Micah 3:9-11

New Living Translation

⁹ Listen to me, you leaders of Israel!
    You hate justice and twist all that is right.
¹⁰ You are building Jerusalem
    on a foundation of murder and corruption.
¹¹ You rulers make decisions based on bribes;
    you priests teach God’s laws only for a price;
you prophets won’t prophesy unless you are paid.
    Yet all of you claim to depend on the Lord.
“No harm can come to us,” you say,
    “for the Lord is here among us.”
