Micah 6:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 For the rich men thereof [a]are full of cruelty, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
13 Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee, and in making thee desolate, because of thy sins.
14 Thou shalt eat and not be satisfied, and [b]thy casting down shall be in the midst of thee, and thou [c]shalt take hold, but shalt not deliver, and that which thou deliverest, will I give up to the sword.
