Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grapegleanings of the vintage: [there is] no cluster to eat: my soul desired the firstripe fruit.
Micah 7:1 — KJV
Woe is me! Israel, or Zion, seems to be the speaker, or probably the repentant part of Israel.
Summer fruits. The application of the figure may be suggested by verse 2. As after the fruit is harvested none of it is to be found in the field, so after the harvest of evil no righteous man is to be found in Israel. Or Zion may be represented as the one who comes seeking fruit after the harvest has been gathered, and finds none.
