Micah 5:7-15 - A Remnant Delivered

⁷ Then the remnant of Jacob
will be among many peoples
like dew from the Lord,
like showers on the grass,
which do not wait for anyone
or linger for mankind.
⁸ Then the remnant of Jacob
will be among the nations, among many peoples,
like a lion among animals of the forest,
like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
which tramples and tears as it passes through,
and there is no one to rescue them.
⁹ Your hand will be lifted up against your adversaries,
and all your enemies will be destroyed.

¹⁰ In that day—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
I will remove your horses from you
and wreck your chariots.
¹¹ I will remove the cities of your land
and tear down all your fortresses.
¹² I will remove sorceries from your hands,
and you will not have any more fortune-tellers.
¹³ I will remove your carved images
and sacred pillars from you
so that you will not bow down again
to the work of your hands.
¹⁴ I will pull up the Asherah poles from among you
and demolish your cities.
¹⁵ I will take vengeance in anger and wrath
against the nations that have not obeyed Me.
