Shepherd your people with your staff,
    the flock of your inheritance,
who dwell alone in a forest
    in the midst of a garden land;
let them graze in Bashan and Gilead
    as in the days of old. 
Micah 7:14 ESV

The people of Israel and Judah have been exiled from Samaria and Jerusalem and have yet to return. In the confusion and displacement of exile, the people need a shepherd to lead them to safe pastures. 

Forests in the ancient world often represented disorder and a lack of civilization. The people have gone there deliberately to hide. In the absence of a shepherd, they scatter, but he will gather and lead them home. He will bring them from their forest hiding into “the midst of a garden land.”
