Micah 2:6-11

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ Your prophets say, “Don’t prophesy!
Don’t prophesy such things!
Disgrace will never overtake us.”
⁷ Should the descendants of Jacob be asked:
Has the Spirit of the Lord become impatient with you?
Has he done these things?
Are his words good for those who live honestly?

⁸ Recently, my people have turned into enemies.
You take coats from those who pass by without a care
as they return from war.
⁹ You force the women among my people out of their pleasant homes
and take my glory away from their children forever.
¹⁰ Get up, and go away!
This is not a place to rest!
It will be destroyed, completely destroyed,
because it offends me.
¹¹ Liars and frauds may go around and say,
“We will preach to you about wine and liquor.”
They would be just the type of preacher you want.
