# General Information:
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), who represents the people of Israel, speaking to the "daughter of soldiers" (Micah 5:1), who represents the nations which attacked Israel. All commands and instances of "you" are feminine singular.
