Micah 2:3-5
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
3 Therefore thus says the Lord:
Look, I am planning against this family an evil
from which you cannot free your necks;
Nor shall you walk with head held high,
for it will be an evil time.
4 On that day you shall be mocked,
and there will be bitter lament:
“Our ruin is complete,
our fields are divided among our captors,
The fields of my people are measured out,
and no one can get them back!”[a]
5 Thus you shall have no one
in the assembly of the Lord
to allot to you a share of land.
