In verse 8 Micah begins speaking as if he were one woman speaking to her enemy, another woman. This is perhaps the daughter of Zion ([Micah 1:13](../01/13.md)), who represents the people of Israel, speaking to the “daughter of soldiers” ([Micah 5:1](../05/01.md)), who represents the nations which attacked Israel.

(Some words not found in UHB: and,me in/on/at/with,LORD look wait for,God_of salvation_of,my hear,me God_of,my )
Here “me” refers to Micah.

(Occurrence 0) I will wait for the God of my salvation
(Some words not found in UHB: and,me in/on/at/with,LORD look wait for,God_of salvation_of,my hear,me God_of,my )
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word salvation, you can express the same idea with a verbal form. Alternate translation: “I will wait for the God who saves me” or “I will wait for God, who saves me”

(Occurrence 0) will hear me
(Some words not found in UHB: and,me in/on/at/with,LORD look wait for,God_of salvation_of,my hear,me God_of,my )
The word “hear” represents hearing and acting. Alternate translation: “will act to help me”
7:1-20 Hopeless deception and corruption permeated God’s people (7:1-6); God’s mercy, however, would triumph and Israel would be restored (7:11-13). God’s mercy, compassion, and unfailing love would prevail (7:14-20). Micah mourned his people’s condition and looked to the Lord for help (7:7-10).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
