SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:9 Ahora ¿por qué gimes tanto? ¿No hay rey en ti? ¿Pereció tu consejero? Te ha tomado dolor como de mujer de parto.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Micah 4:9 Verse 9. Is there no King in thee?] None. And why? Because thou hast rejected Jehovah thy king. Is thy counsellor perished?] No: but thou hast rejected the words and advices of the prophets. Pangs have taken thee] He is speaking of the desolations that should take place when the Chaldeans should come against the city; and hence he says, "Thou shalt go to Babylon;" ye shall be cast out of your own land, and sent slaves to a foreign country, He represents the people under the notion of a woman in travail.
Ver. 9. Now why dost thou cry out aloud ? etc.] Or “cry a cry” f141 ; a vehement one, or set up a most lamentable cry, as if no help or hope were to be had, but as in the most desperate condition: here the prophet represents the Jews as if they were already in captivity, and in the utmost distress, and as they certainly would be; and yet had no reason to despair of deliverance and salvation, since the Messiah would certainly come to them, and his kingdom would be set up among them, The word used has sometimes the notion of friendship and association; hence the Targum renders it, “now why art thou joined to the people?” and so Jarchi, “thou hast no need to seek friends and lovers, the kings of Egypt and Assyria, for help.” And which sense of the word as approved by Gussetius f142 . [Is there] no king in thee? is thy counsellor perished ? he it so that they were; as was the case when Zedekiah was taken and carried captive, and his princes, nobles, and counsellors killed; yet God, their King and Counsellor, was with them, to keep and preserve them, counsel, instruct, and comfort them, and at last to deliver and save them; and the King Messiah would be raised up, and sent unto them in due time, who is the Wonderful Counsellor Isaiah had prophesied of: for pangs have taken thee as a worn an in travail ; which is often expressive of great sufferings and sorrows; and yet, as the pangs of a woman in travail do not continue always, but have an end, so would theirs, and therefore there was no reason for despair; and as, when she brings forth her issue, her sorrow is turned into joy, this would be their case.
Verses 9-13 - Many nations would assemble against Zion to rejoice in her calamities They would not understand that the Lord had collected them as sheave are gathered to be threshed; and that Zion would be strengthened to beat them to pieces. Nothing has yet taken place in the history of the Jewish church agreeing with this prediction. When God has conquerin work for his people to do, he will furnish them with strength an ability for it. Believers should cry aloud under distresses, with the prayer of faith, not with despondency __________________________________________________________________
