Micah 7:4-6

International Children’s Bible

⁴ Even the best of them is like a thornbush.
    Even the nicest of them is worse than a thornbush.
Your watchmen^[a] warned you about this day.
    Now it has come.
Now you will be punished.
    Your punishment will amaze you.
⁵ Don’t trust your neighbor.
    Don’t even trust a friend.
Be careful what you say,
    even to your wife.
⁶ A son will not honor his father.
    A daughter will turn against her mother.
A daughter-in-law will fight with her mother-in-law.
    A person’s enemies will be members of his own family.
