弥 2:3）。
他们必哀求……他必不应允——正如从前受他们欺压者哀求，他们却不听。他们的祷告必被弃绝，因那不过是为脱离痛苦而发的本性呼喊，并非为脱离罪而发的悔改呼喊。

英文原文
4. Then--at the time of judgment, which Micah takes for granted, so certain is it (compare
Mic 2:3).

ill in their doings--Men cannot expect to do ill and fare well.

（弥 3:6）。

(2Ti 1:7).
to declare unto Jacob his . . . sin--
(Isa 58:1).

the third person puts them to a greater distance as estranged from Him. It is, literally, "Whosoever builds," singular.

(Jer 22:13; Eze 22:27; Hab 2:12).
