Micah 3
3
1And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Ya’akov [Heal of God], and you2f princes of the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]; [Is it] not for you to know judgment?
2Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
3Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay (stip the skin off) their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
4Then shall they cry unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.
5Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that puts not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him.
6Therefore night [shall be] unto you, that you2f shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that you2f shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
7Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yes, they shall all cover their lips; for [there is] no answer of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
8But truly I am full of power by the Spirit of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Ya’akov [Heal of God] his transgression, and to Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] his sin.
9Hear this, I pray you, you2f heads of the house of Ya’akov [Heal of God], and princes of the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity.
10They build up Tziyon [parched place] with blood, and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] with iniquity.
11The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and say, [Is] not the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) among us? none evil can come upon us.
12Therefore shall Tziyon [parched place] for your sake be plowed [as] a field, and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest.
