Micah 2:12-13

Woe to the Oppressors

12 I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob;
e I will gather f the remnant of Israel;
I will set them together
like sheep in a fold,
h like a flock in its pasture,
a noisy multitude of men.
13 i He who opens the breach goes up before them;
they break through and pass the gate,
j going out by it.
Their king passes on before them,
k the Lord at their head.
