Micah 2:9-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
9 The women of my people you drive out
from their pleasant houses;
From their children you take away
forever the honor I gave them.
10 [a]“Get up! Leave,
this is no place to rest”;
Because of uncleanness that destroys
with terrible destruction.
11 If one possessed of a lying spirit(A)
speaks deceitfully, saying,
“I will preach to you wine and strong drink,”
that one would be the preacher for this people.

New International Version
9 You drive the women of my people
from their pleasant homes.(A)
You take away my blessing
from their children forever.
10 Get up, go away!
For this is not your resting place,(B)
because it is defiled,(C)
it is ruined, beyond all remedy.
11 If a liar and deceiver(D) comes and says,
‘I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer,’(E)
that would be just the prophet for this people!(F)
Micah 2:9-11
King James Version
9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory for ever.
10 Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.
11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people.
