Micah 7:7-11 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

7. But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord,I wait for God my Saviour;my God will hear me.

8. Do not gloat over me, my enemy!Though I have fallen, I will rise.Though I sit in darkness,the Lord will be my light.

9. Because I have sinned against him,I will bear the Lord’s wrath,until he pleads my caseand upholds my cause.He will bring me out into the light;I will see his righteousness.

10. Then my enemy will see itand will be covered with shame,she who said to me,‘Where is the Lord your God?’My eyes will see her downfall;even now she will be trampled underfootlike mire in the streets.

11. The day for building your walls will come,the day for extending your boundaries.
