Micah 3:5-7
New International Version
5 This is what the Lord says:
“As for the prophets
who lead my people astray,(A)
they proclaim ‘peace’(B)
if they have something to eat,
but prepare to wage war against anyone
who refuses to feed them.
6 Therefore night will come over you, without visions,
and darkness, without divination.(C)
The sun will set for the prophets,(D)
and the day will go dark for them.(E)
7 The seers will be ashamed(F)
and the diviners disgraced.(G)
They will all cover(H) their faces(I)
because there is no answer from God.(J)”

False Prophets Judged
5 This is what the Lord says
concerning the prophets
who lead my people astray,(A)
who proclaim(B) peace
when they have food to sink their teeth into
but declare war against the one
who puts nothing in their mouths.
6 Therefore, it will be night(C) for you—
without visions;
it will grow dark for you—
without divination.(D)
The sun will set(E) on these prophets,
and the daylight will turn black over them.
7 Then the seers will be ashamed(F)
and the diviners disappointed.(G)
They will all cover their mouths[a](H)
because there will be no answer from God.(I)
