Micah 2:10

God's Word Rejected

⁹ You force the women of My people
out of their comfortable homes,
and you take My blessing
from their children forever.
¹⁰ Get up and leave,
for this is not your place of rest,
because defilement brings destruction—
a grievous destruction!
¹¹ If a man of wind comes
and invents lies:
“I will preach to you about wine and beer,”
he would be just the preacher for this people!
