My people! And you would dispossess its women of the homes they loved, take away from its children … my glory for ever.✻ (Micah 2, 9)
Seers that see nothing, baffled diviners, acknowledge they, finger on lip, word from God is none. (Micah 3, 7)
A multitude of peoples will make their way to it, crying, Come, let us climb up to the Lord’s mountain-peak, to the house where the God of Jacob dwells; he shall teach us the right way, we will walk in the paths he has chosen. The Lord’s command shall go out from Sion, his word from Jerusalem; (Micah 4, 2)
over thronging peoples he shall sit in judgement, give award to great nations from far away. Sword they will fashion into ploughshare and spear into pruning-hook; no room there shall be for nation to levy war against nation, and train itself in arms. (Micah 4, 3)
lame shall yet be a stock to breed from, and wayworn shall grow into a sturdy race; here in Sion they shall dwell, and the Lord be king over them, for ever henceforward. (Micah 4, 7)
Sorrow thou well mayst, lady of Sion, and labour as any woman brought to bed; city thou must needs leave, and lodge in the open country-side, nay, to distant Babylon thou must journey;✻ there it is thou wilt find deliverance, there it is the Lord will ransom thee from the power of thy enemies. (Micah 4, 10)

Was it ill done, to rescue thee from Egypt, set thee free from a slave’s prison, send Moses and Aaron and Mary to guide thee on thy way? (Micah 6, 4)
Bethink thee, what designs had Balach, king of Moab, and how Balaam the son of Beor answered him … from Setim to Galgala; and canst thou doubt, then, the faithfulness of the Lord’s friendship?✻ (Micah 6, 5)
Fled is piety, vanished honesty, from human kind; murderous plots afoot; the hunt is up everywhere, man spreading his nets for man. (Micah 7, 2)
