Micah 6:11-15
New International Version
11 Shall I acquit someone with dishonest scales,(A)
with a bag of false weights?(B)
12 Your rich people are violent;(C)
your inhabitants are liars(D)
and their tongues speak deceitfully.(E)
13 Therefore, I have begun to destroy(F) you,
to ruin[a] you because of your sins.
14 You will eat but not be satisfied;(G)
your stomach will still be empty.[b]
You will store up but save nothing,(H)
because what you save[c] I will give to the sword.
15 You will plant but not harvest;(I)
you will press olives but not use the oil,
you will crush grapes but not drink the wine.(J)
