Micah 2:7 in context

Micah 2:4–10

4

In that day they will take up a parable against you,

and lament with a doleful lamentation, saying,

‘We are utterly ruined!

My people’s possession is divided up.

Indeed he takes it from me and assigns our fields to traitors!’”

5

Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in the LORD’s assembly.

6

“Don’t prophesy!”—they prophesy—

“Don’t prophesy about these things.

Disgrace won’t overtake us.”

7
Selected verse

Shall it be said, O house of Jacob,

“Is the LORD’s Spirit angry?

Are these his doings?

Don’t my words do good to him who walks blamelessly?”

8

But lately my people have risen up as an enemy.

You strip the robe and clothing from those who pass by without a care, returning from battle.

9

You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses;

from their young children you take away my blessing forever.

10

Arise, and depart!

For this is not your resting place,

because of uncleanness that destroys,

even with a grievous destruction.
