Micah 7a - The Lonely Harvester

The prophet laments the lack of honesty and integrity in his generation. Like a harvester of figs that can find no ripe fruit to pick, there are no honest and trustworthy people anymore. All levels of leaderrship are corrupt, and people can't even trust their closet friends and family. But I the prophet will trust in God. He will bring be out of the darkness. So to the people of Israel, though they may go through dark times, God will bring them to light as well.
