Micah 7:2-6
New Living Translation
Micah 7:2-6
New Living Translation
2 The godly people have all disappeared;
not one honest person is left on the earth.
They are all murderers,
setting traps even for their own brothers.
3 Both their hands are equally skilled at doing evil!
Officials and judges alike demand bribes.
The people with influence get what they want,
and together they scheme to twist justice.
4 Even the best of them is like a brier;
the most honest is as dangerous as a hedge of thorns.
But your judgment day is coming swiftly now.
Your time of punishment is here, a time of confusion.
5 Don’t trust anyone—
not your best friend or even your wife!
6 For the son despises his father.
The daughter defies her mother.
The daughter-in-law defies her mother-in-law.
Your enemies are right in your own household!
Micah 7:2-6
New International Version
Micah 7:2-6
New International Version
2 The faithful have been swept from the land;(A)
not one(B) upright person remains.
Everyone lies in wait(C) to shed blood;(D)
they hunt each other(E) with nets.(F)
3 Both hands are skilled in doing evil;(G)
the ruler demands gifts,
the judge accepts bribes,(H)
the powerful dictate what they desire—
they all conspire together.
4 The best of them is like a brier,(I)
the most upright worse than a thorn(J) hedge.
The day God visits you has come,
the day your watchmen sound the alarm.
Now is the time of your confusion.(K)
5 Do not trust a neighbor;
put no confidence in a friend.(L)
Even with the woman who lies in your embrace
guard the words of your lips.
6 For a son dishonors his father,
a daughter rises up against her mother,(M)
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.(N)
