New Testament

Micah 2:3-10 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

3. Therefore the Lord says:“Behold, I am planning against these people a disaster,from which you will not remove your necks,neither will you walk haughtily;for it is an evil time.

4. In that day they will take up a parable against you,and lament with a doleful lamentation, saying,‘We are utterly ruined!My people’s possession is divided up.Indeed he takes it from me and assigns our fields to traitors!’”

5. Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in the Lord’s assembly.

6. “Don’t prophesy!”They prophesy.“Don’t prophesy about these things.Disgrace won’t overtake us.”

7. Shall it be said, O house of Jacob:“Is the Lord’s Spirit angry?Are these his doings?Don’t my words do good to him who walks blamelessly?”

8. But lately my people have risen up as an enemy.You strip the robe and clothing from those who pass by without a care, returning from battle.

9. You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses;from their young children you take away my blessing forever.

10. Arise, and depart!For this is not your resting place,because of uncleanness that destroys,even with a grievous destruction.
