Micah 6:9-16
9The voice of Yahweh will call to the city—And it is sound wisdom to fear Your name:“Hear, O tribe. Who even has appointed 1its time?10“Is there yet a man in the wicked house,Along with treasures of awickedness,And a 1,bshort measure which is cursed?11“Can I purify wicked ascalesAnd a bag of deceptive weights?12“For the rich men of 1the city are full of aviolence,And her inhabitants speak blies,And their ctongue is deceitful in their mouth.13“So also I will make you asick, striking you down,bDesolating you because of your sins.14“You will eat, but you will anot be satisfied,And your 1vileness will be in your midst.And you will try to remove something for safekeeping,But you will bnot cause anything to escape,And that which you do have escape, I will give to the sword.15“You will sow but you will anot reap.You will tread the olive but will not anoint yourself with oil;And the grapes, but you will bnot drink wine.16“The statutes of aOmriAnd all the works of the house of bAhab are kept;And in their counsels you cwalk.Therefore I will give you up as dan object of horrorAnd 1your inhabitants as an eobject of hissing,And you will bear the freproach of My people.”
