Miqueas 6:15

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

Miqueas 6:15 Meaning and Commentary

Micah 6:15

Thou shall sow, but thou shalt not reap
Either that which is sown shall not spring up, but rot in the earth; or if it does spring up, and come to maturity, yet, before that, they should be removed into captivity, or slain by the sword, and their enemies should reap the increase of their land, their wheat and their grain: thou shall tread the olives;
in the olive press, to get out the oil: but thou shalt not anoint with oil;
as at feasts for refreshment, and at baths for health, this becoming another's property; or, it being a time of distress and mourning, would not be used, it being chiefly at festivals, and occasions of joy, that oil was used: and sweet wine;
that is, shalt tread the grapes in the winepress, to get out the sweet or new wine: but shalt not drink wine;
for, before it is fit to drink, the enemy would have it in his possession; see ( Leviticus 26:16 ) ( Deuteronomy 28:30 ) ; these are the punishments or corrections of the rod they are threatened with for their sins.

Miqueas 6:15 In-Context

13 Por eso yo también te enflaquecí 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.

16 Porque los mandamientos de Omri se han guardado, y toda obra de la casa de Acab; y en los consejos de ellos anduvisteis, para que yo te diese en asolamiento, y tus moradores para ser silbados. Llevaréis, por tanto, el oprobio de mi pueblo.
