Miqueas 6:13 Meaning and Commentary

Micah 6:13

Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee
With the rod to be heard, ( Micah 6:9 ) ; by sending among them some of his sore judgments, as famine, pestilence, the sword of the enemy, internal wars, and the like; which should cause their kingdom, and state, and families, to decline and waste away, as a sickly and diseased body. So the Targum,

``and I brought upon thee illness and a stroke.''

The Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, Syriac, and Arabic versions, render it, "and I began to smite thee"; as by Hazael, king of Syria, and Tiglathpileser, king of Assyria, who had carried part of them captive; in making [thee] desolate because of thy sins;
went on, not only to make them sick, and bring them into a declining state, but into utter desolation; as by Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, who carried Israel captive; and by Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, who led Judah captive, because of their sins of idolatry, injustice, and oppression, with others that abounded among them.

Miqueas 6:13 In-Context

11 ¿Seré limpio con peso falso, y con bolsa de engañosas pesas

12 Con lo cual sus ricos se llenaron de rapiña, y sus moradores hablaron mentira, y su lengua engañosa en su boca

13 Por eso yo también te debilité hiriéndote, asolándote por tus pecados

14 Tú comerás, y no te hartarás; y tu abatimiento será en medio de ti; tú cogerás, mas no salvarás; y lo que salvares, lo entregaré yo a la espada

15 Tú sembrarás, mas no segarás; pisarás olivas, mas no te ungirás con el aceite; y mosto, mas no beberás el vino
