nkjv Micah:2-3.

nkjv@Micah:2:1 @ Woe to those who devise iniquity, And work out evil on their beds! At morning light they practice it, Because it is in the power of their hand.

nkjv@Micah:2:2 @ They covet fields and take them by violence, Also houses, and seize them. So they oppress a man and his house, A man and his inheritance.

nkjv@Micah:2:3 @ Therefore thus says the LORD: "Behold, against this family I am devising disaster, From which you cannot remove your necks; Nor shall you walk haughtily, For this is an evil time.

nkjv@Micah:2:4 @ In that day one shall take up a proverb against you, And lament with a bitter lamentation, saying: "We are utterly destroyed! He has changed the heritage of my people; How He has removed it from me! To a turncoat He has divided our fields."'

nkjv@Micah:2:5 @ Therefore you will have no one to determine boundaries by lot In the assembly of the LORD.

nkjv@Micah:2:6 @ "Do not prattle," you say to those who prophesy. So they shall not prophesy to you; They shall not return insult for insult.

nkjv@Micah:2:7 @ You who are named the house of Jacob: "Is the Spirit of the LORD restricted? Are these His doings? Do not My words do good To him who walks uprightly?

nkjv@Micah:2:8 @ "Lately My people have risen up as an enemy-- You pull off the robe with the garment From those who trust you, as they pass by, Like men returned from war.

nkjv@Micah:2:9 @ The women of My people you cast out From their pleasant houses; From their children You have taken away My glory forever.

nkjv@Micah:2:10 @ "Arise and depart, For this is not your rest; Because it is defiled, it shall destroy, Yes, with utter destruction.

nkjv@Micah:2:11 @ If a man should walk in a false spirit And speak a lie, saying, "I will prophesy to you of wine and drink,' Even he would be the prattler of this people.

nkjv@Micah:2:12 @ "I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together like sheep of the fold, Like a flock in the midst of their pasture; They shall make a loud noise because of so many people.

nkjv@Micah:2:13 @ The one who breaks open will come up before them; They will break out, Pass through the gate, And go out by it; Their king will pass before them, With the LORD at their head."

nkjv@Micah:3:1 @ And I said: "Hear now, O heads of Jacob, And you rulers of the house of Israel: Is it not for you to know justice?

nkjv@Micah:3:2 @ You who hate good and love evil; Who strip the skin from My people, And the flesh from their bones;

nkjv@Micah:3:3 @ Who also eat the flesh of My people, Flay their skin from them, Break their bones, And chop them in pieces Like meat for the pot, Like flesh in the caldron."

nkjv@Micah:3:4 @ Then they will cry to the LORD, But He will not hear them; He will even hide His face from them at that time, Because they have been evil in their deeds.

nkjv@Micah:3:5 @ Thus says the LORD concerning the prophets Who make my people stray; Who chant "Peace" While they chew with their teeth, But who prepare war against him Who puts nothing into their mouths:

nkjv@Micah:3:6 @ "Therefore you shall have night without vision, And you shall have darkness without divination; The sun shall go down on the prophets, And the day shall be dark for them.

nkjv@Micah:3:7 @ So the seers shall be ashamed, And the diviners abashed; Indeed they shall all cover their lips; For there is no answer from God."

nkjv@Micah:3:8 @ But truly I am full of power by the Spirit of the LORD, And of justice and might, To declare to Jacob his transgression And to Israel his sin.

nkjv@Micah:3:9 @ Now hear this, You heads of the house of Jacob And rulers of the house of Israel, Who abhor justice And pervert all equity,

nkjv@Micah:3:10 @ Who build up Zion with bloodshed And Jerusalem with iniquity:

nkjv@Micah:3:11 @ Her heads judge for a bribe, Her priests teach for pay, And her prophets divine for money. Yet they lean on the LORD, and say, "Is not the LORD among us? No harm can come upon us."

nkjv@Micah:3:12 @ Therefore because of you Zion shall be plowed like a field, Jerusalem shall become heaps of ruins, And the mountain of the temple Like the bare hills of the forest.

nkjv@Micah:4:1 @ Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the LORD's house Shall be established on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And peoples shall flow to it.
