Micah 5:13Easy To Read VersionI will destroy your statues \{of false gods\}.\par I will pull down your stones for remembering those false gods.\par You will not worship the things\par that your hands have made.\par See the chapter |
And they won’t continue to make themselves filthy with their idols {\cf2\super [296]} and horrible statues or with any of their other crimes. But I will save them from all the places where they have sinned. And I will wash them and make them pure. And they will be my people, and I will be their God.
Then those survivors {\cf2\super [50]} will be taken prisoners. They will be forced to live in other countries. But those survivors will remember me. I broke their spirit. {\cf2\super [51]} They will hate themselves for the bad things they did. In the past, they turned away from me and left me. They chased after their filthy idols. They were like a woman leaving her husband and running after some other man. They did many terrible things.
\{King of Assyria,\}\par the Lord gave this command about you:\par “You will not have any descendants\par to wear your name.\par I will destroy your carved idols\par and metal statues that are in the temple\par of your gods.\par I am preparing your grave for you\par because your end is coming soon! {\cf2\super [4]} \par
The other people \{on the earth\} were not killed by these bad things. But these people still did not change their hearts and lives and turn away from the things they had made with their own hands. They did not stop worshiping demons {\cf2\super [72]} and idols {\cf2\super [73]} made of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood—things that cannot see or hear or walk.
