Micah 2:6-8

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁶ ‘^(A)Do not ^[a]speak out,’ so they ^[b]speak out.
But if ^[c]they do ^(B)not ^[d]speak out concerning these things,
^(C)Reproaches will not be turned back.
⁷ “Is it being said, O house of Jacob:
‘Is the Spirit of the Lord ^(D)impatient?
Are these His doings?’
Do not My words ^(E)do good
To the one ^(F)walking uprightly?
⁸ “^[e]Recently My people have arisen as an ^(G)enemy—
You ^(H)strip the ^[f]robe off the garment
From ^(I)unsuspecting passers-by,
From those returned from war.
