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
New American Standard Bible 1995
5 Thus says the Lord concerning the prophets who (A)lead my people astray;
When they have something to bite with their teeth,
They (B)cry, “Peace,”
But against him who puts nothing in their mouths
They declare holy 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 become dark over them.
7 The seers will be (E)ashamed
And the (F)diviners will be embarrassed.
Indeed, they will all (G)cover their [a]mouths
Because there is (H)no answer from God.
