Micah 3:6-11
6
Therefore night will come over you, without visions,
and darkness, without divination.
The sun will set for the prophets,
and the day will go dark for them.
7
The seers will be ashamed
and the diviners disgraced.
They will all cover their faces
because there is no answer from God.”
8
But 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,
to Israel his sin.
9
Hear this, you leaders of the house of Jacob,
you rulers of the house of Israel,
who despise justice
and distort all that is right;
10
who build Zion with bloodshed,
and Jerusalem with wickedness.
11
Her leaders judge for a bribe,
her priests teach for a price,
and her prophets tell fortunes for money.
Yet they lean upon the Lord and say,
“Is not the Lord among us?
No disaster will come upon us.”
