Micah 7:8

The Lord's Kindness

⁷ But as for me, I will watch expectantly for the Lord;
I will wait for the God of my salvation.
My God will hear me.
⁸ Do not rejoice over me, O my enemy.
Though I fall I will rise;
Though I dwell in darkness, the Lord is a light for me.
⁹ I will bear the indignation of the Lord
Because I have sinned against Him,
Until He pleads my case and executes justice for me.
He will bring me out to the light,
And I will see His righteousness.
