Micah 2:3-5

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³ Therefore thus says the Lord:
Now, I am devising against this family an evil
    from which you cannot remove your necks;
and you shall not walk haughtily,
    for it will be an evil time.
⁴ On that day they shall take up a taunt song against you,
    and wail with bitter lamentation,
and say, “We are utterly ruined;
    the Lord^[a] alters the inheritance of my people;
how he removes it from me!
    Among our captors^[b] he parcels out our fields.”
⁵ Therefore you will have no one to cast the line by lot
    in the assembly of the Lord.
