Micah:7:1-7

* Woe is me ! For I am like the gatherings of summer fruits , like the grape-gleanings of the vintage . There is no cluster to eat ; my soul desires the first-ripe fruit . * The pious has perished from the earth , and there is none upright among men . For they all lie in wait for blood ; each one hunts his brother [with ] a net . * Both hands [are ] on evil , to do [it ] well . The ruler asks for a bribe , and the judge also ; and the great man speaks the evil desire of his soul . So they weave it together . * The best of them [is ] like a briar ; the most upright [is sharper ] than a hedge of thorns . The day of your watchmen [and ] your punishment comes ; now their shame shall come . * Put no trust in a friend ; put no hope in a guide ; keep the door of your mouth from her who lies [in ] your bosom . * For the son dishonors the father ; the daughter rises up against her mother , the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law . A man 's enemies are the men of his own household . * Therefore I will look to the LORD ; I will wait for the God of my salvation . My God will hear me !
