Micah 2:6-11 - God's Word Rejected

⁶ Let not words like these be dropped, they say: Shame and the curse will not come to the family of Jacob! ⁷ Is the Lord quickly made angry? are these his doings? do not his words do good to his people Israel? ⁸ As for you, you have become haters of those who were at peace with you: you take the clothing of those who go by without fear, and make them prisoners of war. ⁹ The women of my people you have been driving away from their dearly loved children; from their young ones you are taking my glory for ever. ¹⁰ Up! and go; for this is not your rest: because it has been made unclean, the destruction ordered will come on you. ¹¹ If a man came with a false spirit of deceit, saying, I will be a prophet to you of wine and strong drink: he would be the sort of prophet for this people.
