Micah 7:8-10

International Standard Version

⁸ Don’t be glad on my account, my enemy.
    When I fall, I’ll get up.
Though I sit in darkness,
    the Lord is a light for me.
⁹ I will endure the Lord’s anger—
    since I have sinned against him—
until he takes over my defense,
    administers justice on my behalf,
and brings me out to the light,
    where I will gaze on his righteousness.
¹⁰ Then my enemy will observe it,
    and shame will engulf the ones^[a] who asked me,
        ‘Where is the Lord your God?’
My own eyes will see them,^[b]
    they^[c] will be trampled on like mud in the streets.
