I m sure there s some nice library that does this sort of thing already for you     But to just stick with the approach you re already going with  Map entrySet gives you a combined Object with the key and the value   So something like   for  Map Entry lt String  Object gt  entry   map entrySet          System out println entry getKey           entry getValue   toString         will do what you re after     If you re using java 8  there s also the new streaming approach   map forEach  key  value  - gt  System out println key         value
