12 People will flock to you
    from Assyria and Egypt,
from Babylonia[a]
    and everywhere else.
13 Those nations will suffer disaster
    because of what they did.

Micah's Prayer and the Lord's Answer

14 Lead your people, Lord!
    Come and be our shepherd.
Grasslands surround us,
    but we live in a forest.
So lead us to Bashan and Gilead,[b]
and let us find pasture
    as we did long ago.
