Micah 4:6

SalvationSickness and healing

4 And each man will sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree, with no one to frighten him. For the mouth of the LORD of Hosts has spoken.

5 Though each of the peoples may walk in the name of his god, yet we will walk in the name of the LORD our God forever and ever.

“On that day,” declares the LORD, “I will gather the lame; I will assemble the outcast, even those whom I have afflicted.

7 And I will make the lame into a remnant, and the outcast into a strong nation. Then the LORD will rule over them in Mount Zion from that day and forever.

8 And you, O watchtower of the flock, O stronghold of the Daughter of Zion— the former dominion will be restored to you; sovereignty will come to the Daughter of Jerusalem.”

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
