Micah 2:6-8

International Standard Version

⁶To those who speak out, they will declare,
‘Don’t prophesy to anyone!’
so their shame won’t go away.

⁷“It is said, house of Jacob,
    ‘The Spirit of the Lord is limited,
        if he acts this way, is he not?’
“But my words benefit those who live righteously, do they not?
⁸Lately my people have acted like an enemy—
    you strip travelers who thought they were^[a] as secure
        as those who return from war.
