Micah 3:5-7
Easy-to-Read Version
False Prophets
5 Some false prophets are telling lies to the Lord’s people. This is what the Lord says about them:
“These prophets are led by their stomachs.
They promise peace for those who give them food,
but they promise war to those who do not give them food.
6 “This is why it is like night for you
and you don’t have visions.
You cannot see what will happen in the future,
so it is like darkness to you.
The sun has gone down on the prophets.
They cannot see what will happen in the future,
so it is like darkness to them.
7 The seers are ashamed.
The fortunetellers are embarrassed.
None of them will say anything,
because God will not speak to them.”

Micah 3:5-7
New International Version
5 This is what the Lord says:
“As for the prophets
who lead my people astray,(A)
they proclaim ‘peace’(B)
if they have something to eat,
but prepare to wage war against anyone
who refuses to feed them.
6 Therefore night will come over you, without visions,
and darkness, without divination.(C)
The sun will set for the prophets,(D)
and the day will go dark for them.(E)
7 The seers will be ashamed(F)
and the diviners disgraced.(G)
They will all cover(H) their faces(I)
because there is no answer from God.(J)”
