Micah 2:11 in Context — Micah 2

9 A las mujeres de mi pueblo echasteis fuera de las casas de sus delicias: á sus niños quitasteis mi perpetua alabanza.

10 Levantaos, y andad, que no es ésta la holganza; porque [está] contaminada, corrompióse, y de grande corrupción.

11 Si [hubiere] alguno que ande con el viento, y finja mentiras [diciendo]: Yo te profetizaré de vino y de sidra; este tal será profeta á este pueblo.

12 De cierto te reuniré todo, oh Jacob: recogeré ciertamente el resto de Israel: pondrélo junto como ovejas de Bosra, como rebaño en mitad de su majada: harán estruendo por [la multitud de] los hombres.

13 Subirá rompedor delante de ellos; romperán y pasarán la puerta, y saldrán por ella: y su rey pasará delante de ellos, y á la cabeza de ellos Jehová.
