Micah 3:5-7
Legacy Standard Bible
5 Thus says Yahweh concerning the prophets who (A)lead my people astray;
When they have something to bite with their teeth,
They (B)call out, “Peace,”
But against him who puts nothing in their mouths,
They set themselves apart for war.
6 Therefore it will be (C)night for you—without vision,
And darkness for you—without divination.
The (D)sun will go down on the prophets,
And the day will grow black over them.
7 The seers will be (E)ashamed,
And the (F)diviners will be humiliated.
Indeed, they will all (G)cover their [a]mouths
Because there is (H)no answer from God.

Micah 3:5-7
Evangelical Heritage Version
A Rebuke for Bad Leaders
5 This is what the Lord says concerning the prophets who mislead my people:
Give them something to chew with their teeth, and they declare peace,
but they declare a holy war against anyone who doesn’t put something into their mouths.
6 Therefore, a night without prophetic vision will come upon you.
Darkness will come upon you, without any omens from God.
The sun will set for the prophets,
and daytime will become dark for them.
7 The seers will be ashamed,
and the fortune tellers will hide in disgrace.
They will all cover their mouths,[a]
because there will be no answer from God.
