Micah 7:15-17
The Message
14-17 Shepherd, O God, your people with your staff,
your dear and precious flock.
Uniquely yours in a grove of trees,
centered in lotus land.
Let them graze in lush Bashan
as in the old days in green Gilead.
Reproduce the miracle-wonders
of our exodus from Egypt.
And the godless nations: Put them in their place—
humiliated in their arrogance, speechless and clueless.
Make them slink like snakes, crawl like cockroaches,
come out of their holes from under their rocks
And face our God.
Fill them with holy fear and trembling.

Micah 7:15-17
New International Version
15 “As in the days when you came out of Egypt,
I will show them my wonders.(A)”
16 Nations will see and be ashamed,(B)
deprived of all their power.
They will put their hands over their mouths(C)
and their ears will become deaf.
17 They will lick dust(D) like a snake,
like creatures that crawl on the ground.
They will come trembling(E) out of their dens;
they will turn in fear(F) to the Lord our God
and will be afraid of you.
