Micah 3:9-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Zion’s Destruction
9 Listen to this, leaders of the house of Jacob,(A)
you rulers of the house of Israel,
who abhor justice(B)
and pervert everything that is right,
10 who build Zion with bloodshed(C)
and Jerusalem with injustice.
11 Her leaders issue rulings for a bribe,(D)
her priests teach for payment,(E)
and her prophets practice divination for money.
Yet they lean on the Lord, saying,
“Isn’t the Lord(F) among us?
No disaster will overtake us.”
12 Therefore, because of you,
Zion will be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem will become ruins,(G)
and the hill of the temple mount(H)
will be a thicket.(I)
Micah 3:9-12
International Standard Version
9 Please listen to this, you leaders of the house of Jacob,
you officials of the house of Israel,
you who hate administering justice,
who pervert the very meaning of[a] equity,
10 who are building up Zion by means of bloodshed,
and Jerusalem by means of iniquity.
11 Her leaders judge for the money,
her priests teach only when they’re paid,
and her prophets prophesy for cash.
Even so, don’t they all rely on the Lord as they ask,
‘The Lord is among us, is he not?
Nothing bad can possibly happen to us!’
12 “Therefore, because of you, Zion will be plowed up like a field,
and Jerusalem will become heaps of rubble,
and the Temple Mount like a forest high place.”
