Miqueas 7:15-20

15 Como en los días de tu salida de la tierra de Egipto, te mostraré milagros.

16 Verán las naciones y se avergonzarán de todo su poderío; se pondrán la mano sobre la boca, sus oídos se ensordecerán.

17 Lamerán el polvo como la serpiente, como los reptiles de la tierra. Saldrán temblando de sus fortalezas, al SEÑOR nuestro Dios vendrán amedrentados, y temerán delante de ti.

18 ¿Qué Dios hay como tú, que perdona la iniquidad y pasa por alto la rebeldía del remanente de su heredad? No persistirá en su ira para siempre, porque se complace en la misericordia.

19 Volverá a compadecerse de nosotros, hollará nuestras iniquidades. Sí, arrojarás a las profundidades del mar todos sus pecados.

20 Otorgarás a Jacob la verdad y a Abraham la misericordia, las cuales juraste a nuestros padres desde los días de antaño.

Miqueas 7:15-20 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO MICAH 7

This chapter begins with a lamentation of the prophet, in the name of the church and people of God, concerning the general depravity and corruption of the times in which he lived, Mic 7:1-6; then declares what he was determined to do for his relief in such circumstances, Mic 7:7; comforts himself and the church with a good hope and firm belief of its being otherwise and better with them, to the shame and confusion of their enemies that now rejoiced, though without just reason for it, Mic 7:8-10; with promises of deliverance, after a desolation of the land for some time, Mic 7:11-13; and with the answer returned to the prayers of the prophet, Mic 7:14,15; which would issue in the astonishment of the world, and their subjection to the church of God, Mic 7:16,17; and the chapter is concluded with admiration at the pardoning grace and mercy of God, and his faithfulness to his promises, Mic 7:18-20.
