Micah 6:9-16
New American Standard Bible
9 The voice of the Lord will call to the city—
And it is sound wisdom to fear Your name:
“[a]Hear, you tribe. Who has designated [b]its time?
10 Is there still a person in the wicked house,
Along with treasures of (A)wickedness,
And a [c](B)short measure that is cursed?
11 Can I justify dishonest (C)balances,
And a bag of fraudulent weights?
12 For the rich people of [d]the city are full of (D)violence,
Her residents speak (E)lies,
And their (F)tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
13 So also I will make you (G)sick, striking you down,
(H)Making you desolate because of your sins.
14 You will eat, but you will (I)not be satisfied,
And your filth will be in your midst.
You will try to remove valuables for safekeeping,
But you will (J)not save it all,
And what you do save I will turn over to the sword.
15 You will sow but you will (K)not harvest.
You will tread the olive press but will not anoint yourself with oil;
And tread out sweet wine, but you will (L)not drink any wine.
16 The statutes of (M)Omri
And every work of the house of (N)Ahab are maintained,
And you (O)walk by their plans.
Therefore I will give you up for (P)destruction,
And [e]your inhabitants for [f](Q)derision,
And you will suffer the (R)taunting of My people.”

English Standard Version
Destruction of the Wicked
9 The voice of the Lord cries to the city—
and it is sound wisdom to fear (A)your name:
“Hear of (B)the rod and of him who appointed it![a]
10 Can I forget any longer the treasures[b] of wickedness in the house of the wicked,
and the scant measure that is accursed?
11 Shall I acquit the man (C)with wicked scales
and with a bag of deceitful weights?
12 Your[c] rich men are (D)full of violence;
your inhabitants (E)speak lies,
and (F)their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
13 Therefore I strike you with a grievous blow,
(G)making you desolate because of your sins.
14 (H)You shall eat, but not be satisfied,
and there shall be hunger within you;
you shall put away, but not preserve,
and what you preserve I will give to the sword.
15 (I)You shall sow, but not reap;
you shall tread olives, but not anoint yourselves with oil;
you shall tread grapes, but not drink wine.
16 For you have kept the statutes of (J)Omri,[d]
and all the works of the house of (K)Ahab;
and you have walked in their counsels,
that I may make you (L)a desolation, and your[e] inhabitants (M)a hissing;
so you shall bear (N)the scorn of my people.”
