Micah 7:4 Cross References
But the sons of Belial shall be all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands:
Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
