Micah 2

1 Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil on their beds! when the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.AKJV — Micah 2:1

2 And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.AKJV — Micah 2:2

3 Therefore thus said the LORD; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which you shall not remove your necks; neither shall you go haughtily: for this time is evil.AKJV — Micah 2:3

4 In that day shall one take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, and say, We be utterly spoiled: he has changed the portion of my people: how has he removed it from me! turning away he has divided our fields.AKJV — Micah 2:4

5 Therefore you shall have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the LORD.AKJV — Micah 2:5

6 Prophesy you not, say they to them that prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame.AKJV — Micah 2:6

7 O you that are named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the LORD straitened? are these his doings? do not my words do good to him that walks uprightly?AKJV — Micah 2:7

8 Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: you pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.AKJV — Micah 2:8

9 The women of my people have you cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have you taken away my glory for ever.AKJV — Micah 2:9

10 Arise you, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.AKJV — Micah 2:10

11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy to you of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people.AKJV — Micah 2:11

12 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of you; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as the flock in the middle of their fold: they shall make great noise by reason of the multitude of men.AKJV — Micah 2:12

13 The breaker is come up before them: they have broken up, and have passed through the gate, and are gone out by it: and their king shall pass before them, and the LORD on the head of them.AKJV — Micah 2:13
