Micah 2:2-4
Complete Jewish Bible
2 They covet fields and seize them;
they take over houses as well,
doing violence to both owner and house,
to people and their inherited land.
3 Therefore this is what Adonai says:
“Against this family I am planning an evil
from which you will not withdraw your necks;
nor will you walk with your heads held high,
for it will be an evil time.”
4 On that day they will take up a dirge for you;
sadly lamenting, they will wail,
“We are completely ruined!
Our people’s land has changed hands.
Our fields are taken away from us;
instead of restoring them, he parcels them out.”
Micah 2:2-4
New International Version
2 They covet fields(A) and seize them,(B)
and houses, and take them.
They defraud(C) people of their homes,
they rob them of their inheritance.(D)
3 Therefore, the Lord says:
“I am planning disaster(E) against this people,
from which you cannot save yourselves.
You will no longer walk proudly,(F)
for it will be a time of calamity.
4 In that day people will ridicule you;
they will taunt you with this mournful song:
‘We are utterly ruined;(G)
my people’s possession is divided up.(H)
He takes it from me!
He assigns our fields to traitors.’”
