Micah 6:15-16
New International Reader's Version
15 You will plant seeds.
But you will not harvest any crops.
You will press olives.
But you will not use the oil.
You will crush grapes.
But you will not drink the wine
that is made from them.
16 You have followed the evil practices
of King Omri of Israel.
You have done what the family
of King Ahab did.
You have followed their bad example.
So I will let you be destroyed.
Others will make fun of you.
The nations will laugh at you.”
Micah 6:15-16
New International Version
15 You will plant but not harvest;(A)
you will press olives but not use the oil,
you will crush grapes but not drink the wine.(B)
16 You have observed the statutes of Omri(C)
and all the practices of Ahab’s(D) house;
you have followed their traditions.(E)
Therefore I will give you over to ruin(F)
and your people to derision;
you will bear the scorn(G) of the nations.[a]”
