Micah 3:1-4

KJV

NIV

1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel; Is it not for you to know judgment?
1 Then I said, “Listen, you leaders of Jacob, you rulers of Israel. Should you not embrace justice,
2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
2 you who hate good and love evil; who tear the skin from my people and the flesh from their bones;
3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
3 who eat my people’s flesh, strip off their skin and break their bones in pieces; who chop them up like meat for the pan, like flesh for the pot?”
4 Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.
4 Then they will cry out to the LORD, but he will not answer them. At that time he will hide his face from them because of the evil they have done.
