Micah 3:9-12 (New Living Translation)
View In My Bible
9
Listen to me, you leaders of Israel! You hate justice and twist all that is right.
10
You are building Jerusalem on a foundation of murder and corruption.
11
You rulers govern for the bribes you can get; you priests teach God's laws only for a price; you prophets won't prophesy unless you are paid. Yet all of you claim you are depending on the LORD. "No harm can come to us," you say, "for the LORD is here among us."
12
So because of you, Mount Zion will be plowed like an open field; Jerusalem will be reduced to rubble! A great forest will grow on the hilltop, where the Temple now stands.
