Then Micah said, “Now I know that the Lord will be good to me, because a Levite has become my priest.”

There is a way that seems right to a man,
but its end is the way to death.

He feeds on ashes.
His deceived mind has led him astray,
and he cannot deliver himself,
or say, “Isn’t there a lie in my right hand?”

One slaughters an ox, one kills a man;
one sacrifices a lamb, one breaks a dog’s neck;
one offers a grain offering, one offers pig’s blood;
one offers incense, one praises an idol—
all these have chosen their ways
and delight in their detestable practices.

They worship Me in vain,
teaching as doctrines the commands of men.

He replied, “Every plant that My heavenly Father didn’t plant will be uprooted.

They will ban you from the synagogues. In fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering service to God.

In fact, I myself supposed it was necessary to do many things in opposition to the name of Jesus the Nazarene.

I can testify about them that they have zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
