Micah 7:8-9 The Consequences of Israel's Sins

8 Do not gloat over me, my enemy!
Though I have fallen, I will rise.
Though I sit in darkness,
the Lord will be my light.

9 Because I have sinned against him,
I will bear the Lord’s wrath,
until he pleads my case
and establishes my right.
He will bring me out into the light;
I will see his righteousness.
