Micah 6:15-16
New International Version
15 You will plant but not harvest;(A)
you will press olives but not use the oil,
you will crush grapes but not drink the wine.(B)
16 You have observed the statutes of Omri(C)
and all the practices of Ahab’s(D) house;
you have followed their traditions.(E)
Therefore I will give you over to ruin(F)
and your people to derision;
you will bear the scorn(G) of the nations.[a]”

Micah 6:15-16
King James Version
15 Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.
16 For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
