Micah 3:1-4 ▼

1 And I said, “Hear now, heads of Jacob And rulers of the house of Israel. Is it not for you to know and administer justice?

2 “You who hate good and love evil, Who tear the skin off my people And their flesh from their bones;

3 You who eat the flesh of my people, Strip off their skin from them, Break their bones And chop them in pieces as for the pot, Like meat in a kettle.”

4 Then they will cry to the LORD, But He will not answer them; Instead, He will even hide His face from them at that time [withholding His mercy] Because they have practiced and tolerated and ignored evil acts.
