hese last two verses are a promise of the coming king that will lead His people, if you can get the picture of what Micah is saying it’s a picture of hope, restoration and victory. These people living in Samaria, the Northern Kingdom would soon be defeated by the Assyrians. Later in 586 B.C the southern kingdom, Jerusalem would also be defeated and carried off to Babylon by the Babylonians and so to be living during that time and hear pronounced judgment upon you, but then followed by a message of hope was very encouraging.
The book of Micah covers the reasons for God allowing the Assyrians and Babylonians to come and destroy the nation of Israel. The book contains three main messages of judgement and hope. Micah whose name means "Who is like the Lord" tells of Israels looking destruction from the Assyrians in 723 B.C. and further tells of Israels destruction by the Babylonians in 586 B.C.
