure <00374 >eyphah>
that is abominable <02194 za<am> (8803)?
01004 Mic _ 02 _ 09 The women <00802 >ishshah> of my people
<05971 <am> have ye cast out <01644 garash> (8762) from their

children <05768 <owlel> have ye taken away <03947 laqach> (8799)
my glory <01926 hadar> for ever <05769 <owlam>.
01004 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear
<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the
house <{01004} bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for
you to know <03045 yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?
01004 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for
your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a

become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the
house <{01004} bayith> as the high places <01116 bamah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>.
01004 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields
<07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);
and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375 nasa>>
(8804): so they oppress <06231 <ashaq> (8804) a man <01397

and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.
01004 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields

01004 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) this, I pray you,

01004 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) this, I pray you,

<aqash> (8762) all equity <03477 yashar>.
01004 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)
out of the land <00776 >erets> of Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim>, and
redeemed <06299 padah> (8804) thee out of the house <{01004}
bayith> of servants <05650 <ebed>; and I sent <07971 shalach>
(8799) before <06440 paniym> thee Moses <04872 Mosheh>, Aaron

01004 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)
the house <{01004} bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the
spirit <07307 ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> straitened
<07114 qatsar> (8804)? are these his doings <04611 ma<alal>? do
not my words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him
that walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?
01004 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034
nabel> (8764) the father <00001 >ab>, the daughter <01323 bath>
riseth up <06965 quwm> (8801) against her mother <00517 >em>,
the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her mother in law

bayith>.
01004 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403
chatta>ah> of the house <{01004} bayith> of Israel <03478

01004 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days

01063 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as
when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019

01109 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142

B@<owr> answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851

01116 Mic _ 01 _ 03 For, behold, the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> cometh
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8802) out of his place <04725 maqowm>, and

01116 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for
your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a
field <07704 sadeh>, and Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim> shall

house <01004 bayith> as the high places <{01116} bamah> of the

01116 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403
chatta>ah> of the house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478

<03290 Ya<aqob>? is it not Samaria <08111 Shom@rown>? and what
are the high places <{01116} bamah> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>?
are they not Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>?
01121 Mic _ 01 _ 16 Make thee bald <07139 qarach> (8798), and
poll <01494 gazaz> (8798) thee for thy delicate <08588 ta<anuwg>

burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a
year <08141 shaneh> old <{01121} ben>?
01121 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414
nathan> (8799), until the time <06256 <eth> that she which
travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>

01121 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the

01350 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour

their ears <00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).
01369 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390

01389 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days

<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <{01389} gib<ah>; and
people <05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.
01397 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields
<07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);
and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375 nasa>>
(8804): so they oppress <06231 <ashaq> (8804) a man <{01397}
geber> and his house <01004 bayith>, even a man <00376 >iysh>
and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.
01413 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <{01413} gadad> (8704) thyself

01419 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the prince
<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <08199

great <{01419} gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his
mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap
it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
01431 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and
feed <07462 ra<ah> (8804) in the strength <05797 <oz> of the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, in the majesty <01347 ga>own> of the name
<08034 shem> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> his God <00430

01447 Mic _ 07 _ 11 In the day <03117 yowm> that thy walls

day <03117 yowm> shall the decree <02706 choq> be far removed
<07368 rachaq> (8799).
01471 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <06213 <asah> (8804)
vengeance <05359 naqam> in anger <00639 >aph> and fury <02534
chemah> upon the heathen <{01471} gowy>, such as they have not
heard <08085 shama<> (8804).
01471 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <{01471}
gowy> are gathered <00622 >acaph> (8738) against thee, that say

and let our eye <05869 <ayin> look <02372 chazah> (8799) upon
Zion <06726 Tsiyown>.
01471 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <{01471} gowy> shall see <07200

their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears
<00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).
01471 Mic _ 04 _ 07 And I will make <07760 suwm> (8804) her that
halted <06760 tsala<> (8802) a remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth>, and
her that was cast far off <01972 hala>> (8737) a strong <06099

shall reign <04427 malak> (8804) over them in mount <02022 har>
Zion <06726 Tsiyown> from henceforth, even for <05704 <ad> ever
<05769 <owlam>.
01471 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <{01471} gowy> in
the midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>
as a lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the

can deliver <05337 natsal> (8688).
01471 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198

nation <{01471} gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a

they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.

01471 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <{01471} gowy>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)

his ways <01870 derek>, and we will walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in
his paths <00734 >orach>: for the law <08451 towrah> shall go

01537 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142

Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>

01540 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

will discover <{01540} galah> (8762) the foundations <03247

01558 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for
your sake <{01558} galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a

become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the
house <01004 bayith> as the high places <01116 bamah> of the

01568 Mic _ 07 _ 14 6 Feed <07462 ra<ah> (8798) thy people

01637 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,

sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <{01637} goren>.
01644 Mic _ 02 _ 09 The women <00802 >ishshah> of my people

holds <04013 mibtsar>:
02119 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the
dust <06083 <aphar> like a serpent <05175 nachash>, they shall
move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <{02119} zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> our God <00430 >elohiym>, and shall fear <03372 yare>>
(8799) because of thee.
02132 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but
thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread
<01869 darak> (8799) the olives <{02132} zayith>, but thou shalt
not anoint <05480 cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <08081 shemen>; and
sweet wine <08492 tiyrowsh>, but shalt not drink <08354 shathah>
(8799) wine <03196 yayin>.
02135 Mic _ 06 _ 11 Shall I count them pure <{02135} zakah>
(8799) with the wicked <07562 resha<> balances <03976 mo>zen>,
and with the bag <03599 kiyc> of deceitful <04820 mirmah>
weights <00068 >eben>?
02142 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <{02142}
zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of
Moab <04124 Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what
Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>
unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <03045 yada<>
(8800) the righteousness <06666 ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah>.
02181 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>
thereof shall be beaten to pieces <03807 kathath> (8714), and
all the hires <00868 >ethnan> thereof shall be burned <08313

<06091 <atsab> thereof will I lay <07760 suwm> (8799) desolate
<08077 sh@mamah>: for she gathered <06908 qabats> (8765) it of
the hire <00868 >ethnan> of an harlot <{02181} zanah> (8802),
and they shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) to the hire <00868

02181 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>

02194 Mic _ 06 _ 10 Are there <00786 >ish> yet the treasures
<00214 >owtsar> of wickedness <07562 resha<> (8676) <00376

and the scant <07332 razown> measure <00374 >eyphah> that is
abominable <{02194} za<am> (8803)?
02197 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <{02197} za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
because I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until
he plead <07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute
<06213 <asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will
bring me forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>,
and I shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666
ts@daqah>.
02199 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <{02199} za<aq> (8799)
unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030
<anah> (8799) them: he will even hide <05641 cathar> (8686) his
face <06440 paniym> from them at that time <06256 <eth>, as they
have behaved themselves ill <07489 ra<a<> (8689) in their doings
<04611 ma<alal>.
02232 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <{02232} zara<> (8799), but
thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread
<01869 darak> (8799) the olives <02132 zayith>, but thou shalt
not anoint <05480 cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <08081 shemen>; and
sweet wine <08492 tiyrowsh>, but shalt not drink <08354 shathah>
(8799) wine <03196 yayin>.
02254 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart
<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496
m@nuwchah>: because it is polluted <02930 tame>> (8800), it
shall destroy <{02254} chabal> (8762) you, even with a sore
<04834 marats> (8737) destruction <02256 chebel>.
02256 Mic _ 02 _ 05 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall
cast <07993 shalak> (8688) a cord <{02256} chebel> by lot <01486
gowral> in the congregation <06951 qahal> of the LORD <03068

02256 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart
<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496

shall destroy <02254 chabal> (8762) you, even with a sore <04834
marats> (8737) destruction <{02256} chebel>.
02312 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier
<{02312} chedeq>: the most upright <03477 yashar> is sharper
than a thorn hedge <04534 m@cuwkah>: the day <03117 yowm> of thy
watchmen <06822 tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486
p@quddah> cometh <00935 bow>> (8804); now shall be their
perplexity <03998 m@buwkah>.
02342 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <{02342} chuwl> (8804)
for good <02896 towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381
yarad> (8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179
sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
02342 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <{02342} chuwl> (8798), and
labour to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323
bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, like a woman in travail <03205
yalad> (8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799)
out of the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931
shakan> (8804) in the field <07704 sadeh>, and thou shalt go
<00935 bow>> (8804) even to Babylon <00894 Babel>; there shalt
thou be delivered <05337 natsal> (8735); there the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> shall redeem <01350 ga>al> (8799) thee from the hand
<03709 kaph> of thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802).
02351 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955
buwshah> shall cover <03680 kacah> (8762) her which said <00559
>amar> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> thy God
<00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold <07200
ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823 mirmac>
as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <{02351} chuwts>.
02372 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471
gowy> are gathered <00622 >acaph> (8738) against thee, that say
<00559 >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <02610 chaneph> (8799),
and let our eye <05869 <ayin> look <{02372} chazah> (8799) upon
Zion <06726 Tsiyown>.
02372 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> that came to Micah <04318 Miykah> the Morasthite <04183
Morashtiy> in the days <03117 yowm> of Jotham <03147 Yowtham>,
Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings
<04428 melek> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>, which he saw <{02372}
chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
02374 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <{02374} chozeh> be
ashamed <00954 buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <07080 qacam>
(8802) confounded <02659 chapher> (8804): yea, they shall all
cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there
is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.
02377 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <{02377} chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto
you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the sun
<08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark
<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
02388 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?
is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>
(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <{02388} chazaq>
(8689) thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
02388 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,
that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and
passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588 pesha<>
of the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of his heritage <05159
nachalah>? he retaineth <{02388} chazaq> (8689) not his anger
<00639 >aph> for ever <05703 <ad>, because he delighteth <02654
chaphets> (8804) in mercy <02617 checed>.
02398 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <{02398} chata>> (8804) against him, until he
plead <07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute
<06213 <asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will
bring me forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>,
and I shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666
ts@daqah>.
02403 Mic _ 06 _ 13 Therefore also will I make thee sick <02470
chalah> (8689) in smiting <05221 nakah> (8687) thee, in making
thee desolate <08074 shamem> (8687) because of thy sins <{02403}
chatta>ah>.
02403 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <07725 shuwb> (8799), he
will have compassion <07355 racham> (8762) upon us; he will
subdue <03533 kabash> (8799) our iniquities <05771 <avon>; and
thou wilt cast <07993 shalak> (8686) all their sins <{02403}
chatta>ah> into the depths <04688 m@tsowlah> of the sea <03220
yam>.
02403 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390
male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit <07307
ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment <04941
mishpat>, and of might <01369 g@buwrah>, to declare <05046
nagad> (8687) unto Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> his transgression
<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his sin <{02403}
chatta>ah>.
02403 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <{02403}
chatta>ah> of the house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478
Yisra>el>. What is the transgression <06588 pesha<> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>? is it not Samaria <08111 Shom@rown>? and what
are the high places <01116 bamah> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>? are
they not Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>?
02403 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot
<04818 merkabah> to the swift beast <07409 rekesh>: she is the
beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <{02403} chatta>ah> to
the daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
02403 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased
<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams
<00352 >ayil>, or with ten thousands <07233 r@babah> of rivers
<05158 nachal> of oil <08081 shemen>? shall I give <05414
nathan> (8799) my firstborn <01060 b@kowr> for my transgression
<06588 pesha<>, the fruit <06529 p@riy> of my body <00990 beten>
for the sin <{02403} chatta>ah> of my soul <05315 nephesh>?
02427 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?
is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>
(8804)? for pangs <{02427} chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq>
(8689) thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
02428 Mic _ 04 _ 13 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) and thresh <01758
duwsh> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>:
for I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thine horn <07161 qeren>
iron <01270 barzel>, and I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thy
hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou shalt
beat in pieces <01854 daqaq> (8689) many <07227 rab> people
<05971 <am>: and I will consecrate <02763 charam> (8689) their
gain <01215 betsa<> unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and their
substance <{02428} chayil> unto the Lord <00113 >adown> of the
whole earth <00776 >erets>.
02436 Mic _ 07 _ 05 Trust <00539 >aman> (8686) ye not in a
friend <07453 rea<>, put ye not confidence <00982 batach> (8799)
in a guide <00441 >alluwph>: keep <08104 shamar> (8798) the
doors <06607 pethach> of thy mouth <06310 peh> from her that
lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <{02436} cheyq>.
02470 Mic _ 06 _ 13 Therefore also will I make thee sick
<{02470} chalah> (8689) in smiting <05221 nakah> (8687) thee, in
making thee desolate <08074 shamem> (8687) because of thy sins
<02403 chatta>ah>.
02505 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he
hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<{02505} chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
02506 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he

it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
02530 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <{02530} chamad> (8804)
fields <07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal>
(8804); and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375
nasa>> (8804): so they oppress <06231 <ashaq> (8804) a man
<01397 geber> and his house <01004 bayith>, even a man <00376
>iysh> and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.
02534 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <06213 <asah> (8804)
vengeance <05359 naqam> in anger <00639 >aph> and fury <{02534}
chemah> upon the heathen <01471 gowy>, such as they have not
heard <08085 shama<> (8804).
02545 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034
nabel> (8764) the father <00001 >ab>, the daughter <01323 bath>
riseth up <06965 quwm> (8801) against her mother <00517 >em>,
the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her mother in law
<{02545} chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) are the men <00582 >enowsh> of his own house <01004
bayith>.
02555 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are
full <04390 male>> (8804) of violence <{02555} chamac>, and the
inhabitants <03427 yashab> (8802) thereof have spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) lies <08267 sheqer>, and their tongue <03956
lashown> is deceitful <07423 r@miyah> in their mouth <06310 peh>.
02595 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)
their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <{02595} chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211
mazmerah>: nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>>
(8799) a sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>,
neither shall they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421
milchamah> any more.
02610 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471
gowy> are gathered <00622 >acaph> (8738) against thee, that say
<00559 >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <{02610} chaneph>
(8799), and let our eye <05869 <ayin> look <02372 chazah> (8799)
upon Zion <06726 Tsiyown>.
02617 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the
truth <00571 >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

the days <03117 yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.
02617 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee, but
to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love
<00160 >ahabah> mercy <{02617} checed>, and to walk <03212

02617 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,
that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and
passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588 pesha<>
of the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of his heritage <05159

<00639 >aph> for ever <05703 <ad>, because he delighteth <02654

02623 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <{02623} chaciyd> man is perished
<00006 >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and there

hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his brother

02654 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,

02659 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <02374 chozeh> be
ashamed <00954 buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <07080 qacam>

cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there
is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.
02706 Mic _ 07 _ 11 In the day <03117 yowm> that thy walls

<07368 rachaq> (8799).
02708 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <{02708} chuqqah> of Omri

a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>
(8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall
bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my
people <05971 <am>.
02719 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <00398 >akal> (8799), but not
be satisfied <07646 saba<> (8799); and thy casting down <03445

shalt take hold <05253 nacag> (8686), but shalt not deliver
<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403

<{02719} chereb>.
02719 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <07462 ra<ah> (8804)
the land <00776 >erets> of Assyria <00804 >Ashshuwr> with the
sword <{02719} chereb>, and the land <00776 >erets> of Nimrod

02719 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198

their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:
nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a

shall they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any

02729 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)
every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <01612 gephen> and under
his fig tree <08384 t@>en>; and none shall make them afraid
<{02729} charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696

02763 Mic _ 04 _ 13 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) and thresh <01758

iron <01270 barzel>, and I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thy
hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou shalt
beat in pieces <01854 daqaq> (8689) many <07227 rab> people

02764 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

02781 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri

bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <{02781} cherpah> of my
people <05971 <am>.
02790 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200
ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <00954 buwsh> (8799) at all

their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears
<00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <{02790} charash> (8799).
02790 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for
your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <{02790} charash> (8735) as a
field <07704 sadeh>, and Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim> shall
become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the
house <01004 bayith> as the high places <01116 bamah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>.
02803 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise
<{02803} chashab> (8802) iniquity <00205 >aven>, and work <06466
pa<al> (8802) evil <07451 ra<> upon their beds <04904 mishkab>!
when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they
practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in
the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
02803 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940
mishpachah> do I devise <{02803} chashab> (8802) an evil <07451

necks <06677 tsavva>r>; neither shall ye go <03212 yalak> (8799)
haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil
<07451 ra<>.
02821 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <{02821} chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804)
unto you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the
sun <08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark
<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
02821 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <{02821} chashak> (8804)

02822 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,
O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>
(8804), I shall arise <06965 quwm> (8804); when I sit <03427
yashab> (8799) in darkness <{02822} choshek>, the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> shall be a light <00216 >owr> unto me.
02896 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <08130 sane>> (8802) the good
<{02896} towb>, and love <00157 >ahab> (8802) the evil <07451
ra<>; who pluck off <01497 gazal> (8802) their skin <05785 <owr>
from off them, and their flesh <07607 sh@>er> from off their
bones <06106 <etsem>;
02896 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804) for
good <{02896} towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381
yarad> (8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179
sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
02896 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <{02896} towb> of them is as a
brier <02312 chedeq>: the most upright <03477 yashar> is sharper
than a thorn hedge <04534 m@cuwkah>: the day <03117 yowm> of thy
watchmen <06822 tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486
p@quddah> cometh <00935 bow>> (8804); now shall be their
perplexity <03998 m@buwkah>.
02896 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <{02896} towb>; and what doth
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee,
but to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to
love <00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212
yalak> (8800) humbly <06800 tsana<> (8687) with thy God <00430
>elohiym>?
02916 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955
buwshah> shall cover <03680 kacah> (8762) her which said <00559
>amar> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> thy God
<00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold <07200
ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823 mirmac>
as the mire <{02916} tiyt> of the streets <02351 chuwts>.
02919 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <{02919} tal> from
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the
grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not for
man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <03176 yachal> (8762) for the
sons <01121 ben> of men <00120 >adam>.
02930 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart
<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496
m@nuwchah>: because it is polluted <{02930} tame>> (8800), it
shall destroy <02254 chabal> (8762) you, even with a sore <04834
marats> (8737) destruction <02256 chebel>.
02963 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the
midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a
lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>, as a young lion <03715 k@phiyr> among the
flocks <05739 <eder> of sheep <06629 tso>n>: who, if he go
through <05674 <abar> (8804), both treadeth down <07429 ramac>
(8804), and teareth in pieces <{02963} taraph> (8804), and none
can deliver <05337 natsal> (8688).
03027 Mic _ 05 _ 12 And I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689)
witchcrafts <03785 kesheph> out of thine hand <{03027} yad>; and
thou shalt have no more soothsayers <06049 <anan> (8781):
03027 Mic _ 05 _ 09 Thine hand <{03027} yad> shall be lifted up
<07311 ruwm> (8799) upon thine adversaries <06862 tsar>, and all
thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802) shall be cut off <03772
karath> (8735).
03027 Mic _ 05 _ 13 Thy graven images <06456 p@ciyl> also will I
cut off <03772 karath> (8689), and thy standing images <04676
matstsebah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee; and thou
shalt no more worship <07812 shachah> (8691) the work <04639
ma<aseh> of thine hands <{03027} yad>.
03027 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200
ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <00954 buwsh> (8799) at all
their might <01369 g@buwrah>: they shall lay <07760 suwm> (8799)
their hand <{03027} yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their
ears <00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).
03027 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise
<02803 chashab> (8802) iniquity <00205 >aven>, and work <06466
pa<al> (8802) evil <07451 ra<> upon their beds <04904 mishkab>!
when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they
practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in
the power <00410 >el> of their hand <{03027} yad>.
03045 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <{03045} yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
neither understand <00995 biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098
<etsah>: for he shall gather <06908 qabats> (8765) them as the
sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.
03045 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear
<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the
house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for
you to know <{03045} yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?
03045 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142
zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of
Moab <04124 Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what
Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>
unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <{03045} yada<>
(8800) the righteousness <06666 ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah>.
03063 Mic _ 01 _ 09 For her wound <04347 makkah> is incurable
<00605 >anash> (8803); for it is come <00935 bow>> (8804) unto
Judah <{03063} Y@huwdah>; he is come <05060 naga<> (8804) unto
the gate <08179 sha<ar> of my people <05971 <am>, even to
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
03063 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> that came to Micah <04318 Miykah> the Morasthite <04183

Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings
<04428 melek> of Judah <{03063} Y@huwdah>, which he saw <02372
chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
03063 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403
chatta>ah> of the house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478
Yisra>el>. What is the transgression <06588 pesha<> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>? is it not Samaria <08111 Shom@rown>? and what
are the high places <01116 bamah> of Judah <{03063} Y@huwdah>?
are they not Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>?
03063 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>
Ephratah <00672 >Ephraath>, though thou be little <06810
tsa<iyr> among the thousands <00505 >eleph> of Judah <{03063}
Y@huwdah>, yet out of thee shall he come forth <03318 yatsa>>
(8799) unto me that is to be ruler <04910 mashal> (8802) in
Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <04163 mowtsa>ah>
have been from of old <06924 qedem>, from everlasting <03117
yowm> <05769 <owlam>.
03068 Mic _ 02 _ 05 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall
cast <07993 shalak> (8688) a cord <02256 chebel> by lot <01486

03068 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

<03468 yesha<>: my God <00430 >elohiym> will hear <08085 shama<>

03068 Mic _ 01 _ 03 For, behold, the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>
cometh forth <03318 yatsa>> (8802) out of his place <04725

<01869 darak> (8804) upon the high places <01116 bamah> of the
earth <00776 >erets>.
03068 Mic _ 06 _ 01 6 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye now what the
LORD <{03068} Y@hovah> saith <00559 >amar> (8802); Arise <06965

03068 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804) for
good <02896 towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381 yarad>
(8804) from the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179

03068 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,
O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>

yashab> (8799) in darkness <02822 choshek>, the LORD <{03068}
Y@hovah> shall be a light <00216 >owr> unto me.
03068 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>,

sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.
03068 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117

that I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689) thy horses <05483

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 05 For all people <05971 <am> will walk <03212

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <{03068} Y@hovah> voice <06963

rod <04294 matteh>, and who hath appointed <03259 ya<ad> (8804)

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)
every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <01612 gephen> and under
his fig tree <08384 t@>en>; and none shall make them afraid
<02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD
<{03068} Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) it.
03068 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <02199 za<aq> (8799)
unto the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030

face <06440 paniym> from them at that time <06256 <eth>, as they
have behaved themselves ill <07489 ra<a<> (8689) in their doings

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 06 6 Wherewith shall I come before <06923

burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a

03068 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)
the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit

words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him that
walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?
03068 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains

03068 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the
LORD <{03068} Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee,
but to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to
love <00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212

03068 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940

haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil
<07451 ra<>.
03068 Mic _ 04 _ 07 And I will make <07760 suwm> (8804) her that
halted <06760 tsala<> (8802) a remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth>, and
her that was cast far off <01972 hala>> (8737) a strong <06099

shall reign <04427 malak> (8804) over them in mount <02022 har>
Zion <06726 Tsiyown> from henceforth, even for <05704 <ad> ever

03068 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the
dust <06083 <aphar> like a serpent <05175 nachash>, they shall
move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <{03068}
Y@hovah> our God <00430 >elohiym>, and shall fear <03372 yare>>

03068 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD

03068 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and

name <08034 shem> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> his God <00430

03068 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and
feed <07462 ra<ah> (8804) in the strength <05797 <oz> of the

03068 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from
the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon

03068 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days
<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022
har> of the house <01004 bayith> of the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>
shall be established <03559 kuwn> (8737) in the top <07218

<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and people
<05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.
03068 Mic _ 02 _ 13 The breaker <06555 parats> (8802) is come up
<05927 <alah> (8804) before <06440 paniym> them: they have

<abar> (8799) the gate <08179 sha<ar>, and are gone out <03318

<05674 <abar> (8799) before <06440 paniym> them, and the LORD
<{03068} Y@hovah> on the head <07218 ro>sh> of them.
03068 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah> be pleased
<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams

<05158 nachal> of oil <08081 shemen>? shall I give <05414
nathan> (8799) my firstborn <01060 b@kowr> for my transgression
<06588 pesha<>, the fruit <06529 p@riy> of my body <00990 beten>
for the sin <02403 chatta>ah> of my soul <05315 nephesh>?
03068 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955

God <00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold
<07200 ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823
mirmac> as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <02351 chuwts>.
03068 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <{03068} Y@hovah>,
because I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until
he plead <07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute
<06213 <asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will
bring me forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>,
and I shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666

03068 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD

him.
03068 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142
zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of

Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>

03117 Mic _ 07 _ 15 According to the days <{03117} yowm> of thy
coming <03318 yatsa>> (8800) out of the land <00776 >erets> of
Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim> will I shew <07200 ra>ah> (8686) unto

03117 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the

sworn <07650 shaba<> (8738) unto our fathers <00001 >ab> from
the days <{03117} yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.
03117 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day

03117 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier

03117 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings

chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
03117 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto
you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the sun
<08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <{03117} yowm> shall be
dark <06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
03117 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days
<{03117} yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022

03117 Mic _ 07 _ 14 6 Feed <07462 ra<ah> (8798) thy people

(8802) solitarily <00910 badad> in the wood <03293 ya<ar>, in
the midst <08432 tavek> of Carmel <03760 Karmel>: let them feed
<07462 ra<ah> (8799) in Bashan <01316 Bashan> and Gilead <01568
Gil<ad>, as in the days <{03117} yowm> of old <05769 <owlam>.
03117 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>
Ephratah <00672 >Ephraath>, though thou be little <06810

Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <04163 mowtsa>ah>

03117 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <{03117} yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he
hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
03147 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

03162 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)
assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of

(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;
I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <{03162} yachad>
as the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677)
<01224 Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <08432

03169 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
03176 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>
(8762) unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; I will wait <{03176}
yachal> (8686) for the God <00430 >elohiym> of my salvation
<03468 yesha<>: my God <00430 >elohiym> will hear <08085 shama<>
(8799) me.
03176 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the
grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not for
man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <{03176} yachal> (8762) for the
sons <01121 ben> of men <00120 >adam>.
03190 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)
the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit
<07307 ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> straitened <07114
qatsar> (8804)? are these his doings <04611 ma<alal>? do not my
words <01697 dabar> do good <{03190} yatab> (8686) to him that
walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?
03190 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <{03190} yatab> (8687), the prince
<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <08199
shaphat> (8802) asketh for a reward <07966 shilluwm>; and the
great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his
mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap
it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
03196 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but
thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread
<01869 darak> (8799) the olives <02132 zayith>, but thou shalt
not anoint <05480 cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <08081 shemen>; and
sweet wine <08492 tiyrowsh>, but shalt not drink <08354 shathah>
(8799) wine <{03196} yayin>.
03196 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking
<01980 halak> (8802) in the spirit <07307 ruwach> and falsehood
<08267 sheqer> do lie <03576 kazab> (8765), saying, I will
prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <{03196} yayin>
and of strong drink <07941 shekar>; he shall even be the prophet
<05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.
03198 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains

the earth <00776 >erets>: for the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> hath a
controversy <07379 riyb> with his people <05971 <am>, and he
will plead <{03198} yakach> (8691) with Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
03198 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <{03198}
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)
their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:
nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a
sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>, neither shall
they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.
03205 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?
is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>
(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq> (8689)
thee as a woman in travail <{03205} yalad> (8802).
03205 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414

travaileth <{03205} yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205

03205 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of

the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931 shakan>
(8804) in the field <07704 sadeh>, and thou shalt go <00935

03212 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart
<{03212} yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496

03212 Mic _ 04 _ 05 For all people <05971 <am> will walk <03212

03212 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O

evil <07451 ra<>.
03212 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri

03247 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I
will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <{03247}

03259 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> voice <06963

03284 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad>

<00060 >ebel> as the owls <01323 bath> <{03284} ya<anah>.
03289 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?
is thy counsellor <{03289} ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>
(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq> (8689)
thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
03289 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142

03290 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)

Jacob <{03290} Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of

not forth <{03318} yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <04553 micepd>
of Bethezel <01018 Beyth ha->etsel>; he shall receive <03947

03318 Mic _ 02 _ 13 The breaker <06555 parats> (8802) is come up

03318 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead

the first <07223 ri>shown> dominion <04475 memshalah>; the
kingdom <04467 mamlakah> shall come <00935 bow>> (8804) to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <{03389} Y@ruwshalaim>.
03389 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <01471 gowy>
shall come <01980 halak> (8804), and say <00559 >amar> (8804),
Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)
to the mountain <02022 har> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and to
the house <01004 bayith> of the God <00430 >elohiym> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>; and he will teach <03384 yarah> (8686) us of
his ways <01870 derek>, and we will walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in
his paths <00734 >orach>: for the law <08451 towrah> shall go
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, and the
word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> from Jerusalem
<{03389} Y@ruwshalaim>.
03423 Mic _ 01 _ 15 Yet will I bring <00935 bow>> (8686) an heir
<{03423} yarash> (8802) unto thee, O inhabitant <03427 yashab>

Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
03426 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise
<02803 chashab> (8802) iniquity <00205 >aven>, and work <06466
pa<al> (8802) evil <07451 ra<> upon their beds <04904 mishkab>!
when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they
practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <{03426} yesh>
in the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
03427 Mic _ 07 _ 13 Notwithstanding the land <00776 >erets>
shall be desolate <08077 sh@mamah> because of them that dwell
<{03427} yashab> (8802) therein, for the fruit <06529 p@riy> of
their doings <04611 ma<alal>.
03427 Mic _ 01 _ 15 Yet will I bring <00935 bow>> (8686) an heir
<03423 yarash> (8802) unto thee, O inhabitant <{03427} yashab>

Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
03427 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <{03427} yashab> (8802)
of Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804)
for good <02896 towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381
yarad> (8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179
sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
03427 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,
O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>

yashab> (8799) in darkness <02822 choshek>, the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> shall be a light <00216 >owr> unto me.
03427 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are
full <04390 male>> (8804) of violence <02555 chamac>, and the
inhabitants <{03427} yashab> (8802) thereof have spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) lies <08267 sheqer>, and their tongue <03956
lashown> is deceitful <07423 r@miyah> in their mouth <06310 peh>.
03427 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <{03427} yashab> (8804)
every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <01612 gephen> and under
his fig tree <08384 t@>en>; and none shall make them afraid
<02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) it.
03427 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and
feed <07462 ra<ah> (8804) in the strength <05797 <oz> of the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, in the majesty <01347 ga>own> of the name
<08034 shem> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> his God <00430

shall he be great <01431 gadal> (8799) unto the ends <00657

03427 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <{03427} yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot

beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <02403 chatta>ah> to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
03427 Mic _ 01 _ 11 Pass ye away <05674 <abar> (8798), thou
inhabitant <{03427} yashab> (8802) of Saphir <08208 Shaphiyr>,
having thy shame <01322 bosheth> naked <06181 <eryah>: the
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Zaanan <06630 Tsa>anan> came
not forth <03318 yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <04553 micepd>
of Bethezel <01018 Beyth ha->etsel>; he shall receive <03947

03427 Mic _ 01 _ 11 Pass ye away <05674 <abar> (8798), thou

<03947 laqach> (8799) of you his standing <05979 <emdah>.
03427 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri
<06018 <Omriy> are kept <08104 shamar> (8691), and all the works
<04639 ma<aseh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Ahab <00256
>Ach>ab>, and ye walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in their counsels
<04156 mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> (8800) thee
a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <{03427}
yashab> (8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye
shall bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of
my people <05971 <am>.
03445 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <00398 >akal> (8799), but not
be satisfied <07646 saba<> (8799); and thy casting down <{03445}
yeshach> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of thee; and thou
shalt take hold <05253 nacag> (8686), but shalt not deliver
<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403
palat> (8762) will I give up <05414 nathan> (8799) to the sword
<02719 chereb>.
03468 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>
(8762) unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; I will wait <03176 yachal>
(8686) for the God <00430 >elohiym> of my salvation <{03468}
yesha<>: my God <00430 >elohiym> will hear <08085 shama<> (8799)
me.
03477 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier
<02312 chedeq>: the most upright <{03477} yashar> is sharper
than a thorn hedge <04534 m@cuwkah>: the day <03117 yowm> of thy
watchmen <06822 tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486
p@quddah> cometh <00935 bow>> (8804); now shall be their
perplexity <03998 m@buwkah>.
03477 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) this, I pray you,
ye heads <07218 ro>sh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>, and princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the house <01004
bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>, that abhor <08581 ta<ab>
(8764) judgment <04941 mishpat>, and pervert <06140 <aqash>
(8762) all equity <{03477} yashar>.
03477 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished
<00006 >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and there
is none upright <{03477} yashar> among men <00120 >adam>: they
all lie in wait <00693 >arab> (8799) for blood <01818 dam>; they
hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his brother
<00251 >ach> with a net <02764 cherem>.
03477 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)
the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit
<07307 ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> straitened <07114
qatsar> (8804)? are these his doings <04611 ma<alal>? do not my
words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him that
walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <{03477} yashar>?
03478 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <05414 nathan>
(8799) presents <07964 shilluwach> to Moreshethgath <04182
Mowresheth Gath>: the houses <01004 bayith> of Achzib <00392
>Akziyb> shall be a lie <00391 >akzab> to the kings <04428
melek> of Israel <{03478} Yisra>el>.
03478 Mic _ 01 _ 15 Yet will I bring <00935 bow>> (8686) an heir
<03423 yarash> (8802) unto thee, O inhabitant <03427 yashab>
(8802) of Mareshah <04762 Mar>eshah>: he shall come <00935 bow>>
(8799) unto Adullam <05725 <Adullam> the glory <03519 kabowd> of
Israel <{03478} Yisra>el>.
03478 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear
<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the
house <01004 bayith> of Israel <{03478} Yisra>el>; Is it not for
you to know <03045 yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?
03478 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414
nathan> (8799), until the time <06256 <eth> that she which
travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>
(8804): then the remnant <03499 yether> of his brethren <00251
>ach> shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) unto the children <01121
ben> of Israel <{03478} Yisra>el>.
03478 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) this, I pray you,
ye heads <07218 ro>sh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>, and princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the house <01004

(8764) judgment <04941 mishpat>, and pervert <06140 <aqash>
(8762) all equity <03477 yashar>.
03478 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <01413 gadad> (8704) thyself in
troops <01416 g@duwd>, O daughter <01323 bath> of troops <01416
g@duwd>: he hath laid <07760 suwm> (8804) siege <04692 matsowr>
against us: they shall smite <05221 nakah> (8686) the judge
<08199 shaphat> (8802) of Israel <{03478} Yisra>el> with a rod
<07626 shebet> upon the cheek <03895 l@chiy>.
03478 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390
male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit <07307
ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment <04941

nagad> (8687) unto Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> his transgression
<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <{03478} Yisra>el> his sin <02403
chatta>ah>.
03478 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains
<02022 har>, the LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> controversy <07379 riyb>,
and ye strong <00386 >eythan> foundations <04146 mowcadah> of
the earth <00776 >erets>: for the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> hath a
controversy <07379 riyb> with his people <05971 <am>, and he
will plead <03198 yakach> (8691) with Israel <{03478} Yisra>el>.
03478 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403
chatta>ah> of the house <01004 bayith> of Israel <{03478}
Yisra>el>. What is the transgression <06588 pesha<> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>? is it not Samaria <08111 Shom@rown>? and what
are the high places <01116 bamah> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>? are
they not Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>?
03478 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot
<04818 merkabah> to the swift beast <07409 rekesh>: she is the
beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <02403 chatta>ah> to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <{03478} Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
03478 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>
Ephratah <00672 >Ephraath>, though thou be little <06810
tsa<iyr> among the thousands <00505 >eleph> of Judah <03063
Y@huwdah>, yet out of thee shall he come forth <03318 yatsa>>
(8799) unto me that is to be ruler <04910 mashal> (8802) in
Israel <{03478} Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <04163 mowtsa>ah>
have been from of old <06924 qedem>, from everlasting <03117
yowm> <05769 <owlam>.
03478 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)
assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of
thee; I will surely <06908 qabats> (8763) gather <06908 qabats>
(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <{03478}
Yisra>el>; I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162
yachad> as the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah>
(8677) <01224 Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst
<08432 tavek> of their fold <01699 dober>: they shall make great
noise <01949 huwm> (8686) by reason of the multitude of men
<00120 >adam>.
03499 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414
nathan> (8799), until the time <06256 <eth> that she which
travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>
(8804): then the remnant <{03499} yether> of his brethren <00251
>ach> shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) unto the children <01121
ben> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
03519 Mic _ 01 _ 15 Yet will I bring <00935 bow>> (8686) an heir
<03423 yarash> (8802) unto thee, O inhabitant <03427 yashab>
(8802) of Mareshah <04762 Mar>eshah>: he shall come <00935 bow>>
(8799) unto Adullam <05725 <Adullam> the glory <{03519} kabowd>
of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
03533 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <07725 shuwb> (8799), he
will have compassion <07355 racham> (8762) upon us; he will
subdue <{03533} kabash> (8799) our iniquities <05771 <avon>; and
thou wilt cast <07993 shalak> (8686) all their sins <02403
chatta>ah> into the depths <04688 m@tsowlah> of the sea <03220
yam>.
03548 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199
shaphat> (8799) for reward <07810 shachad>, and the priests
<{03548} kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire
<04242 m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine
<07080 qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they
lean <08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and
say <00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among
<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935 bow>>
(8799) upon us.
03559 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days
<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022
har> of the house <01004 bayith> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
shall be established <{03559} kuwn> (8737) in the top <07218
ro>sh> of the mountains <02022 har>, and it shall be exalted
<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and people
<05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.
03576 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking
<01980 halak> (8802) in the spirit <07307 ruwach> and falsehood
<08267 sheqer> do lie <{03576} kazab> (8765), saying, I will
prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <03196 yayin>
and of strong drink <07941 shekar>; he shall even be the prophet
<05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.
03581 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390
male>> (8804) of power <{03581} koach> by the spirit <07307
ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment <04941

<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his sin <02403
chatta>ah>.
03599 Mic _ 06 _ 11 Shall I count them pure <02135 zakah> (8799)
with the wicked <07562 resha<> balances <03976 mo>zen>, and with
the bag <{03599} kiyc> of deceitful <04820 mirmah> weights

03618 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

riseth up <06965 quwm> (8801) against her mother <00517 >em>,
the daughter in law <{03618} kallah> against her mother in law
<02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) are the men <00582 >enowsh> of his own house <01004

03639 Mic _ 02 _ 06 6 Prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) ye not, say
they to them that prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686): they shall not
prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) to them, that they shall not take
<05253 nacag> (8799) shame <{03639} k@limmah>.
03680 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

<00559 >amar> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
thy God <00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold
<07200 ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823
mirmac> as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <02351 chuwts>.
03701 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199
shaphat> (8799) for reward <07810 shachad>, and the priests
<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire <04242
m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine <07080
qacam> (8799) for money <{03701} keceph>: yet will they lean
<08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and say
<00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among
<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935 bow>>
(8799) upon us.
03709 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <{03709} kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the prince
<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <08199
shaphat> (8802) asketh for a reward <07966 shilluwm>; and the
great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his
mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap
it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
03709 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of
Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, like a woman in travail <03205 yalad>
(8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) out of
the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931 shakan>
(8804) in the field <07704 sadeh>, and thou shalt go <00935
bow>> (8804) even to Babylon <00894 Babel>; there shalt thou be
delivered <05337 natsal> (8735); there the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
shall redeem <01350 ga>al> (8799) thee from the hand <{03709}
kaph> of thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802).
03715 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the
midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a
lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>, as a young lion <{03715} k@phiyr> among
the flocks <05739 <eder> of sheep <06629 tso>n>: who, if he go
through <05674 <abar> (8804), both treadeth down <07429 ramac>
(8804), and teareth in pieces <02963 taraph> (8804), and none
can deliver <05337 natsal> (8688).
03721 Mic _ 06 _ 06 6 Wherewith shall I come before <06923

burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a
year <08141 shaneh> old <01121 ben>?
03754 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I
will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <03247

03760 Mic _ 07 _ 14 6 Feed <07462 ra<ah> (8798) thy people

(8802) solitarily <00910 badad> in the wood <03293 ya<ar>, in

03772 Mic _ 05 _ 12 And I will cut off <{03772} karath> (8689)
witchcrafts <03785 kesheph> out of thine hand <03027 yad>; and
thou shalt have no more soothsayers <06049 <anan> (8781):
03772 Mic _ 05 _ 09 Thine hand <03027 yad> shall be lifted up
<07311 ruwm> (8799) upon thine adversaries <06862 tsar>, and all
thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802) shall be cut off <{03772}

03772 Mic _ 05 _ 11 And I will cut off <{03772} karath> (8689)
the cities <06145 <ar> (8676) <05892 <iyr> of thy land <00776

shalt no more worship <07812 shachah> (8691) the work <04639

03772 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117

I will cut off <{03772} karath> (8689) thy horses <05483 cuwc>
out of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee, and I will destroy
<00006 >abad> (8689) thy chariots <04818 merkabah>:
03785 Mic _ 05 _ 12 And I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689)
witchcrafts <{03785} kesheph> out of thine hand <03027 yad>; and
thou shalt have no more soothsayers <06049 <anan> (8781):
03807 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>
thereof shall be beaten to pieces <{03807} kathath> (8714), and
all the hires <00868 >ethnan> thereof shall be burned <08313
saraph> (8735) with the fire <00784 >esh>, and all the idols
<06091 <atsab> thereof will I lay <07760 suwm> (8799) desolate

the hire <00868 >ethnan> of an harlot <02181 zanah> (8802), and
they shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) to the hire <00868
>ethnan> of an harlot <02181 zanah> (8802).
03807 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198

(8765) their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>,
and their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211

(8799) a sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>,
neither shall they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421

03811 Mic _ 06 _ 03 O my people <05971 <am>, what have I done
<06213 <asah> (8804) unto thee? and wherein have I wearied
<{03811} la>ah> (8689) thee? testify <06030 <anah> (8798)
against me.
03863 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <{03863} luw>> a man <00376 >iysh>
walking <01980 halak> (8802) in the spirit <07307 ruwach> and

will prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <03196
yayin> and of strong drink <07941 shekar>; he shall even be the
prophet <05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.
03895 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <01413 gadad> (8704) thyself in
troops <01416 g@duwd>, O daughter <01323 bath> of troops <01416

against us: they shall smite <05221 nakah> (8686) the judge
<08199 shaphat> (8802) of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> with a rod
<07626 shebet> upon the cheek <{03895} l@chiy>.
03897 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <{03897} lachak> (8762) the
dust <06083 <aphar> like a serpent <05175 nachash>, they shall
move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> our God <00430 >elohiym>, and shall fear <03372 yare>>
(8799) because of thee.
03915 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <{03915} layil> shall be
unto you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and
it shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804)
unto you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the
sun <08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark
<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
03923 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <{03923} Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the
chariot <04818 merkabah> to the swift beast <07409 rekesh>: she
is the beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <02403 chatta>ah>
to the daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
03925 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar

their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:
nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a

they learn <{03925} lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.
03947 Mic _ 02 _ 09 The women <00802 >ishshah> of my people
<05971 <am> have ye cast out <01644 garash> (8762) from their
pleasant <08588 ta<anuwg> houses <01004 bayith>; from their
children <05768 <owlel> have ye taken away <{03947} laqach>
(8799) my glory <01926 hadar> for ever <05769 <owlam>.
03947 Mic _ 01 _ 11 Pass ye away <05674 <abar> (8798), thou
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Saphir <08208 Shaphiyr>,
having thy shame <01322 bosheth> naked <06181 <eryah>: the
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Zaanan <06630 Tsa>anan> came
not forth <03318 yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <04553 micepd>
of Bethezel <01018 Beyth ha->etsel>; he shall receive <{03947}
laqach> (8799) of you his standing <05979 <emdah>.
03956 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are
full <04390 male>> (8804) of violence <02555 chamac>, and the
inhabitants <03427 yashab> (8802) thereof have spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) lies <08267 sheqer>, and their tongue <{03956}
lashown> is deceitful <07423 r@miyah> in their mouth <06310 peh>.
03976 Mic _ 06 _ 11 Shall I count them pure <02135 zakah> (8799)
with the wicked <07562 resha<> balances <{03976} mo>zen>, and
with the bag <03599 kiyc> of deceitful <04820 mirmah> weights

03998 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier
<02312 chedeq>: the most upright <03477 yashar> is sharper than
a thorn hedge <04534 m@cuwkah>: the day <03117 yowm> of thy
watchmen <06822 tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486
p@quddah> cometh <00935 bow>> (8804); now shall be their
perplexity <{03998} m@buwkah>.
04013 Mic _ 05 _ 11 And I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689) the
cities <06145 <ar> (8676) <05892 <iyr> of thy land <00776

daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
04029 Mic _ 04 _ 08 6 And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the

04124 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142
zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of
Moab <{04124} Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what
Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>
unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <03045 yada<>
(8800) the righteousness <06666 ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah>.
04136 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men
averse <07725 shuwb> (8803) from war <04421 milchamah>.
04146 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains

the earth <00776 >erets>: for the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> hath a
controversy <07379 riyb> with his people <05971 <am>, and he
will plead <03198 yakach> (8691) with Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
04156 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri
<06018 <Omriy> are kept <08104 shamar> (8691), and all the works

>Ach>ab>, and ye walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in their counsels
<{04156} mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> (8800)
thee a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427
yashab> (8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye
shall bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of
my people <05971 <am>.
04163 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>
Ephratah <00672 >Ephraath>, though thou be little <06810
tsa<iyr> among the thousands <00505 >eleph> of Judah <03063

(8799) unto me that is to be ruler <04910 mashal> (8802) in
Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <{04163} mowtsa>ah>
have been from of old <06924 qedem>, from everlasting <03117
yowm> <05769 <owlam>.
04171 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he
hath changed <{04171} muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
04174 Mic _ 01 _ 04 And the mountains <02022 har> shall be
molten <04549 macac> (8738) under him, and the valleys <06010
<emeq> shall be cleft <01234 baqa<> (8691), as wax <01749

waters <04325 mayim> that are poured <05064 nagar> (8716) down a
steep place <{04174} mowrad>.
04182 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <05414 nathan>
(8799) presents <07964 shilluwach> to Moreshethgath <{04182}
Mowresheth Gath>: the houses <01004 bayith> of Achzib <00392

04183 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068

kings <04428 melek> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>, which he saw
<02372 chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
04185 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940
mishpachah> do I devise <02803 chashab> (8802) an evil <07451

haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil
<07451 ra<>.
04185 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be

(8686) it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath
divided <02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
04211 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)

off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)
their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <{04211}
mazmerah>: nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>>
(8799) a sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>,
neither shall they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421

04242 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199
shaphat> (8799) for reward <07810 shachad>, and the priests
<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire
<{04242} m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof
divine <07080 qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will
they lean <08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
and say <00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
among <07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935
bow>> (8799) upon us.
04284 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <{04284} machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
neither understand <00995 biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098
<etsah>: for he shall gather <06908 qabats> (8765) them as the
sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.
04294 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> voice <06963

rod <{04294} matteh>, and who hath appointed <03259 ya<ad>
(8804) it.
04302 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field
<07704 sadeh>, and as plantings <{04302} matta<> of a vineyard
<03754 kerem>: and I will pour down <05064 nagar> (8689) the
stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I
will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <03247
y@cowd> thereof.
04318 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> that came to Micah <{04318} Miykah> the Morasthite
<04183 Morashtiy> in the days <03117 yowm> of Jotham <03147
Yowtham>, Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>,
kings <04428 melek> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>, which he saw
<02372 chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
04325 Mic _ 01 _ 04 And the mountains <02022 har> shall be
molten <04549 macac> (8738) under him, and the valleys <06010
<emeq> shall be cleft <01234 baqa<> (8691), as wax <01749
downag> before <06440 paniym> the fire <00784 >esh>, and as the
waters <{04325} mayim> that are poured <05064 nagar> (8716) down
a steep place <04174 mowrad>.
04347 Mic _ 01 _ 09 For her wound <{04347} makkah> is incurable
<00605 >anash> (8803); for it is come <00935 bow>> (8804) unto
Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>; he is come <05060 naga<> (8804) unto the
gate <08179 sha<ar> of my people <05971 <am>, even to Jerusalem
<03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
04390 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are
full <{04390} male>> (8804) of violence <02555 chamac>, and the
inhabitants <03427 yashab> (8802) thereof have spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) lies <08267 sheqer>, and their tongue <03956
lashown> is deceitful <07423 r@miyah> in their mouth <06310 peh>.
04390 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full
<{04390} male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit
<07307 ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment
<04941 mishpat>, and of might <01369 g@buwrah>, to declare
<05046 nagad> (8687) unto Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> his
transgression <06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his
sin <02403 chatta>ah>.
04393 Mic _ 01 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798), all ye people
<05971 <am>; hearken <07181 qashab> (8685), O earth <00776
>erets>, and all that therein <{04393} m@lo>> is: and let the
Lord <00136 >Adonay> GOD <03069 Y@hovih> be witness <05707 <ed>
against you, the Lord <00136 >Adonay> from his holy <06944
qodesh> temple <01964 heykal>.
04421 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341
>oyeb> (8802): ye pull off <06584 pashat> (8686) the robe <00145
>eder> with <04136 muwl> the garment <08008 salmah> from them
that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men
averse <07725 shuwb> (8803) from war <{04421} milchamah>.
04421 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite <05391
nashak> (8802) with their teeth <08127 shen>, and cry <07121
qara>> (8804), Peace <07965 shalowm>; and he that putteth <05414
nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they even
prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <{04421} milchamah> against
him.
04421 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)
their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:
nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a
sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>, neither shall
they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <{04421} milchamah> any more.
04427 Mic _ 04 _ 07 And I will make <07760 suwm> (8804) her that
halted <06760 tsala<> (8802) a remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth>, and
her that was cast far off <01972 hala>> (8737) a strong <06099
<atsuwm> nation <01471 gowy>: and the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> shall
reign <{04427} malak> (8804) over them in mount <02022 har> Zion
<06726 Tsiyown> from henceforth, even for <05704 <ad> ever
<05769 <owlam>.
04428 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <05414 nathan>
(8799) presents <07964 shilluwach> to Moreshethgath <04182
Mowresheth Gath>: the houses <01004 bayith> of Achzib <00392
>Akziyb> shall be a lie <00391 >akzab> to the kings <{04428}
melek> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
04428 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <{04428} melek> in
thee? is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006
>abad> (8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq>
(8689) thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
04428 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> that came to Micah <04318 Miykah> the Morasthite <04183
Morashtiy> in the days <03117 yowm> of Jotham <03147 Yowtham>,
Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings
<{04428} melek> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>, which he saw <02372
chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
04428 Mic _ 02 _ 13 The breaker <06555 parats> (8802) is come up
<05927 <alah> (8804) before <06440 paniym> them: they have
broken up <06555 parats> (8804), and have passed through <05674
<abar> (8799) the gate <08179 sha<ar>, and are gone out <03318
yatsa>> (8799) by it: and their king <{04428} melek> shall pass
<05674 <abar> (8799) before <06440 paniym> them, and the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> on the head <07218 ro>sh> of them.
04428 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142
zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <{04428} melek>
of Moab <04124 Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what
Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>
unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <03045 yada<>
(8800) the righteousness <06666 ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah>.
04467 Mic _ 04 _ 08 6 And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the
flock <05739 <eder> (8677) <04029 Migdal-<Eder>, the strong hold
<06076 <ophel> of the daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726
Tsiyown>, unto thee shall it come <00857 >athah> (8799), even
the first <07223 ri>shown> dominion <04475 memshalah>; the
kingdom <{04467} mamlakah> shall come <00935 bow>> (8804) to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
04475 Mic _ 04 _ 08 6 And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the
flock <05739 <eder> (8677) <04029 Migdal-<Eder>, the strong hold
<06076 <ophel> of the daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726
Tsiyown>, unto thee shall it come <00857 >athah> (8799), even
the first <07223 ri>shown> dominion <{04475} memshalah>; the
kingdom <04467 mamlakah> shall come <00935 bow>> (8804) to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
04496 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart
<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <{04496}
m@nuwchah>: because it is polluted <02930 tame>> (8800), it
shall destroy <02254 chabal> (8762) you, even with a sore <04834
marats> (8737) destruction <02256 chebel>.
04526 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the
dust <06083 <aphar> like a serpent <05175 nachash>, they shall
move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <{04526} micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> our God <00430 >elohiym>, and shall fear <03372 yare>>
(8799) because of thee.
04534 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier
<02312 chedeq>: the most upright <03477 yashar> is sharper than
a thorn hedge <{04534} m@cuwkah>: the day <03117 yowm> of thy
watchmen <06822 tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486
p@quddah> cometh <00935 bow>> (8804); now shall be their
perplexity <03998 m@buwkah>.
04549 Mic _ 01 _ 04 And the mountains <02022 har> shall be
molten <{04549} macac> (8738) under him, and the valleys <06010
<emeq> shall be cleft <01234 baqa<> (8691), as wax <01749
downag> before <06440 paniym> the fire <00784 >esh>, and as the
waters <04325 mayim> that are poured <05064 nagar> (8716) down a
steep place <04174 mowrad>.
04553 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad>
(8799) and howl <03213 yalal> (8686), I will go <03212 yalak>
(8799) stripped <07758 showlal> (8675) <07758 showlal> and naked
<06174 <arowm>: I will make <06213 <asah> (8799) a wailing
<{04553} micepd> like the dragons <08577 tanniyn>, and mourning
<00060 >ebel> as the owls <01323 bath> <03284 ya<anah>.
04553 Mic _ 01 _ 11 Pass ye away <05674 <abar> (8798), thou
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Saphir <08208 Shaphiyr>,
having thy shame <01322 bosheth> naked <06181 <eryah>: the
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Zaanan <06630 Tsa>anan> came
not forth <03318 yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <{04553} micepd>
of Bethezel <01018 Beyth ha->etsel>; he shall receive <03947
laqach> (8799) of you his standing <05979 <emdah>.
04611 Mic _ 07 _ 13 Notwithstanding the land <00776 >erets>
shall be desolate <08077 sh@mamah> because of them that dwell
<03427 yashab> (8802) therein, for the fruit <06529 p@riy> of
their doings <{04611} ma<alal>.
04611 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <02199 za<aq> (8799)
unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030
<anah> (8799) them: he will even hide <05641 cathar> (8686) his
face <06440 paniym> from them at that time <06256 <eth>, as they
have behaved themselves ill <07489 ra<a<> (8689) in their doings
<{04611} ma<alal>.
04611 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)
the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit
<07307 ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> straitened <07114
qatsar> (8804)? are these his doings <{04611} ma<alal>? do not
my words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him that
walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?
04617 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <02374 chozeh> be
ashamed <00954 buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <07080 qacam>
(8802) confounded <02659 chapher> (8804): yea, they shall all
cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there
is no answer <{04617} ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.
04639 Mic _ 05 _ 13 Thy graven images <06456 p@ciyl> also will I
cut off <03772 karath> (8689), and thy standing images <04676
matstsebah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee; and thou
shalt no more worship <07812 shachah> (8691) the work <{04639}
ma<aseh> of thine hands <03027 yad>.
04639 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri
<06018 <Omriy> are kept <08104 shamar> (8691), and all the works
<{04639} ma<aseh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Ahab <00256
>Ach>ab>, and ye walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in their counsels
<04156 mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> (8800) thee
a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>
(8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall
bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my
people <05971 <am>.
04672 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot
<04818 merkabah> to the swift beast <07409 rekesh>: she is the
beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <02403 chatta>ah> to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <{04672} matsa>> (8738) in thee.
04676 Mic _ 05 _ 13 Thy graven images <06456 p@ciyl> also will I
cut off <03772 karath> (8689), and thy standing images <{04676}
matstsebah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee; and thou
shalt no more worship <07812 shachah> (8691) the work <04639
ma<aseh> of thine hands <03027 yad>.
04688 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <07725 shuwb> (8799), he
will have compassion <07355 racham> (8762) upon us; he will
subdue <03533 kabash> (8799) our iniquities <05771 <avon>; and
thou wilt cast <07993 shalak> (8686) all their sins <02403
chatta>ah> into the depths <{04688} m@tsowlah> of the sea <03220
yam>.
04692 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <01413 gadad> (8704) thyself in
troops <01416 g@duwd>, O daughter <01323 bath> of troops <01416
g@duwd>: he hath laid <07760 suwm> (8804) siege <{04692}
matsowr> against us: they shall smite <05221 nakah> (8686) the
judge <08199 shaphat> (8802) of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> with a
rod <07626 shebet> upon the cheek <03895 l@chiy>.
04693 Mic _ 07 _ 12 In that day <03117 yowm> also he shall come
<00935 bow>> (8799) even to thee from Assyria <00804 >Ashshuwr>,
and from the fortified <04693 matsowr> cities <05892 <iyr>, and

mountain <02022 har> to mountain <02022 har>.
04693 Mic _ 07 _ 12 In that day <03117 yowm> also he shall come

mountain <02022 har> to mountain <02022 har>.
04714 Mic _ 07 _ 15 According to the days <03117 yowm> of thy
coming <03318 yatsa>> (8800) out of the land <00776 >erets> of
Egypt <{04714} Mitsrayim> will I shew <07200 ra>ah> (8686) unto
him marvellous <06381 pala>> (8737) things.
04714 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)
out of the land <00776 >erets> of Egypt <{04714} Mitsrayim>, and
redeemed <06299 padah> (8804) thee out of the house <01004
bayith> of servants <05650 <ebed>; and I sent <07971 shalach>
(8799) before <06440 paniym> thee Moses <04872 Mosheh>, Aaron

04725 Mic _ 01 _ 03 For, behold, the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> cometh
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8802) out of his place <{04725} maqowm>,
and will come down <03381 yarad> (8804), and tread <01869 darak>
(8804) upon the high places <01116 bamah> of the earth <00776

04762 Mic _ 01 _ 15 Yet will I bring <00935 bow>> (8686) an heir

(8735) myself before the high <{04791} marowm> God <00430

burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a

04796 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Maroth <{04796} Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804)
for good <02896 towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381
yarad> (8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179
sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
04813 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)
out of the land <00776 >erets> of Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim>, and
redeemed <06299 padah> (8804) thee out of the house <01004

04818 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117

04818 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot

beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <02403 chatta>ah> to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
04820 Mic _ 06 _ 11 Shall I count them pure <02135 zakah> (8799)

04823 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>

04834 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart
<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496

04872 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)

04904 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they
practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in
the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
04910 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>

Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <04163 mowtsa>ah>

04912 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <{04912} mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he
hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
04940 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <{04940}
mishpachah> do I devise <02803 chashab> (8802) an evil <07451

necks <06677 tsavva>r>; neither shall ye go <03212 yalak> (8799)
haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil

04941 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear
<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the
house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for

04941 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) this, I pray you,
ye heads <07218 ro>sh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>, and princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the house <01004

(8764) judgment <{04941} mishpat>, and pervert <06140 <aqash>
(8762) all equity <03477 yashar>.
04941 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390

04941 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee, but
to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <{04941} mishpat>, and to love
<00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212 yalak>
(8800) humbly <06800 tsana<> (8687) with thy God <00430
>elohiym>?
04941 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead
<07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute <06213
<asah> (8804) judgment <{04941} mishpat> for me: he will bring
me forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>, and I
shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666
ts@daqah>.
05002 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117
yowm>, saith <{05002} n@>um> (8803) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
that I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689) thy horses <05483
cuwc> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee, and I will destroy
<00006 >abad> (8689) thy chariots <04818 merkabah>:
05002 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <{05002}
n@>um> (8803) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, will I assemble <00622
>acaph> (8799) her that halteth <06760 tsala<> (8802), and I
will gather <06908 qabats> (8762) her that is driven out <05080
nadach> (8737), and her that I have afflicted <07489 ra<a<>
(8689);
05030 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto
you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the sun
<08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <{05030} nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be
dark <06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
05030 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <{05030} nabiy>> that
make my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite
<05391 nashak> (8802) with their teeth <08127 shen>, and cry
<07121 qara>> (8804), Peace <07965 shalowm>; and he that putteth
<05414 nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they
even prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <04421 milchamah> against
him.
05030 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199
shaphat> (8799) for reward <07810 shachad>, and the priests
<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire <04242
m@chiyr>, and the prophets <{05030} nabiy>> thereof divine
<07080 qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they
lean <08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and
say <00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among
<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935 bow>>
(8799) upon us.
05034 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth
<{05034} nabel> (8764) the father <00001 >ab>, the daughter

<00517 >em>, the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her
mother in law <02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies
<00341 >oyeb> (8802) are the men <00582 >enowsh> of his own
house <01004 bayith>.
05046 Mic _ 01 _ 10 Declare <{05046} nagad> (8686) ye it not at
Gath <01661 Gath>, weep <01058 bakah> (8799) ye not at all

<Aphrah> roll <06428 palash> (8690) (8675) <06428 palash> (8694)
thyself in the dust <06083 <aphar>.
05046 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390

<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his sin <02403

05046 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <{05046} nagad> (8689) thee,
O man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee,
but to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to

05060 Mic _ 01 _ 09 For her wound <04347 makkah> is incurable
<00605 >anash> (8803); for it is come <00935 bow>> (8804) unto
Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>; he is come <{05060} naga<> (8804) unto
the gate <08179 sha<ar> of my people <05971 <am>, even to
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
05064 Mic _ 01 _ 04 And the mountains <02022 har> shall be
molten <04549 macac> (8738) under him, and the valleys <06010
<emeq> shall be cleft <01234 baqa<> (8691), as wax <01749

waters <04325 mayim> that are poured <{05064} nagar> (8716) down
a steep place <04174 mowrad>.
05064 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I
will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <03247

05080 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002

05102 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days
<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022

05158 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

05175 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the

move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:

05221 Mic _ 06 _ 13 Therefore also will I make thee sick <02470

05221 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <01413 gadad> (8704) thyself in
troops <01416 g@duwd>, O daughter <01323 bath> of troops <01416

against us: they shall smite <{05221} nakah> (8686) the judge
<08199 shaphat> (8802) of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> with a rod
<07626 shebet> upon the cheek <03895 l@chiy>.
05248 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <07462 ra<ah> (8804)

05253 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <00398 >akal> (8799), but not

<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403

05257 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965

05307 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,
O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <{05307} naphal>

yashab> (8799) in darkness <02822 choshek>, the LORD <03068

05315 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as
when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019

<01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to eat
<00398 >akal> (8800): my soul <{05315} nephesh> desired <00183

05315 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the prince
<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <08199

great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his
mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <{05315} nephesh>: so they
wrap it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
05315 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased
<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams

<06588 pesha<>, the fruit <06529 p@riy> of my body <00990 beten>

05337 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <07462 ra<ah> (8804)
the land <00776 >erets> of Assyria <00804 >Ashshuwr> with the
sword <02719 chereb>, and the land <00776 >erets> of Nimrod
<05248 Nimrowd> in the entrances <06607 pethach> thereof: thus
shall he deliver <{05337} natsal> (8689) us from the Assyrian

land <00776 >erets>, and when he treadeth <01869 darak> (8799)
within our borders <01366 g@buwl>.
05337 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the
midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a
lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>, as a young lion <03715 k@phiyr> among the
flocks <05739 <eder> of sheep <06629 tso>n>: who, if he go
through <05674 <abar> (8804), both treadeth down <07429 ramac>
(8804), and teareth in pieces <02963 taraph> (8804), and none
can deliver <{05337} natsal> (8688).
05337 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of
Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, like a woman in travail <03205 yalad>
(8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) out of
the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931 shakan>
(8804) in the field <07704 sadeh>, and thou shalt go <00935
bow>> (8804) even to Babylon <00894 Babel>; there shalt thou be
delivered <{05337} natsal> (8735); there the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> shall redeem <01350 ga>al> (8799) thee from the hand
<03709 kaph> of thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802).
05359 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <06213 <asah> (8804)
vengeance <{05359} naqam> in anger <00639 >aph> and fury <02534
chemah> upon the heathen <01471 gowy>, such as they have not
heard <08085 shama<> (8804).
05375 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields
<07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);
and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <{05375} nasa>>
(8804): so they oppress <06231 <ashaq> (8804) a man <01397
geber> and his house <01004 bayith>, even a man <00376 >iysh>
and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.
05375 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,
that pardoneth <{05375} nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>,
and passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588
pesha<> of the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of his heritage <05159
nachalah>? he retaineth <02388 chazaq> (8689) not his anger
<00639 >aph> for ever <05703 <ad>, because he delighteth <02654
chaphets> (8804) in mercy <02617 checed>.
05375 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days
<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022
har> of the house <01004 bayith> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
shall be established <03559 kuwn> (8737) in the top <07218

<{05375} nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and
people <05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.
05375 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <{05375} nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead
<07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute <06213
<asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will bring me
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>, and I
shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666
ts@daqah>.
05375 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri
<06018 <Omriy> are kept <08104 shamar> (8691), and all the works

<04156 mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> (8800) thee
a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>
(8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall
bear <{05375} nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my
people <05971 <am>.
05375 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<{05375} nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he
hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
05375 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)
their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:
nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <{05375} nasa>> (8799) a
sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>, neither shall
they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.
05391 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite
<{05391} nashak> (8802) with their teeth <08127 shen>, and cry
<07121 qara>> (8804), Peace <07965 shalowm>; and he that putteth
<05414 nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they
even prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <04421 milchamah> against
him.
05404 Mic _ 01 _ 16 Make thee bald <07139 qarach> (8798), and
poll <01494 gazaz> (8798) thee for thy delicate <08588 ta<anuwg>
children <01121 ben>; enlarge <07337 rachab> (8685) thy baldness
<07144 qorchah> as the eagle <{05404} nesher>; for they are gone
into captivity <01540 galah> (8804) from thee.
05414 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <{05414} nathan>
(8799) presents <07964 shilluwach> to Moreshethgath <04182
Mowresheth Gath>: the houses <01004 bayith> of Achzib <00392

05414 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <{05414} nathan> (8799)
the truth <00571 >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

sworn <07650 shaba<> (8738) unto our fathers <00001 >ab> from
the days <03117 yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.
05414 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <{05414}
nathan> (8799), until the time <06256 <eth> that she which
travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>
(8804): then the remnant <03499 yether> of his brethren <00251

ben> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
05414 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <00398 >akal> (8799), but not
be satisfied <07646 saba<> (8799); and thy casting down <03445

shalt take hold <05253 nacag> (8686), but shalt not deliver
<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403
palat> (8762) will I give up <{05414} nathan> (8799) to the
sword <02719 chereb>.
05414 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

shall bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of
my people <05971 <am>.
05428 Mic _ 05 _ 14 And I will pluck up <{05428} nathash> (8804)
thy groves <00842 >asherah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of

<ar> (8676) <05892 <iyr>.
05480 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but
thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread
<01869 darak> (8799) the olives <02132 zayith>, but thou shalt
not anoint <{05480} cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <08081 shemen>;

05594 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <{05594} caphad>

05856 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for
your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a

burnt offerings <{05930} <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a
year <08141 shaneh> old <01121 ben>?
05955 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as
when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019

<00398 >akal> (8800): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <00183
>avah> (8765) the firstripe fruit <01063 bikkuwrah>.
05971 Mic _ 06 _ 03 O my people <{05971} <am>, what have I done

<03811 la>ah> (8689) thee? testify <06030 <anah> (8798) against

05971 Mic _ 01 _ 09 For her wound <04347 makkah> is incurable
<00605 >anash> (8803); for it is come <00935 bow>> (8804) unto
Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>; he is come <05060 naga<> (8804) unto the
gate <08179 sha<ar> of my people <{05971} <am>, even to
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
05971 Mic _ 02 _ 09 The women <00802 >ishshah> of my people
<{05971} <am> have ye cast out <01644 garash> (8762) from their

my glory <01926 hadar> for ever <05769 <owlam>.
05971 Mic _ 04 _ 05 For all people <{05971} <am> will walk

05971 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking

prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <03196 yayin>

<05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <{05971} <am>.
05971 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<{05971} <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men

05971 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains

controversy <07379 riyb> with his people <{05971} <am>, and he
will plead <03198 yakach> (8691) with Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
05971 Mic _ 03 _ 03 Who also eat <00398 >akal> (8804) the flesh

caldron <07037 qallachath>.
05971 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <07227 rab> people <{05971} <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from

05971 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days
<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022

05971 Mic _ 07 _ 14 6 Feed <07462 ra<ah> (8798) thy people

shakan> (8802) solitarily <00910 badad> in the wood <03293

Gilead <01568 Gil<ad>, as in the days <03117 yowm> of old <05769

05971 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <{05971} <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite

<07121 qara>> (8804), Peace <07965 shalowm>; and he that putteth

him.
05971 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <{05971} <am>, remember <02142
zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of
Moab <04124 Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what
Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>
unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <03045 yada<>
(8800) the righteousness <06666 ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068

05971 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri

>Ach>ab>, and ye walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in their counsels
<04156 mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> (8800) thee
a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>
(8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall
bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my
people <{05971} <am>.
05971 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the
midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <{05971} <am> as
a lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>, as a young lion <03715 k@phiyr> among the
flocks <05739 <eder> of sheep <06629 tso>n>: who, if he go
through <05674 <abar> (8804), both treadeth down <07429 ramac>

can deliver <05337 natsal> (8688).
05971 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he
hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <{05971} <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh>
(8686) it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath
divided <02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
05971 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <{05971} <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)
their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:
nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a
sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>, neither shall
they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.
05971 Mic _ 04 _ 13 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) and thresh <01758

hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou shalt
beat in pieces <01854 daqaq> (8689) many <07227 rab> people
<{05971} <am>: and I will consecrate <02763 charam> (8689) their

substance <02428 chayil> unto the Lord <00113 >adown> of the

05979 Mic _ 01 _ 11 Pass ye away <05674 <abar> (8798), thou
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Saphir <08208 Shaphiyr>,

inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Zaanan <06630 Tsa>anan> came
not forth <03318 yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <04553 micepd>
of Bethezel <01018 Beyth ha->etsel>; he shall receive <03947
laqach> (8799) of you his standing <{05979} <emdah>.
05995 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
neither understand <00995 biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098

sheaves <{05995} <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.
06010 Mic _ 01 _ 04 And the mountains <02022 har> shall be
molten <04549 macac> (8738) under him, and the valleys <{06010}
<emeq> shall be cleft <01234 baqa<> (8691), as wax <01749

06018 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri

06030 Mic _ 06 _ 03 O my people <05971 <am>, what have I done

06030 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <02199 za<aq> (8799)

06174 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad>

06181 Mic _ 01 _ 11 Pass ye away <05674 <abar> (8798), thou
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Saphir <08208 Shaphiyr>,

inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Zaanan <06630 Tsa>anan> came
not forth <03318 yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <04553 micepd>

06212 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of

06213 Mic _ 06 _ 03 O my people <05971 <am>, what have I done

06213 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <{06213} <asah> (8804)
vengeance <05359 naqam> in anger <00639 >aph> and fury <02534

06213 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they
practise <{06213} <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh>
in the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
06213 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad>

06213 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

to do <{06213} <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love
<00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212 yalak>

06213 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead
<07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute <{06213}
<asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will bring me
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>, and I

06223 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <{06223} <ashiyr> thereof

06231 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields
<07704 sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);
and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375 nasa>>
(8804): so they oppress <{06231} <ashaq> (8804) a man <01397
geber> and his house <01004 bayith>, even a man <00376 >iysh>
and his heritage <05159 nachalah>.
06256 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <02199 za<aq> (8799)
unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030

face <06440 paniym> from them at that time <{06256} <eth>, as
they have behaved themselves ill <07489 ra<a<> (8689) in their

06256 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414
nathan> (8799), until the time <{06256} <eth> that she which
travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>

06256 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940

06299 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)

doors <06607 pethach> of thy mouth <{06310} peh> from her that
lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <02436 cheyq>.
06310 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <07200

their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <{06310} peh>, their
ears <00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).
06310 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are

06310 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)

<02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <{06310} peh> of the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696

06310 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD

prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <04421 milchamah> against him.
06342 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the

move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <{06342} pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068

break <06476 patsach> (8765) their bones <06106 <etsem>, and
chop them in pieces <06566 paras> (8804), as for the pot <05518

06588 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390

06588 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <{06588} pesha<> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403

06588 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot

transgressions <{06588} pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
06588 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee,
that pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and

06588 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

06607 Mic _ 07 _ 05 Trust <00539 >aman> (8686) ye not in a

lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <02436 cheyq>.
06607 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <07462 ra<ah> (8804)
the land <00776 >erets> of Assyria <00804 >Ashshuwr> with the
sword <02719 chereb>, and the land <00776 >erets> of Nimrod

shakan> (8802) solitarily <00910 badad> in the wood <03293

them feed <07462 ra<ah> (8799) in Bashan <01316 Bashan> and
Gilead <01568 Gil<ad>, as in the days <03117 yowm> of old <05769

06629 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the

(8804), and teareth in pieces <02963 taraph> (8804), and none
can deliver <05337 natsal> (8688).
06629 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)
assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of
thee; I will surely <06908 qabats> (8763) gather <06908 qabats>
(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;
I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as
the sheep <{06629} tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677)
<01224 Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <08432
tavek> of their fold <01699 dober>: they shall make great noise
<01949 huwm> (8686) by reason of the multitude of men <00120

06630 Mic _ 01 _ 11 Pass ye away <05674 <abar> (8798), thou
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Saphir <08208 Shaphiyr>,
having thy shame <01322 bosheth> naked <06181 <eryah>: the
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Zaanan <{06630} Tsa>anan>
came not forth <03318 yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <04553
micepd> of Bethezel <01018 Beyth ha->etsel>; he shall receive
<03947 laqach> (8799) of you his standing <05979 <emdah>.
06635 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)
every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <01612 gephen> and under
his fig tree <08384 t@>en>; and none shall make them afraid
<02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <{06635} tsaba>> hath spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) it.
06666 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead
<07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute <06213
<asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will bring me
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>, and I
shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <{06666}
ts@daqah>.
06666 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142
zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of
Moab <04124 Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what
Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>
unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <03045 yada<>
(8800) the righteousness <{06666} ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah>.
06677 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940
mishpachah> do I devise <02803 chashab> (8802) an evil <07451
ra<>, from which ye shall not remove <04185 muwsh> (8686) your
necks <{06677} tsavva>r>; neither shall ye go <03212 yalak>
(8799) haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is
evil <07451 ra<>.
06679 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished
<00006 >abad> (8804) out of the earth <00776 >erets>: and there
is none upright <03477 yashar> among men <00120 >adam>: they all
lie in wait <00693 >arab> (8799) for blood <01818 dam>; they
hunt <{06679} tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his brother
<00251 >ach> with a net <02764 cherem>.
06726 Mic _ 03 _ 10 They build up <01129 banah> (8802) Zion
<{06726} Tsiyown> with blood <01818 dam>, and Jerusalem <03389
Y@ruwshalaim> with iniquity <05766 <evel>.
06726 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

<00559 >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <02610 chaneph> (8799),
and let our eye <05869 <ayin> look <02372 chazah> (8799) upon
Zion <{06726} Tsiyown>.
06726 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <{06726} Tsiyown> for
your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a
field <07704 sadeh>, and Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim> shall
become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the
house <01004 bayith> as the high places <01116 bamah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>.
06726 Mic _ 04 _ 07 And I will make <07760 suwm> (8804) her that
halted <06760 tsala<> (8802) a remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth>, and
her that was cast far off <01972 hala>> (8737) a strong <06099

reign <04427 malak> (8804) over them in mount <02022 har> Zion
<{06726} Tsiyown> from henceforth, even for <05704 <ad> ever
<05769 <owlam>.
06726 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot

beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <02403 chatta>ah> to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <{06726} Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
06726 Mic _ 04 _ 08 6 And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the
flock <05739 <eder> (8677) <04029 Migdal-<Eder>, the strong hold

the first <07223 ri>shown> dominion <04475 memshalah>; the
kingdom <04467 mamlakah> shall come <00935 bow>> (8804) to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
06726 Mic _ 04 _ 13 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) and thresh <01758

for I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thine horn <07161 qeren>
iron <01270 barzel>, and I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thy
hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou shalt
beat in pieces <01854 daqaq> (8689) many <07227 rab> people

gain <01215 betsa<> unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and their
substance <02428 chayil> unto the Lord <00113 >adown> of the

06726 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of
Zion <{06726} Tsiyown>, like a woman in travail <03205 yalad>
(8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) out of
the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931 shakan>
(8804) in the field <07704 sadeh>, and thou shalt go <00935

delivered <05337 natsal> (8735); there the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
shall redeem <01350 ga>al> (8799) thee from the hand <03709

06726 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <01471 gowy>
shall come <01980 halak> (8804), and say <00559 >amar> (8804),
Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)
to the mountain <02022 har> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and to
the house <01004 bayith> of the God <00430 >elohiym> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>; and he will teach <03384 yarah> (8686) us of
his ways <01870 derek>, and we will walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in
his paths <00734 >orach>: for the law <08451 towrah> shall go

word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> from Jerusalem

06760 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002

will gather <06908 qabats> (8762) her that is driven out <05080
nadach> (8737), and her that I have afflicted <07489 ra<a<>
(8689);
06760 Mic _ 04 _ 07 And I will make <07760 suwm> (8804) her that
halted <{06760} tsala<> (8802) a remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth>, and
her that was cast far off <01972 hala>> (8737) a strong <06099

<06726 Tsiyown> from henceforth, even for <05704 <ad> ever
<05769 <owlam>.
06800 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love
<00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212 yalak>
(8800) humbly <{06800} tsana<> (8687) with thy God <00430

06810 Mic _ 05 _ 02 But thou, Bethlehem <01035 Beyth Lechem>
Ephratah <00672 >Ephraath>, though thou be little <{06810}
tsa<iyr> among the thousands <00505 >eleph> of Judah <03063

(8799) unto me that is to be ruler <04910 mashal> (8802) in
Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; whose goings forth <04163 mowtsa>ah>
have been from of old <06924 qedem>, from everlasting <03117
yowm> <05769 <owlam>.
06822 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <{06822} tsaphah>
(8762) unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; I will wait <03176 yachal>
(8686) for the God <00430 >elohiym> of my salvation <03468
yesha<>: my God <00430 >elohiym> will hear <08085 shama<> (8799)
me.
06822 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier

a thorn hedge <04534 m@cuwkah>: the day <03117 yowm> of thy
watchmen <{06822} tsaphah> (8764) and thy visitation <06486
p@quddah> cometh <00935 bow>> (8804); now shall be their
perplexity <03998 m@buwkah>.
06862 Mic _ 05 _ 09 Thine hand <03027 yad> shall be lifted up

all thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802) shall be cut off <03772

06908 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
neither understand <00995 biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098
<etsah>: for he shall gather <{06908} qabats> (8765) them as the
sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.
06908 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002

06908 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>
thereof shall be beaten to pieces <03807 kathath> (8714), and
all the hires <00868 >ethnan> thereof shall be burned <08313

the hire <00868 >ethnan> of an harlot <02181 zanah> (8802), and
they shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) to the hire <00868

06908 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)
assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of

06942 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD

06965 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,
O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> (8802): when I fall <05307 naphal>

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men

06965 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965

thy hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou

their substance <02428 chayil> unto the Lord <00113 >adown> of

07019 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as
when they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits

vintage <01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to
eat <00398 >akal> (8800): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <00183

07037 Mic _ 03 _ 03 Who also eat <00398 >akal> (8804) the flesh

<06476 patsach> (8765) their bones <06106 <etsem>, and chop them
in pieces <06566 paras> (8804), as for the pot <05518 ciyr>, and
as flesh <01320 basar> within <08432 tavek> the caldron <{07037}

07080 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <02374 chozeh> be
ashamed <00954 buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <{07080} qacam>

cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <08222 sapham>; for there
is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.
07080 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto
you, that ye shall not divine <{07080} qacam> (8800); and the
sun <08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark
<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
07080 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199

<{07080} qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they
lean <08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and
say <00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among

07101 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear

<aqash> (8762) all equity <03477 yashar>.
07114 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but
thou shalt not reap <{07114} qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread

not anoint <05480 cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <08081 shemen>; and

07114 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)

words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him that
walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?
07121 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> voice <06963

07121 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD

07130 Mic _ 05 _ 14 And I will pluck up <05428 nathash> (8804)

07130 Mic _ 05 _ 13 Thy graven images <06456 p@ciyl> also will I
cut off <03772 karath> (8689), and thy standing images <04676

shalt take hold <05253 nacag> (8686), but shalt not deliver
<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403

Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim> will I shew <{07200} ra>ah> (8686) unto
him marvellous <06381 pala>> (8737) things.
07200 Mic _ 07 _ 16 The nations <01471 gowy> shall see <{07200}
ra>ah> (8799) and be confounded <00954 buwsh> (8799) at all
their might <01369 g@buwrah>: they shall lay <07760 suwm> (8799)
their hand <03027 yad> upon their mouth <06310 peh>, their ears
<00241 >ozen> shall be deaf <02790 charash> (8799).
07200 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> voice <06963
qowl> crieth <07121 qara>> (8799) unto the city <05892 <iyr>,
and the man of wisdom <08454 tuwshiyah> shall see <{07200}
ra>ah> (8799) thy name <08034 shem>: hear <08085 shama<> (8798)
ye the rod <04294 matteh>, and who hath appointed <03259 ya<ad>
(8804) it.
07200 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) shall see <07200 ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955
buwshah> shall cover <03680 kacah> (8762) her which said <00559
>amar> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> thy God
<00430 >elohiym>? mine eyes <05869 <ayin> shall behold <{07200}
ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823 mirmac>
as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <02351 chuwts>.
07200 Mic _ 07 _ 10 Then she that is mine enemy <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) shall see <{07200} ra>ah> (8799) it, and shame <00955
buwshah> shall cover <03680 kacah> (8762) her which said <00559

ra>ah> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823 mirmac>
as the mire <02916 tiyt> of the streets <02351 chuwts>.
07200 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead
<07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute <06213
<asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will bring me
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8686) to the light <00216 >owr>, and I
shall behold <{07200} ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666
ts@daqah>.
07218 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear
<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <{07218} ro>sh> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the
house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for
you to know <03045 yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?
07218 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) this, I pray you,
ye heads <{07218} ro>sh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>, and princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the house <01004
bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>, that abhor <08581 ta<ab>
(8764) judgment <04941 mishpat>, and pervert <06140 <aqash>
(8762) all equity <03477 yashar>.
07218 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days
<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022
har> of the house <01004 bayith> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
shall be established <03559 kuwn> (8737) in the top <{07218}
ro>sh> of the mountains <02022 har>, and it shall be exalted
<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and people
<05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.
07218 Mic _ 02 _ 13 The breaker <06555 parats> (8802) is come up
<05927 <alah> (8804) before <06440 paniym> them: they have
broken up <06555 parats> (8804), and have passed through <05674
<abar> (8799) the gate <08179 sha<ar>, and are gone out <03318
yatsa>> (8799) by it: and their king <04428 melek> shall pass
<05674 <abar> (8799) before <06440 paniym> them, and the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> on the head <{07218} ro>sh> of them.
07218 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <{07218} ro>sh> thereof judge
<08199 shaphat> (8799) for reward <07810 shachad>, and the
priests <03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for
hire <04242 m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof
divine <07080 qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will
they lean <08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
and say <00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
among <07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935
bow>> (8799) upon us.
07223 Mic _ 04 _ 08 6 And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the
flock <05739 <eder> (8677) <04029 Migdal-<Eder>, the strong hold
<06076 <ophel> of the daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726
Tsiyown>, unto thee shall it come <00857 >athah> (8799), even
the first <{07223} ri>shown> dominion <04475 memshalah>; the
kingdom <04467 mamlakah> shall come <00935 bow>> (8804) to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
07225 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot
<04818 merkabah> to the swift beast <07409 rekesh>: she is the
beginning <{07225} re>shiyth> of the sin <02403 chatta>ah> to
the daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
07227 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <{07227} rab> nations <01471
gowy> are gathered <00622 >acaph> (8738) against thee, that say
<00559 >amar> (8802), Let her be defiled <02610 chaneph> (8799),
and let our eye <05869 <ayin> look <02372 chazah> (8799) upon
Zion <06726 Tsiyown>.
07227 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <{07227} rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the
grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not for
man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <03176 yachal> (8762) for the
sons <01121 ben> of men <00120 >adam>.
07227 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the
midst <07130 qereb> of many <{07227} rab> people <05971 <am> as
a lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>, as a young lion <03715 k@phiyr> among the
flocks <05739 <eder> of sheep <06629 tso>n>: who, if he go
through <05674 <abar> (8804), both treadeth down <07429 ramac>
(8804), and teareth in pieces <02963 taraph> (8804), and none
can deliver <05337 natsal> (8688).
07227 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <{07227} rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)
their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:
nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a
sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>, neither shall
they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.
07227 Mic _ 04 _ 13 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) and thresh <01758
duwsh> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>:
for I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thine horn <07161 qeren>
iron <01270 barzel>, and I will make <07760 suwm> (8799) thy
hoofs <06541 parcah> brass <05154 n@chuwshah>: and thou shalt
beat in pieces <01854 daqaq> (8689) many <{07227} rab> people
<05971 <am>: and I will consecrate <02763 charam> (8689) their
gain <01215 betsa<> unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and their
substance <02428 chayil> unto the Lord <00113 >adown> of the
whole earth <00776 >erets>.
07227 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <{07227} rab> nations <01471 gowy>
shall come <01980 halak> (8804), and say <00559 >amar> (8804),
Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)
to the mountain <02022 har> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and to
the house <01004 bayith> of the God <00430 >elohiym> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>; and he will teach <03384 yarah> (8686) us of
his ways <01870 derek>, and we will walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in
his paths <00734 >orach>: for the law <08451 towrah> shall go
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, and the
word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> from Jerusalem
<03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
07233 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased
<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams
<00352 >ayil>, or with ten thousands <{07233} r@babah> of rivers
<05158 nachal> of oil <08081 shemen>? shall I give <05414
nathan> (8799) my firstborn <01060 b@kowr> for my transgression
<06588 pesha<>, the fruit <06529 p@riy> of my body <00990 beten>
for the sin <02403 chatta>ah> of my soul <05315 nephesh>?
07241 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <{07241} rabiyb> upon
the grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not
for man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <03176 yachal> (8762) for the
sons <01121 ben> of men <00120 >adam>.
07264 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the
dust <06083 <aphar> like a serpent <05175 nachash>, they shall
move <{07264} ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> our God <00430 >elohiym>, and shall fear <03372 yare>>
(8799) because of thee.
07307 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking
<01980 halak> (8802) in the spirit <{07307} ruwach> and
falsehood <08267 sheqer> do lie <03576 kazab> (8765), saying, I
will prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <03196
yayin> and of strong drink <07941 shekar>; he shall even be the
prophet <05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.
07307 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)
the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit
<{07307} ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> straitened <07114
qatsar> (8804)? are these his doings <04611 ma<alal>? do not my
words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> (8686) to him that
walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?
07307 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390
male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit <{07307}
ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment <04941
mishpat>, and of might <01369 g@buwrah>, to declare <05046
nagad> (8687) unto Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> his transgression
<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his sin <02403
chatta>ah>.
07311 Mic _ 05 _ 09 Thine hand <03027 yad> shall be lifted up
<{07311} ruwm> (8799) upon thine adversaries <06862 tsar>, and
all thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> (8802) shall be cut off <03772
karath> (8735).
07317 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940
mishpachah> do I devise <02803 chashab> (8802) an evil <07451
ra<>, from which ye shall not remove <04185 muwsh> (8686) your
necks <06677 tsavva>r>; neither shall ye go <03212 yalak> (8799)
haughtily <{07317} rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil
<07451 ra<>.
07321 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <{07321} ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?
is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>
(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq> (8689)
thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
07332 Mic _ 06 _ 10 Are there <00786 >ish> yet the treasures
<00214 >owtsar> of wickedness <07562 resha<> (8676) <00376
>iysh> in the house <01004 bayith> of the wicked <07563 rasha<>,
and the scant <{07332} razown> measure <00374 >eyphah> that is
abominable <02194 za<am> (8803)?
07337 Mic _ 01 _ 16 Make thee bald <07139 qarach> (8798), and
poll <01494 gazaz> (8798) thee for thy delicate <08588 ta<anuwg>
children <01121 ben>; enlarge <{07337} rachab> (8685) thy
baldness <07144 qorchah> as the eagle <05404 nesher>; for they
are gone into captivity <01540 galah> (8804) from thee.
07350 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <{07350} rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath>
(8765) their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>,
and their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211

(8799) a sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>,
neither shall they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421
milchamah> any more.
07355 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <07725 shuwb> (8799), he
will have compassion <{07355} racham> (8762) upon us; he will
subdue <03533 kabash> (8799) our iniquities <05771 <avon>; and
thou wilt cast <07993 shalak> (8686) all their sins <02403
chatta>ah> into the depths <04688 m@tsowlah> of the sea <03220
yam>.
07368 Mic _ 07 _ 11 In the day <03117 yowm> that thy walls
<01447 gader> are to be built <01129 banah> (8800), in that day
<03117 yowm> shall the decree <02706 choq> be far removed

07378 Mic _ 06 _ 01 6 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye now what the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> saith <00559 >amar> (8802); Arise <06965

07378 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead

07409 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot

transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were

07423 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are
full <04390 male>> (8804) of violence <02555 chamac>, and the

07429 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the

forest <03293 ya<ar>, as a young lion <03715 k@phiyr> among the

07451 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <08130 sane>> (8802) the good

07451 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804) for
good <02896 towb>: but evil <{07451} ra<> came down <03381
yarad> (8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179
sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
07451 Mic _ 02 _ 01 6 Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise
<02803 chashab> (8802) iniquity <00205 >aven>, and work <06466

when the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they
practise <06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in
the power <00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
07451 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940

07451 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804)
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940

07451 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <{07451} ra<> with
both hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the
prince <08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge
<08199 shaphat> (8802) asketh for a reward <07966 shilluwm>; and
the great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802)
his mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they
wrap it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
07451 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199

<07130 qereb> us? none evil <{07451} ra<> can come <00935 bow>>

07452 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <{07452} rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in

>abad> (8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq>
(8689) thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
07453 Mic _ 07 _ 05 Trust <00539 >aman> (8686) ye not in a

the doors <06607 pethach> of thy mouth <06310 peh> from her that
lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <02436 cheyq>.
07462 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and
feed <{07462} ra<ah> (8804) in the strength <05797 <oz> of the

<08034 shem> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> his God <00430

07462 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965

07462 Mic _ 05 _ 06 And they shall waste <{07462} ra<ah> (8804)
the land <00776 >erets> of Assyria <00804 >Ashshuwr> with the

07489 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <02199 za<aq> (8799)
unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030

face <06440 paniym> from them at that time <06256 <eth>, as they
have behaved themselves ill <{07489} ra<a<> (8689) in their

07521 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased

for the sin <02403 chatta>ah> of my soul <05315 nephesh>?
07562 Mic _ 06 _ 11 Shall I count them pure <02135 zakah> (8799)
with the wicked <{07562} resha<> balances <03976 mo>zen>, and
with the bag <03599 kiyc> of deceitful <04820 mirmah> weights

07573 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <{07573} ratham> (8798) the

transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> (8738) in thee.
07592 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the prince

07607 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <08130 sane>> (8802) the good

07611 Mic _ 05 _ 07 6 And the remnant <{07611} sh@>eriyth> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of
many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from

Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy>

07611 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)

07626 Mic _ 07 _ 14 6 Feed <07462 ra<ah> (8798) thy people

07650 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the

sh@moneh> principal <05257 n@ciyk> men <00120 >adam>.
07703 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up

(8686) it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath
divided <02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
07703 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up

07704 Mic _ 03 _ 12 Therefore shall Zion <06726 Tsiyown> for
your sake <01558 galal> be plowed <02790 charash> (8735) as a
field <{07704} sadeh>, and Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim> shall
become heaps <05856 <iy>, and the mountain <02022 har> of the
house <01004 bayith> as the high places <01116 bamah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>.
07704 Mic _ 02 _ 02 And they covet <02530 chamad> (8804) fields
<{07704} sadeh>, and take them by violence <01497 gazal> (8804);
and houses <01004 bayith>, and take them away <05375 nasa>>

my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <{07704} sadeh>.
07704 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of
Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, like a woman in travail <03205 yalad>
(8802): for now shalt thou go forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) out of
the city <07151 qiryah>, and thou shalt dwell <07931 shakan>
(8804) in the field <{07704} sadeh>, and thou shalt go <00935

07725 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <{07725} shuwb> (8799),
he will have compassion <07355 racham> (8762) upon us; he will

thou wilt cast <07993 shalak> (8686) all their sins <02403

07725 Mic _ 05 _ 03 Therefore will he give them up <05414
nathan> (8799), until the time <06256 <eth> that she which
travaileth <03205 yalad> (8802) hath brought forth <03205 yalad>

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men

(8802) solitarily <00910 badad> in the wood <03293 ya<ar>, in
the midst <08432 tavek> of Carmel <03760 Karmel>: let them feed
<07462 ra<ah> (8799) in Bashan <01316 Bashan> and Gilead <01568
Gil<ad>, as in the days <03117 yowm> of old <05769 <owlam>.
07931 Mic _ 04 _ 10 Be in pain <02342 chuwl> (8798), and labour
to bring forth <01518 giyach> (8798), O daughter <01323 bath> of

07941 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking

prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <03196 yayin>

prophet <05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.
07964 Mic _ 01 _ 14 Therefore shalt thou give <05414 nathan>

07965 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <{07965}

sh@moneh> principal <05257 n@ciyk> men <00120 >adam>.
07965 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite <05391

even prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <04421 milchamah> against
him.
07966 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the prince
<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <08199

great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his
mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap
it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
07971 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)
out of the land <00776 >erets> of Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim>, and
redeemed <06299 padah> (8804) thee out of the house <01004

07993 Mic _ 02 _ 05 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall
cast <{07993} shalak> (8688) a cord <02256 chebel> by lot <01486

07993 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <07725 shuwb> (8799), he
will have compassion <07355 racham> (8762) upon us; he will
subdue <03533 kabash> (8799) our iniquities <05771 <avon>; and
thou wilt cast <{07993} shalak> (8686) all their sins <02403

08008 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men

08034 Mic _ 04 _ 05 For all people <05971 <am> will walk <03212

08034 Mic _ 04 _ 05 For all people <05971 <am> will walk <03212

08034 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> voice <06963

(8804) it.
08034 Mic _ 05 _ 04 And he shall stand <05975 <amad> (8804) and
feed <07462 ra<ah> (8804) in the strength <05797 <oz> of the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, in the majesty <01347 ga>own> of the name
<{08034} shem> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> his God <00430

08045 Mic _ 05 _ 14 And I will pluck up <05428 nathash> (8804)
thy groves <00842 >asherah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of

<06145 <ar> (8676) <05892 <iyr>.
08047 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri

08077 Mic _ 07 _ 13 Notwithstanding the land <00776 >erets>
shall be desolate <{08077} sh@mamah> because of them that dwell
<03427 yashab> (8802) therein, for the fruit <06529 p@riy> of
their doings <04611 ma<alal>.
08077 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>

all the hires <00868 >ethnan> thereof shall be burned <08313
saraph> (8735) with the fire <00784 >esh>, and all the idols
<06091 <atsab> thereof will I lay <07760 suwm> (8799) desolate
<{08077} sh@mamah>: for she gathered <06908 qabats> (8765) it of
the hire <00868 >ethnan> of an harlot <02181 zanah> (8802), and
they shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) to the hire <00868
>ethnan> of an harlot <02181 zanah> (8802).
08081 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but
thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread
<01869 darak> (8799) the olives <02132 zayith>, but thou shalt
not anoint <05480 cuwk> (8799) thee with oil <{08081} shemen>;

08081 Mic _ 06 _ 07 Will the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> be pleased
<07521 ratsah> (8799) with thousands <00505 >eleph> of rams

08083 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965

08085 Mic _ 05 _ 15 And I will execute <06213 <asah> (8804)
vengeance <05359 naqam> in anger <00639 >aph> and fury <02534

08085 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

08085 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear
<{08085} shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the
house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for

08085 Mic _ 06 _ 09 6 The LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> voice <06963

08085 Mic _ 01 _ 02 Hear <{08085} shama<> (8798), all ye people

08085 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <{08085} shama<> (8798) this, I pray
you, ye heads <07218 ro>sh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>, and princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the house <01004

(8764) judgment <04941 mishpat>, and pervert <06140 <aqash>

08085 Mic _ 06 _ 02 Hear <{08085} shama<> (8798) ye, O mountains
<02022 har>, the LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> controversy <07379 riyb>,

the earth <00776 >erets>: for the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> hath a
controversy <07379 riyb> with his people <05971 <am>, and he
will plead <03198 yakach> (8691) with Israel <03478 Yisra>el>.
08104 Mic _ 07 _ 05 Trust <00539 >aman> (8686) ye not in a
friend <07453 rea<>, put ye not confidence <00982 batach> (8799)

doors <06607 pethach> of thy mouth <06310 peh> from her that
lieth <07901 shakab> (8802) in thy bosom <02436 cheyq>.
08104 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri
<06018 <Omriy> are kept <{08104} shamar> (8691), and all the
works <04639 ma<aseh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Ahab <00256
>Ach>ab>, and ye walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in their counsels
<04156 mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> (8800) thee
a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>
(8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall
bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my
people <05971 <am>.
08111 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <{08111} Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field
<07704 sadeh>, and as plantings <04302 matta<> of a vineyard
<03754 kerem>: and I will pour down <05064 nagar> (8689) the
stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I
will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <03247
y@cowd> thereof.
08111 Mic _ 01 _ 01 6 The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> that came to Micah <04318 Miykah> the Morasthite <04183

Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings
<04428 melek> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>, which he saw <02372
chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <{08111} Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
08111 Mic _ 01 _ 05 For the transgression <06588 pesha<> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob> is all this, and for the sins <02403
chatta>ah> of the house <01004 bayith> of Israel <03478
Yisra>el>. What is the transgression <06588 pesha<> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>? is it not Samaria <{08111} Shom@rown>? and what
are the high places <01116 bamah> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>? are
they not Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>?
08121 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto
you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the sun
<{08121} shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark
<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
08127 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite <05391
nashak> (8802) with their teeth <{08127} shen>, and cry <07121
qara>> (8804), Peace <07965 shalowm>; and he that putteth <05414
nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they even
prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <04421 milchamah> against him.
08130 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <{08130} sane>> (8802) the good
<02896 towb>, and love <00157 >ahab> (8802) the evil <07451 ra<>;
who pluck off <01497 gazal> (8802) their skin <05785 <owr> from
off them, and their flesh <07607 sh@>er> from off their bones
<06106 <etsem>;
08141 Mic _ 06 _ 06 6 Wherewith shall I come before <06923
qadam> (8762) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and bow <03721 kaphaph>
(8735) myself before the high <04791 marowm> God <00430
>elohiym>? shall I come before <06923 qadam> (8762) him with
burnt offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a
year <{08141} shaneh> old <01121 ben>?
08172 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199
shaphat> (8799) for reward <07810 shachad>, and the priests
<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire <04242
m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine <07080
qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they lean
<{08172} sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and say
<00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among
<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935 bow>>
(8799) upon us.
08179 Mic _ 01 _ 09 For her wound <04347 makkah> is incurable
<00605 >anash> (8803); for it is come <00935 bow>> (8804) unto
Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>; he is come <05060 naga<> (8804) unto the
gate <{08179} sha<ar> of my people <05971 <am>, even to
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
08179 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804) for
good <02896 towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381 yarad>
(8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <{08179}
sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
08179 Mic _ 02 _ 13 The breaker <06555 parats> (8802) is come up
<05927 <alah> (8804) before <06440 paniym> them: they have
broken up <06555 parats> (8804), and have passed through <05674
<abar> (8799) the gate <{08179} sha<ar>, and are gone out <03318
yatsa>> (8799) by it: and their king <04428 melek> shall pass
<05674 <abar> (8799) before <06440 paniym> them, and the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> on the head <07218 ro>sh> of them.
08199 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <01413 gadad> (8704) thyself in
troops <01416 g@duwd>, O daughter <01323 bath> of troops <01416

against us: they shall smite <05221 nakah> (8686) the judge
<{08199} shaphat> (8802) of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> with a rod
<07626 shebet> upon the cheek <03895 l@chiy>.
08199 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the prince
<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <{08199}
shaphat> (8802) asketh for a reward <07966 shilluwm>; and the
great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his
mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap
it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
08199 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge
<{08199} shaphat> (8799) for reward <07810 shachad>, and the
priests <03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for
hire <04242 m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof
divine <07080 qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will
they lean <08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
and say <00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
among <07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935
bow>> (8799) upon us.
08199 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <{08199} shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath> (8765)
their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855 >eth>, and
their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks <04211 mazmerah>:
nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375 nasa>> (8799) a
sword <02719 chereb> against nation <01471 gowy>, neither shall
they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421 milchamah> any more.
08208 Mic _ 01 _ 11 Pass ye away <05674 <abar> (8798), thou
inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Saphir <{08208} Shaphiyr>,

inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of Zaanan <06630 Tsa>anan> came
not forth <03318 yatsa>> (8804) in the mourning <04553 micepd>
of Bethezel <01018 Beyth ha->etsel>; he shall receive <03947
laqach> (8799) of you his standing <05979 <emdah>.
08222 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <02374 chozeh> be
ashamed <00954 buwsh> (8804), and the diviners <07080 qacam>
(8802) confounded <02659 chapher> (8804): yea, they shall all
cover <05844 <atah> (8804) their lips <{08222} sapham>; for
there is no answer <04617 ma<aneh> of God <00430 >elohiym>.
08267 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are
full <04390 male>> (8804) of violence <02555 chamac>, and the
inhabitants <03427 yashab> (8802) thereof have spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) lies <{08267} sheqer>, and their tongue <03956
lashown> is deceitful <07423 r@miyah> in their mouth <06310 peh>.
08267 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking

prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <03196 yayin>

<05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.
08269 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> (8687), the prince

great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his
mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap
it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
08313 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>
thereof shall be beaten to pieces <03807 kathath> (8714), and
all the hires <00868 >ethnan> thereof shall be burned <{08313}

the hire <00868 >ethnan> of an harlot <02181 zanah> (8802), and
they shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) to the hire <00868

08322 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri

a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427 yashab>
(8802) thereof an hissing <{08322} sh@reqah>: therefore ye shall
bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of my
people <05971 <am>.
08354 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but
thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread

<02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) it.
08432 Mic _ 03 _ 03 Who also eat <00398 >akal> (8804) the flesh

I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as
the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677) <01224
Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <{08432}
tavek> of their fold <01699 dober>: they shall make great noise

08451 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <01471 gowy>

Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)
to the mountain <02022 har> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and to
the house <01004 bayith> of the God <00430 >elohiym> of Jacob

his ways <01870 derek>, and we will walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in
his paths <00734 >orach>: for the law <{08451} towrah> shall go
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, and the

08492 Mic _ 06 _ 15 Thou shalt sow <02232 zara<> (8799), but
thou shalt not reap <07114 qatsar> (8799); thou shalt tread

08582 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <05971 <am> err <{08582} ta<ah> (8688), that bite
<05391 nashak> (8802) with their teeth <08127 shen>, and cry
<07121 qara>> (8804), Peace <07965 shalowm>; and he that putteth
<05414 nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they

him.
08588 Mic _ 02 _ 09 The women <00802 >ishshah> of my people
<05971 <am> have ye cast out <01644 garash> (8762) from their

my glory <01926 hadar> for ever <05769 <owlam>.
08588 Mic _ 01 _ 16 Make thee bald <07139 qarach> (8798), and
poll <01494 gazaz> (8798) thee for thy delicate <{08588}
ta<anuwg> children <01121 ben>; enlarge <07337 rachab> (8685)

they are gone into captivity <01540 galah> (8804) from thee.
6 Mic _ 01 _ 08 {6} Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad> (8799)
and howl <03213 yalal> (8686), I will go <03212 yalak> (8799)

6 Mic _ 01 _ 01 {6} The word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> that came to Micah <04318 Miykah> the Morasthite <04183
Morashtiy> in the days <03117 yowm> of Jotham <03147 Yowtham>,
Ahaz <00271 >Achaz>, and Hezekiah <03169 Y@chizqiyah>, kings
<04428 melek> of Judah <03063 Y@huwdah>, which he saw <02372
chazah> (8804) concerning Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> and
Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
6 Mic _ 02 _ 06 {6} Prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) ye not, say
they to them that prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686): they shall not
prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) to them, that they shall not take
<05253 nacag> (8799) shame <03639 k@limmah>.
6 Mic _ 02 _ 01 {6} Woe <01945 howy> to them that devise <02803
chashab> (8802) iniquity <00205 >aven>, and work <06466 pa<al>
(8802) evil <07451 ra<> upon their beds <04904 mishkab>! when
the morning <01242 boqer> is light <00216 >owr>, they practise
<06213 <asah> (8799) it, because it is <03426 yesh> in the power
<00410 >el> of their hand <03027 yad>.
6 Mic _ 02 _ 12 {6} I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800) assemble
<00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of thee; I
will surely <06908 qabats> (8763) gather <06908 qabats> (8762)
the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; I
will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as the
sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677) <01224
Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <08432 tavek>
of their fold <01699 dober>: they shall make great noise <01949
huwm> (8686) by reason of the multitude of men <00120 >adam>.
6 Mic _ 03 _ 01 {6} And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear <08085
shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the house
<01004 bayith> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>; Is it not for you to
know <03045 yada<> (8800) judgment <04941 mishpat>?
6 Mic _ 03 _ 08 {6} But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390
male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit <07307
ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment <04941

<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his sin <02403
chatta>ah>.
6 Mic _ 04 _ 01 {6} But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days
<03117 yowm> it shall come to pass, that the mountain <02022
har> of the house <01004 bayith> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>
shall be established <03559 kuwn> (8737) in the top <07218
ro>sh> of the mountains <02022 har>, and it shall be exalted
<05375 nasa>> (8737) above the hills <01389 gib<ah>; and people
<05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.
6 Mic _ 04 _ 08 {6} And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the
flock <05739 <eder> (8677) <04029 Migdal-<Eder>, the strong hold
<06076 <ophel> of the daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726

the first <07223 ri>shown> dominion <04475 memshalah>; the
kingdom <04467 mamlakah> shall come <00935 bow>> (8804) to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
6 Mic _ 05 _ 01 {6} Now gather <01413 gadad> (8704) thyself in
troops <01416 g@duwd>, O daughter <01323 bath> of troops <01416
g@duwd>: he hath laid <07760 suwm> (8804) siege <04692 matsowr>
against us: they shall smite <05221 nakah> (8686) the judge
<08199 shaphat> (8802) of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> with a rod
<07626 shebet> upon the cheek <03895 l@chiy>.
6 Mic _ 05 _ 07 {6} And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be in the midst <07130 qereb> of many
<07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a dew <02919 tal> from the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, as the showers <07241 rabiyb> upon the
grass <06212 <eseb>, that tarrieth <06960 qavah> (8762) not for
man <00376 >iysh>, nor waiteth <03176 yachal> (8762) for the
sons <01121 ben> of men <00120 >adam>.
6 Mic _ 06 _ 01 {6} Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye now what the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> saith <00559 >amar> (8802); Arise <06965
quwm> (8798), contend <07378 riyb> (8798) thou before the
mountains <02022 har>, and let the hills <01389 gib<ah> hear

6 Mic _ 06 _ 09 {6} The LORD'S <03068 Y@hovah> voice <06963
qowl> crieth <07121 qara>> (8799) unto the city <05892 <iyr>,
and the man of wisdom <08454 tuwshiyah> shall see <07200 ra>ah>

rod <04294 matteh>, and who hath appointed <03259 ya<ad> (8804)
it.
6 Mic _ 06 _ 06 {6} Wherewith shall I come before <06923 qadam>
(8762) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and bow <03721 kaphaph> (8735)
myself before the high <04791 marowm> God <00430 >elohiym>?
shall I come before <06923 qadam> (8762) him with burnt
offerings <05930 <olah>, with calves <05695 <egel> of a year
<08141 shaneh> old <01121 ben>?
6 Mic _ 07 _ 07 {6} Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah> (8762)
unto the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; I will wait <03176 yachal> (8686)
for the God <00430 >elohiym> of my salvation <03468 yesha<>: my
God <00430 >elohiym> will hear <08085 shama<> (8799) me.
6 Mic _ 07 _ 01 {6} Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as when
they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019
qayits>, as the grapegleanings <05955 <olelah> of the vintage
<01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to eat
<00398 >akal> (8800): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <00183
>avah> (8765) the firstripe fruit <01063 bikkuwrah>.
6 Mic _ 07 _ 14 {6} Feed <07462 ra<ah> (8798) thy people <05971
<am> with thy rod <07626 shebet>, the flock <06629 tso>n> of
thine heritage <05159 nachalah>, which dwell <07931 shakan>
(8802) solitarily <00910 badad> in the wood <03293 ya<ar>, in
the midst <08432 tavek> of Carmel <03760 Karmel>: let them feed
<07462 ra<ah> (8799) in Bashan <01316 Bashan> and Gilead <01568
Gil<ad>, as in the days <03117 yowm> of old <05769 <owlam>.

<Aphrah> roll <06428 palash> (8690) ({8675}) <06428 palash>
(8694) thyself in the dust <06083 <aphar>.
8675 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad> (8799)

stripped <07758 showlal> ({8675}) <07758 showlal> and naked

<04553 micepd> like the dragons <08577 tanniyn>, and mourning
<00060 >ebel> as the owls <01323 bath> <03284 ya<anah>.
8675 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> ({8675}) <02821 chashak> (8804)
unto you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> (8800); and the
sun <08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark
<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
8676 Mic _ 05 _ 11 And I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689) the
cities <06145 <ar> ({8676}) <05892 <iyr> of thy land <00776

8676 Mic _ 05 _ 14 And I will pluck up <05428 nathash> (8804)
thy groves <00842 >asherah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of
thee: so will I destroy <08045 shamad> (8689) thy cities <06145

8676 Mic _ 06 _ 10 Are there <00786 >ish> yet the treasures

and the scant <07332 razown> measure <00374 >eyphah> that is
abominable <02194 za<am> (8803)?
8677 Mic _ 04 _ 08 6 And thou, O tower <04026 migdal> of the

daughter <01323 bath> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
8677 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)
assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of

(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;
I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as
the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> ({8677})
<01224 Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <08432

8685 Mic _ 01 _ 16 Make thee bald <07139 qarach> (8798), and
poll <01494 gazaz> (8798) thee for thy delicate <08588 ta<anuwg>
children <01121 ben>; enlarge <07337 rachab> ({8685}) thy
baldness <07144 qorchah> as the eagle <05404 nesher>; for they
are gone into captivity <01540 galah> (8804) from thee.
8685 Mic _ 01 _ 02 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798), all ye people

8686 Mic _ 07 _ 15 According to the days <03117 yowm> of thy
coming <03318 yatsa>> (8800) out of the land <00776 >erets> of

8686 Mic _ 02 _ 06 6 Prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) ye not, say

8686 Mic _ 02 _ 06 6 Prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) ye not, say

8686 Mic _ 02 _ 06 6 Prophesy <05197 nataph> ({8686}) ye not,

8686 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

8686 Mic _ 01 _ 15 Yet will I bring <00935 bow>> ({8686}) an
heir <03423 yarash> (8802) unto thee, O inhabitant <03427

8686 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> ({8686})

is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>
(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq> (8689)
thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
8686 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <07725 shuwb> (8799), he
will have compassion <07355 racham> (8762) upon us; he will
subdue <03533 kabash> (8799) our iniquities <05771 <avon>; and
thou wilt cast <07993 shalak> ({8686}) all their sins <02403
chatta>ah> into the depths <04688 m@tsowlah> of the sea <03220
yam>.
8686 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <02199 za<aq> (8799) unto
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030 <anah>
(8799) them: he will even hide <05641 cathar> ({8686}) his face
<06440 paniym> from them at that time <06256 <eth>, as they have
behaved themselves ill <07489 ra<a<> (8689) in their doings
<04611 ma<alal>.
8686 Mic _ 05 _ 01 6 Now gather <01413 gadad> (8704) thyself in
troops <01416 g@duwd>, O daughter <01323 bath> of troops <01416
g@duwd>: he hath laid <07760 suwm> (8804) siege <04692 matsowr>
against us: they shall smite <05221 nakah> ({8686}) the judge
<08199 shaphat> (8802) of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> with a rod
<07626 shebet> upon the cheek <03895 l@chiy>.
8686 Mic _ 01 _ 08 6 Therefore I will wail <05594 caphad> (8799)
and howl <03213 yalal> ({8686}), I will go <03212 yalak> (8799)
stripped <07758 showlal> (8675) <07758 showlal> and naked <06174
<arowm>: I will make <06213 <asah> (8799) a wailing <04553
micepd> like the dragons <08577 tanniyn>, and mourning <00060

8686 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking
<01980 halak> (8802) in the spirit <07307 ruwach> and falsehood

prophesy <05197 nataph> ({8686}) unto thee of wine <03196 yayin>

<05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.
8686 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)
the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, is the spirit
<07307 ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> straitened <07114
qatsar> (8804)? are these his doings <04611 ma<alal>? do not my
words <01697 dabar> do good <03190 yatab> ({8686}) to him that
walketh <01980 halak> (8802) uprightly <03477 yashar>?
8686 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> (8787) as an enemy <00341

<00145 >eder> with <04136 muwl> the garment <08008 salmah> from
them that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach>
as men averse <07725 shuwb> (8803) from war <04421 milchamah>.
8686 Mic _ 02 _ 03 Therefore thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah>; Behold, against this family <04940
mishpachah> do I devise <02803 chashab> (8802) an evil <07451

necks <06677 tsavva>r>; neither shall ye go <03212 yalak> (8799)
haughtily <07317 rowmah>: for this time <06256 <eth> is evil
<07451 ra<>.
8686 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <00398 >akal> (8799), but not
be satisfied <07646 saba<> (8799); and thy casting down <03445

shalt take hold <05253 nacag> (8686), but shalt not deliver
<06403 palat> ({8686}); and that which thou deliverest <06403

8686 Mic _ 07 _ 09 I will bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the
indignation <02197 za<aph> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, because
I have sinned <02398 chata>> (8804) against him, until he plead
<07378 riyb> (8799) my cause <07379 riyb>, and execute <06213
<asah> (8804) judgment <04941 mishpat> for me: he will bring me
forth <03318 yatsa>> ({8686}) to the light <00216 >owr>, and I
shall behold <07200 ra>ah> (8799) his righteousness <06666

8686 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199

<04242 m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine
<07080 qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they
lean <08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and
say <00559 >amar> (8800), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among
<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935 bow>>

8686 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up

utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738): he
hath changed <04171 muwr> ({8686}) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided

8686 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)
assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of

(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;
I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as
the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677) <01224
Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <08432 tavek>
of their fold <01699 dober>: they shall make great noise <01949
huwm> ({8686}) by reason of the multitude of men <00120 >adam>.
8686 Mic _ 04 _ 02 And many <07227 rab> nations <01471 gowy>
shall come <01980 halak> (8804), and say <00559 >amar> (8804),
Come <03212 yalak> (8798), and let us go up <05927 <alah> (8799)
to the mountain <02022 har> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and to
the house <01004 bayith> of the God <00430 >elohiym> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>; and he will teach <03384 yarah> ({8686}) us of
his ways <01870 derek>, and we will walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in
his paths <00734 >orach>: for the law <08451 towrah> shall go
forth <03318 yatsa>> (8799) of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>, and the
word <01697 dabar> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> from Jerusalem
<03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
8687 Mic _ 06 _ 13 Therefore also will I make thee sick <02470

thee desolate <08074 shamem> ({8687}) because of thy sins <02403

8687 Mic _ 06 _ 13 Therefore also will I make thee sick <02470

thee desolate <08074 shamem> (8687) because of thy sins <02403

8687 Mic _ 03 _ 08 6 But truly <00199 >uwlam> I am full <04390
male>> (8804) of power <03581 koach> by the spirit <07307
ruwach> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and of judgment <04941

<06588 pesha<>, and to Israel <03478 Yisra>el> his sin <02403
chatta>ah>.
8687 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee, but
to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love
<00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212 yalak>
(8800) humbly <06800 tsana<> ({8687}) with thy God <00430
>elohiym>?
8687 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both
hands <03709 kaph> earnestly <03190 yatab> ({8687}), the prince
<08269 sar> asketh <07592 sha>al> (8802), and the judge <08199

great <01419 gadowl> man, he uttereth <01696 dabar> (8802) his
mischievous <01942 havvah> desire <05315 nephesh>: so they wrap
it up <05686 <abath> (8762).
8688 Mic _ 02 _ 05 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall
cast <07993 shalak> ({8688}) a cord <02256 chebel> by lot <01486
gowral> in the congregation <06951 qahal> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah>.
8688 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)
every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <01612 gephen> and under
his fig tree <08384 t@>en>; and none shall make them afraid
<02729 charad> ({8688}): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696
dabar> (8765) it.
8688 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking
<01980 halak> (8802) in the spirit <07307 ruwach> and falsehood

prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <03196 yayin>
and of strong drink <07941 shekar>; he shall even be the prophet
<05197 nataph> ({8688}) of this people <05971 <am>.
8688 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> ({8688}), that bite
<05391 nashak> (8802) with their teeth <08127 shen>, and cry
<07121 qara>> (8804), Peace <07965 shalowm>; and he that putteth
<05414 nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they
even prepare <06942 qadash> (8765) war <04421 milchamah> against
him.
8688 Mic _ 05 _ 08 And the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob> shall be among the Gentiles <01471 gowy> in the
midst <07130 qereb> of many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am> as a
lion <00738 >ariy> among the beasts <00929 b@hemah> of the
forest <03293 ya<ar>, as a young lion <03715 k@phiyr> among the
flocks <05739 <eder> of sheep <06629 tso>n>: who, if he go
through <05674 <abar> (8804), both treadeth down <07429 ramac>
(8804), and teareth in pieces <02963 taraph> (8804), and none
can deliver <05337 natsal> ({8688}).
8689 Mic _ 05 _ 12 And I will cut off <03772 karath> ({8689})
witchcrafts <03785 kesheph> out of thine hand <03027 yad>; and
thou shalt have no more soothsayers <06049 <anan> (8781):
8689 Mic _ 06 _ 03 O my people <05971 <am>, what have I done
<06213 <asah> (8804) unto thee? and wherein have I wearied
<03811 la>ah> ({8689}) thee? testify <06030 <anah> (8798)
against me.
8689 Mic _ 06 _ 13 Therefore also will I make thee sick <02470
chalah> ({8689}) in smiting <05221 nakah> (8687) thee, in making
thee desolate <08074 shamem> (8687) because of thy sins <02403
chatta>ah>.
8689 Mic _ 05 _ 11 And I will cut off <03772 karath> ({8689})
the cities <06145 <ar> (8676) <05892 <iyr> of thy land <00776
>erets>, and throw down <02040 harac> (8804) all thy strong
holds <04013 mibtsar>:
8689 Mic _ 05 _ 14 And I will pluck up <05428 nathash> (8804)
thy groves <00842 >asherah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of
thee: so will I destroy <08045 shamad> ({8689}) thy cities
<06145 <ar> (8676) <05892 <iyr>.
8689 Mic _ 05 _ 13 Thy graven images <06456 p@ciyl> also will I
cut off <03772 karath> ({8689}), and thy standing images <04676
matstsebah> out of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee; and thou
shalt no more worship <07812 shachah> (8691) the work <04639
ma<aseh> of thine hands <03027 yad>.
8689 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
neither understand <00995 biyn> ({8689}) they his counsel <06098
<etsah>: for he shall gather <06908 qabats> (8765) them as the
sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.
8689 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117
yowm>, saith <05002 n@>um> (8803) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, that
I will cut off <03772 karath> ({8689}) thy horses <05483 cuwc>
out of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee, and I will destroy
<00006 >abad> (8689) thy chariots <04818 merkabah>:
8689 Mic _ 05 _ 10 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117
yowm>, saith <05002 n@>um> (8803) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, that
I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689) thy horses <05483 cuwc> out
of the midst <07130 qereb> of thee, and I will destroy <00006
>abad> ({8689}) thy chariots <04818 merkabah>:
8689 Mic _ 04 _ 09 Now why dost thou cry <07321 ruwa<> (8686)
out aloud <07452 rea<>? is there no king <04428 melek> in thee?
is thy counsellor <03289 ya<ats> (8802) perished <00006 >abad>
(8804)? for pangs <02427 chiyl> have taken <02388 chazaq>
({8689}) thee as a woman in travail <03205 yalad> (8802).
8689 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002 n@>um>
(8803) the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, will I assemble <00622 >acaph>
(8799) her that halteth <06760 tsala<> (8802), and I will gather
<06908 qabats> (8762) her that is driven out <05080 nadach>
(8737), and her that I have afflicted <07489 ra<a<> ({8689});
8689 Mic _ 03 _ 04 Then shall they cry <02199 za<aq> (8799) unto
the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, but he will not hear <06030 <anah>
(8799) them: he will even hide <05641 cathar> (8686) his face
<06440 paniym> from them at that time <06256 <eth>, as they have
behaved themselves ill <07489 ra<a<> ({8689}) in their doings
<04611 ma<alal>.
8689 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> ({8689})
out of the land <00776 >erets> of Egypt <04714 Mitsrayim>, and
redeemed <06299 padah> (8804) thee out of the house <01004
bayith> of servants <05650 <ebed>; and I sent <07971 shalach>
(8799) before <06440 paniym> thee Moses <04872 Mosheh>, Aaron
<00175 >Aharown>, and Miriam <04813 Miryam>.
8689 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field
<07704 sadeh>, and as plantings <04302 matta<> of a vineyard
<03754 kerem>: and I will pour down <05064 nagar> ({8689}) the
stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I
will discover <01540 galah> (8762) the foundations <03247
y@cowd> thereof.
8689 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> ({8689}) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> require <01875 darash> (8802) of thee, but
to do <06213 <asah> (8800) justly <04941 mishpat>, and to love
<00160 >ahabah> mercy <02617 checed>, and to walk <03212 yalak>
(8800) humbly <06800 tsana<> (8687) with thy God <00430
>elohiym>?
8689 Mic _ 03 _ 03 Who also eat <00398 >akal> (8804) the flesh
<07607 sh@>er> of my people <05971 <am>, and flay <06584 pashat>
({8689}) their skin <05785 <owr> from off them; and they break
<06476 patsach> (8765) their bones <06106 <etsem>, and chop them
in pieces <06566 paras> (8804), as for the pot <05518 ciyr>, and
as flesh <01320 basar> within <08432 tavek> the caldron <07037
qallachath>.
8689 Mic _ 07 _ 18 Who is a God <00410 >el> like unto thee, that
pardoneth <05375 nasa>> (8802) iniquity <05771 <avon>, and
passeth by <05674 <abar> (8802) the transgression <06588 pesha<>
of the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of his heritage <05159
nachalah>? he retaineth <02388 chazaq> ({8689}) not his anger
<00639 >aph> for ever <05703 <ad>, because he delighteth <02654
chaphets> (8804) in mercy <02617 checed>.
8689 Mic _ 05 _ 05 And this man shall be the peace <07965
shalowm>, when the Assyrian <00804 >Ashshuwr> shall come <00935
bow>> (8799) into our land <00776 >erets>: and when he shall
tread <01869 darak> (8799) in our palaces <00759 >armown>, then
shall we raise <06965 quwm> ({8689}) against him seven <07651

8737 Mic _ 04 _ 01 6 But in the last <00319 >achariyth> days

people <05971 <am> shall flow <05102 nahar> (8804) unto it.
8738 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

8738 Mic _ 07 _ 20 Thou wilt perform <05414 nathan> (8799) the
truth <00571 >emeth> to Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and the mercy

the days <03117 yowm> of old <06924 qedem>.
8738 Mic _ 01 _ 04 And the mountains <02022 har> shall be molten

8738 Mic _ 01 _ 13 O thou inhabitant <03427 yashab> (8802) of
Lachish <03923 Lachiysh>, bind <07573 ratham> (8798) the chariot

beginning <07225 re>shiyth> of the sin <02403 chatta>ah> to the
daughter <01323 bath> of Zion <06726 Tsiyown>: for the
transgressions <06588 pesha<> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el> were
found <04672 matsa>> ({8738}) in thee.
8738 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> (8800) spoiled <07703 shadad> ({8738}):

(8686) it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath
divided <02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
8762 Mic _ 07 _ 07 6 Therefore I will look <06822 tsaphah>

8762 Mic _ 07 _ 19 He will turn again <07725 shuwb> (8799), he

subdue <03533 kabash> (8799) our iniquities <05771 <avon>; and
thou wilt cast <07993 shalak> (8686) all their sins <02403

8762 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002 n@>um>

8762 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) this, I pray you,

({8762}) all equity <03477 yashar>.
8762 Mic _ 01 _ 06 Therefore I will make <07760 suwm> (8804)
Samaria <08111 Shom@rown> as an heap <05856 <iy> of the field

stones <00068 >eben> thereof into the valley <01516 gay>>, and I
will discover <01540 galah> ({8762}) the foundations <03247

8762 Mic _ 06 _ 14 Thou shalt eat <00398 >akal> (8799), but not

shalt take hold <05253 nacag> (8686), but shalt not deliver
<06403 palat> (8686); and that which thou deliverest <06403
palat> ({8762}) will I give up <05414 nathan> (8799) to the
sword <02719 chereb>.
8762 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> ({8762}) the

move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> (8801) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068

8762 Mic _ 07 _ 03 That they may do evil <07451 ra<> with both

hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq> of
my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> ({8762}) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
8762 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> (8800)

8764 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier

8764 Mic _ 03 _ 09 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) this, I pray you,
ye heads <07218 ro>sh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Jacob
<03290 Ya<aqob>, and princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the house <01004

8764 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034

law <02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341
>oyeb> (8802) are the men <00582 >enowsh> of his own house
<01004 bayith>.
8765 Mic _ 04 _ 12 But they know <03045 yada<> (8804) not the
thoughts <04284 machashabah> of the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>,
neither understand <00995 biyn> (8689) they his counsel <06098
<etsah>: for he shall gather <06908 qabats> ({8765}) them as the
sheaves <05995 <amiyr> into the floor <01637 goren>.
8765 Mic _ 06 _ 12 For the rich men <06223 <ashiyr> thereof are
full <04390 male>> (8804) of violence <02555 chamac>, and the
inhabitants <03427 yashab> (8802) thereof have spoken <01696
dabar> ({8765}) lies <08267 sheqer>, and their tongue <03956
lashown> is deceitful <07423 r@miyah> in their mouth <06310 peh>.
8765 Mic _ 04 _ 04 But they shall sit <03427 yashab> (8804)
every man <00376 >iysh> under his vine <01612 gephen> and under
his fig tree <08384 t@>en>; and none shall make them afraid
<02729 charad> (8688): for the mouth <06310 peh> of the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> of hosts <06635 tsaba>> hath spoken <01696
dabar> ({8765}) it.
8765 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as when
they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019
qayits>, as the grapegleanings <05955 <olelah> of the vintage
<01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to eat
<00398 >akal> (8800): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <00183
>avah> ({8765}) the firstripe fruit <01063 bikkuwrah>.
8765 Mic _ 02 _ 11 If <03863 luw>> a man <00376 >iysh> walking
<01980 halak> (8802) in the spirit <07307 ruwach> and falsehood

prophesy <05197 nataph> (8686) unto thee of wine <03196 yayin>
and of strong drink <07941 shekar>; he shall even be the prophet
<05197 nataph> (8688) of this people <05971 <am>.
8765 Mic _ 03 _ 03 Who also eat <00398 >akal> (8804) the flesh
<07607 sh@>er> of my people <05971 <am>, and flay <06584 pashat>
(8689) their skin <05785 <owr> from off them; and they break
<06476 patsach> ({8765}) their bones <06106 <etsem>, and chop
them in pieces <06566 paras> (8804), as for the pot <05518 ciyr>,
and as flesh <01320 basar> within <08432 tavek> the caldron
<07037 qallachath>.
8765 Mic _ 03 _ 05 Thus saith <00559 >amar> (8804) the LORD
<03068 Y@hovah> concerning the prophets <05030 nabiy>> that make
my people <05971 <am> err <08582 ta<ah> (8688), that bite <05391

nathan> (8799) not into their mouths <06310 peh>, they even
prepare <06942 qadash> ({8765}) war <04421 milchamah> against
him.
8765 Mic _ 01 _ 07 And all the graven images <06456 p@ciyl>
thereof shall be beaten to pieces <03807 kathath> (8714), and
all the hires <00868 >ethnan> thereof shall be burned <08313
saraph> (8735) with the fire <00784 >esh>, and all the idols
<06091 <atsab> thereof will I lay <07760 suwm> (8799) desolate
<08077 sh@mamah>: for she gathered <06908 qabats> ({8765}) it of
the hire <00868 >ethnan> of an harlot <02181 zanah> (8802), and
they shall return <07725 shuwb> (8799) to the hire <00868
>ethnan> of an harlot <02181 zanah> (8802).
8765 Mic _ 04 _ 03 And he shall judge <08199 shaphat> (8804)
among many <07227 rab> people <05971 <am>, and rebuke <03198
yakach> (8689) strong <06099 <atsuwm> nations <01471 gowy> afar
off <07350 rachowq>; and they shall beat <03807 kathath>
({8765}) their swords <02719 chereb> into plowshares <00855
>eth>, and their spears <02595 chaniyth> into pruninghooks
<04211 mazmerah>: nation <01471 gowy> shall not lift up <05375

neither shall they learn <03925 lamad> (8799) war <04421

8781 Mic _ 05 _ 12 And I will cut off <03772 karath> (8689)
witchcrafts <03785 kesheph> out of thine hand <03027 yad>; and
thou shalt have no more soothsayers <06049 <anan> ({8781}):
8787 Mic _ 02 _ 08 Even of late <00865 >ethmowl> my people
<05971 <am> is risen up <06965 quwm> ({8787}) as an enemy <00341

that pass <05674 <abar> (8802) by securely <00983 betach> as men
averse <07725 shuwb> (8803) from war <04421 milchamah>.
8788 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up

my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh> (8686)
it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> ({8788}) he hath divided
<02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
8798 Mic _ 06 _ 03 O my people <05971 <am>, what have I done

8800 Mic _ 07 _ 15 According to the days <03117 yowm> of thy

8800 Mic _ 01 _ 10 Declare <05046 nagad> (8686) ye it not at
Gath <01661 Gath>, weep <01058 bakah> (8799) ye not at all

<Aphrah> roll <06428 palash> (8690) (8675) <06428 palash> (8694)
thyself in the dust <06083 <aphar>.
8800 Mic _ 02 _ 10 Arise <06965 quwm> (8798) ye, and depart
<03212 yalak> (8798); for this is not your rest <04496

shall destroy <02254 chabal> (8762) you, even with a sore <04834
marats> (8737) destruction <02256 chebel>.
8800 Mic _ 03 _ 01 6 And I said <00559 >amar> (8799), Hear
<08085 shama<> (8798), I pray you, O heads <07218 ro>sh> of
Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, and ye princes <07101 qatsiyn> of the

8800 Mic _ 07 _ 01 6 Woe <00480 >al@lay> is me! for I am as when
they have gathered <00625 >oceph> the summer fruits <07019

<01210 batsiyr>: there is no cluster <00811 >eshkowl> to eat
<00398 >akal> ({8800}): my soul <05315 nephesh> desired <00183
>avah> (8765) the firstripe fruit <01063 bikkuwrah>.
8800 Mic _ 06 _ 08 He hath shewed <05046 nagad> (8689) thee, O
man <00120 >adam>, what is good <02896 towb>; and what doth the

8800 Mic _ 03 _ 06 Therefore night <03915 layil> shall be unto
you, that ye shall not have a vision <02377 chazown>; and it
shall be dark <02821 chashak> (8675) <02821 chashak> (8804) unto
you, that ye shall not divine <07080 qacam> ({8800}); and the
sun <08121 shemesh> shall go down <00935 bow>> (8804) over the
prophets <05030 nabiy>>, and the day <03117 yowm> shall be dark
<06937 qadar> (8804) over them.
8800 Mic _ 06 _ 05 O my people <05971 <am>, remember <02142
zakar> (8798) now what Balak <01111 Balaq> king <04428 melek> of
Moab <04124 Mow>ab> consulted <03289 ya<ats> (8804), and what
Balaam <01109 Bil<am> the son <01121 ben> of Beor <01160 B@<owr>
answered <06030 <anah> (8804) him from Shittim <07851 Shittiym>
unto Gilgal <01537 Gilgal>; that ye may know <03045 yada<>
({8800}) the righteousness <06666 ts@daqah> of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah>.
8800 Mic _ 03 _ 11 The heads <07218 ro>sh> thereof judge <08199
shaphat> (8799) for reward <07810 shachad>, and the priests
<03548 kohen> thereof teach <03384 yarah> (8686) for hire <04242
m@chiyr>, and the prophets <05030 nabiy>> thereof divine <07080
qacam> (8799) for money <03701 keceph>: yet will they lean
<08172 sha<an> (8735) upon the LORD <03068 Y@hovah>, and say
<00559 >amar> ({8800}), Is not the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> among
<07130 qereb> us? none evil <07451 ra<> can come <00935 bow>>
(8799) upon us.
8800 Mic _ 06 _ 16 For the statutes <02708 chuqqah> of Omri
<06018 <Omriy> are kept <08104 shamar> (8691), and all the works
<04639 ma<aseh> of the house <01004 bayith> of Ahab <00256
>Ach>ab>, and ye walk <03212 yalak> (8799) in their counsels
<04156 mow<etsah>; that I should make <05414 nathan> ({8800})
thee a desolation <08047 shammah>, and the inhabitants <03427
yashab> (8802) thereof an hissing <08322 sh@reqah>: therefore ye
shall bear <05375 nasa>> (8799) the reproach <02781 cherpah> of
my people <05971 <am>.
8800 Mic _ 02 _ 04 In that day <03117 yowm> shall one take up
<05375 nasa>> (8799) a parable <04912 mashal> against you, and
lament <05091 nahah> (8804) with a doleful <05093 nihyah>
lamentation <05092 n@hiy>, and say <00559 >amar> (8804), We be
utterly <07703 shadad> ({8800}) spoiled <07703 shadad> (8738):
he hath changed <04171 muwr> (8686) the portion <02506 cheleq>
of my people <05971 <am>: how hath he removed <04185 muwsh>
(8686) it from me! turning away <07725 shuwb> (8788) he hath
divided <02505 chalaq> (8762) our fields <07704 sadeh>.
8800 Mic _ 02 _ 12 6 I will surely <00622 >acaph> ({8800})
assemble <00622 >acaph> (8799), O Jacob <03290 Ya<aqob>, all of
thee; I will surely <06908 qabats> (8763) gather <06908 qabats>
(8762) the remnant <07611 sh@>eriyth> of Israel <03478 Yisra>el>;
I will put <07760 suwm> (8799) them together <03162 yachad> as
the sheep <06629 tso>n> of Bozrah <01223 botsrah> (8677) <01224
Botsrah>, as the flock <05739 <eder> in the midst <08432 tavek>
of their fold <01699 dober>: they shall make great noise <01949
huwm> (8686) by reason of the multitude of men <00120 >adam>.
8801 Mic _ 07 _ 06 For the son <01121 ben> dishonoureth <05034
nabel> (8764) the father <00001 >ab>, the daughter <01323 bath>
riseth up <06965 quwm> ({8801}) against her mother <00517 >em>,
the daughter in law <03618 kallah> against her mother in law
<02545 chamowth>; a man's <00376 >iysh> enemies <00341 >oyeb>
(8802) are the men <00582 >enowsh> of his own house <01004
bayith>.
8801 Mic _ 07 _ 17 They shall lick <03897 lachak> (8762) the
dust <06083 <aphar> like a serpent <05175 nachash>, they shall
move <07264 ragaz> (8799) out of their holes <04526 micgereth>
like worms <02119 zachal> ({8801}) of the earth <00776 >erets>:
they shall be afraid <06342 pachad> (8799) of the LORD <03068
Y@hovah> our God <00430 >elohiym>, and shall fear <03372 yare>>
(8799) because of thee.
8802 Mic _ 03 _ 10 They build up <01129 banah> ({8802}) Zion
<06726 Tsiyown> with blood <01818 dam>, and Jerusalem <03389
Y@ruwshalaim> with iniquity <05766 <evel>.
8802 Mic _ 05 _ 09 Thine hand <03027 yad> shall be lifted up
<07311 ruwm> (8799) upon thine adversaries <06862 tsar>, and all
thine enemies <00341 >oyeb> ({8802}) shall be cut off <03772
karath> (8735).
8802 Mic _ 07 _ 13 Notwithstanding the land <00776 >erets> shall
be desolate <08077 sh@mamah> because of them that dwell <03427
yashab> ({8802}) therein, for the fruit <06529 p@riy> of their
doings <04611 ma<alal>.
8802 Mic _ 01 _ 03 For, behold, the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> cometh
forth <03318 yatsa>> ({8802}) out of his place <04725 maqowm>,
and will come down <03381 yarad> (8804), and tread <01869 darak>
(8804) upon the high places <01116 bamah> of the earth <00776
>erets>.
8802 Mic _ 03 _ 02 Who hate <08130 sane>> ({8802}) the good

who pluck off <01497 gazal> (8802) their skin <05785 <owr> from

8802 Mic _ 04 _ 11 Now also many <07227 rab> nations <01471

8802 Mic _ 01 _ 15 Yet will I bring <00935 bow>> (8686) an heir

8802 Mic _ 01 _ 15 Yet will I bring <00935 bow>> (8686) an heir

8802 Mic _ 06 _ 01 6 Hear <08085 shama<> (8798) ye now what the
LORD <03068 Y@hovah> saith <00559 >amar> ({8802}); Arise <06965

8802 Mic _ 01 _ 12 For the inhabitant <03427 yashab> ({8802}) of
Maroth <04796 Marowth> waited carefully <02342 chuwl> (8804) for
good <02896 towb>: but evil <07451 ra<> came down <03381 yarad>
(8804) from the LORD <03068 Y@hovah> unto the gate <08179
sha<ar> of Jerusalem <03389 Y@ruwshalaim>.
8802 Mic _ 07 _ 08 Rejoice <08055 samach> (8799) not against me,
O mine enemy <00341 >oyeb> ({8802}): when I fall <05307 naphal>

yashab> (8799) in darkness <02822 choshek>, the LORD <03068

8802 Mic _ 03 _ 07 Then shall the seers <02374 chozeh> be

8803 Mic _ 04 _ 06 In that day <03117 yowm>, saith <05002 n@>um>

8803 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> ({8803})

8804 Mic _ 07 _ 04 The best <02896 towb> of them is as a brier

8804 Mic _ 07 _ 02 The good <02623 chaciyd> man is perished

they hunt <06679 tsuwd> (8799) every man <00376 >iysh> his
brother <00251 >ach> with a net <02764 cherem>.
8804 Mic _ 06 _ 04 For I brought thee up <05927 <alah> (8689)

redeemed <06299 padah> ({8804}) thee out of the house <01004

8804 Mic _ 02 _ 07 O thou that art named <00559 >amar> (8803)
