Micah 3:1-7
Micah 3:1-7 TPT
Then I said, “Listen, you leaders of the tribes of Jacob, you princes among the people of Israel. Is it not your duty to see that justice prevails? Yet you hate what is good and love what is evil. You skin my people alive, pulling the flesh off their bones. Like butchers, you tear the skin off my people. You break their bones and chop them up like stew meat for the pot. Like wild animals, you rip the flesh off their bones and devour my people. Then you will cry out to him, but he will not answer your prayers. YAHWEH will hide his face from you rulers because you have totally misused your power.” Here is what YAHWEH says against the prophets who lead my people so far from the truth: “So long as they pay you, you prophesy peace. But if they don’t, you threaten war. So, darkness will close in around you, and you will receive no prophetic visions. A shroud of darkness will bring your predictions to an end. The sun will set for the prophets, and the daylight will go dark for them. Then shame will silence the seers. Confusion will cover those who predict the future. Humiliated, they will all put their hands over their mouths because there is no word from God.”
