# General Information:

Micah continues speaking.

# cry out to Yahweh

"shout to Yahweh for help"

# he will not answer you

"he will not do what you ask him to do"

# He will hide his face from you

Hiding the face is a metaphor for refusing to listen. Alternate translation: "He will turn his face away from you and cover it" or "You will see that he has no desire to help you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
