Micah:2:6-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Prophesy ye not ,
they prophesy .
If they do not prophesy to these ,
the ignominy will not depart .
*
O thou [
that art ]
named the house of Jacob ,
Is Jehovah impatient ?
are these his doings ?
Do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly ?
*
But of late my people is risen up as an enemy :
ye strip off the mantle with the garment from them that pass by securely ,
that are averse from war .
*
The women of my people do ye cast out from their pleasant houses ;
from their young children do ye take away my magnificence for ever .
*
Arise ye ,
and depart ;
for this is not the resting-place ,
because of defilement that bringeth destruction ,
even a grievous destruction .
*
If a man walking in wind and falsehood do lie , [
saying ,]
I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink ,
he shall be the prophet of this people .
