Micah 3:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶So night will come on the prophets.
    But they will not have any visions.
Darkness will cover them.
    But they will not be able
    to figure out what is going to happen.
The sun will set on the prophets.
    The day will become dark for them.
⁷Those who see visions will be put to shame.
    Those who try to figure out what is going to happen
    will be dishonored.
All of them will cover their faces.
    I will not answer them.”

⁸The Spirit of the Lord
    has filled me with power.
He helps me do what is fair.
    He makes me brave.
Now I’m prepared to tell Jacob’s people
    what they’ve done wrong.
    I’m ready to tell Israel they’ve sinned.
