Micah 3
3
Leaders and Prophets Judged
1Then I said:
Listen now, heads of Jacob,
and rulers of the house of Israel.
Should you not know justice? # Ps 82:1–5
2You who hate good and love evil,
who tear the skin from My people
and the flesh from their bones; # Ps 53:4; Eze 22:27
3you who have eaten the flesh of My people, # Ps 14:4
and have flayed their skin from them,
and broken their bones in pieces;
who have chopped them up like meat in the pot,
and like flesh in the cauldron. # Eze 11:3
4Then they will cry out to the Lord,
but He will not answer them;
He will hide His face from them at that time, # Ps 18:41; Isa 1:15
because they have wrought evil deeds.
5Thus says the Lord:
Regarding the prophets
who mislead My people # Isa 9:15–16; Jer 14:14–15 —
the ones who have something to eat
proclaim “Peace,”
but if one does not feed them,
then they prepare for war against him.
6Therefore you will have night without vision,
and you will have darkness without divination; # Isa 8:20–22; 29:10
the sun will set upon the prophets,
and black upon them will be the day.
7The seers will be shamed
and the diviners disgraced, # Isa 44:25; Zec 13:4
and they will all cover their beards,
for there is no answer from God.
8But as for me, I am filled with power,
with the Spirit of the Lord,
and with justice and might,
to declare to Jacob his transgression
and to Israel his sin. # Isa 58:1
9Please hear this, heads of the house of Jacob
and rulers of the house of Israel,
who detest justice
and warp all that is straight, # Ps 58:1–2; Isa 1:23
10who build Zion with bloodguilt
and Jerusalem with wickedness.
11Her leaders judge for a bribe,
her priests teach for a price,
and her prophets practice divination for money. # Jer 6:13
Yet upon the Lord they lean, saying,
“Is not the Lord in our midst?
Evil will not come upon us.”
12Therefore, because of you,
Zion will be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem will be mounds of ruins,
and the mountain of the house will become wooded heights. # Ps 79:1; Jer 26:18
