Micah Is Upset at the Evil People Do

I am upset because I am like fruit that has been gathered,
    like grapes that have already been picked.
There are no grapes left to eat.
    There are none of the early figs that I love.
By this I mean that all the faithful people are gone.
    There are no good people left.
Everyone is planning to kill someone.
    Everyone is trying to trap their brother.
People are good at doing bad things with both hands.
    Officials ask for bribes.
Judges take money to change their decisions in court.
    “Important leaders” do whatever they want to do.
