Micah 2:3

Woe To The Oppressors Of God's People

² They covet fields and seize them. They covet houses and confiscate them! They oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage. ³ Therefore thus says the Lord,
“Behold, I am planning against this family a calamity
From which you cannot remove your necks;
And you will not walk haughtily,
For it will be an evil time.
⁴ In that day they will taunt you and speak mournfully with sorrow and much grief: 'We are utterly ruined! He exchanged the portion of my people and removed it from me. He divided our fields and gave them to the apostate.'
