4. 那時——指審判之時，彌迦視之為當然，因其必然（比較
彌 2:3）。
他們必呼求……卻不應允——正如從前受他們壓迫之人呼求，他們不肯聽。他們的禱告必被拒絕，因那只是為脫離痛苦而發的本能呼喊，不是為脫離罪惡而發的悔改呼求。
他們的作為惡——人不能既行惡又指望得好報。
英文原文
4. Then--at the time of judgment, which Micah takes for granted, so certain is it (compare
Mic 2:3).
they cry . . . but he will not hear--just as those oppressed by them had formerly cried, and they would not hear. Their prayer shall be rejected, because it is the mere cry of nature for deliverance from pain, not that of repentance for deliverance from sin.
ill in their doings--Men cannot expect to do ill and fare well.

英文原文
