Rashi, on Mic 7:14

“Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thy inheritance, them that dwell alone in the forest, in the midst of Carmel: they shall feed in Basan and Galaad according to the days of old.”

“who dwell alone—That they should dwell alone, in security. a forest in the midst of a fruitful field—Jonathan renders: Those who were desolate in a forest shall settle in the “karmel”; those who were desolate in the forests shall dwell alone in the midst of the “karmel,” which is a settled place. It is also possible to explain: who dwell alone—In the forests will not fear the wild beasts as [they would not] in the midst of a fruitful field.”
