Micah 3:9–4:3

Micah 3:9–4:33 matched frames1 pivot

Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

A 9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity. 10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity. 11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.
- B 12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps,
  - C and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest.
    - D 4:1 But in the last days it shall come to pass,
  - C' that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains,
- B' and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.
A' 2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. 3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
