Micah 2:6-11

Modern English Version

Do not My words benefit
    him who walks uprightly?
⁸ But lately My people rise up
    like an enemy.
You strip off the rich robe
    from those who pass by trustingly,
    like men returning from war.
⁹ The women of My people you drive out
    from their delightful homes;
from their children
    you take My adornment forever.
¹⁰ Get up and go,
    for this is not the resting place,
because uncleanness ruins,
    and ruin sickens.
¹¹ If a man, going about vapidly and deceitfully, lies,
    “I will preach for you wine and beer,”
    he would be just the preacher for this people.
