New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Micah 2
7 "Is it being said, O house of Jacob: ’Is the Spirit of the Lord impatient? Are these His doings?’ Do not My words do good To the one walking uprightly?
8 "Recently My people have arisen as an enemy- You strip the robe off the garment From unsuspecting passers-by, From those returned from war.
9 "The women of My people you evict, Each one from her pleasant house. From her children you take My splendor forever.
10 "Arise and go, For this is no place of rest Because of the uncleanness that brings on destruction, A painful destruction.
11 "If a man walking after wind and falsehood Had told lies and said, ’I will speak out to you concerning wine and liquor,’ He would be spokesman to this people.
12 "I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel. I will put them together like sheep in the fold; Like a flock in the midst of its pasture They will be noisy with men.
13 "The breaker goes up before them; They break out, pass through the gate and go out by it. So their king goes on before them, And the Lord at their head."
Micah 3
1 And I said, "Hear now, heads of Jacob And rulers of the house of Israel. Is it not for you to know justice?
2 "You who hate good and love evil, Who tear off their skin from them And their flesh from their bones,
3 Who eat the flesh of my people, Strip off their skin from them, Break their bones And chop them up as for the pot And as meat in a kettle."
4 Then they will cry out to the Lord, But He will not answer them. Instead, He will hide His face from them at that time Because they have practiced evil deeds.
