12
The rich among you have become wealthy through extortion and violence. Your citizens are so used to lying that their tongues can no longer tell the truth.
12
For the wealthy of the city are full of violence, and its residents speak lies; the tongues in their mouths are deceitful.
Micah 6:12 In-Context
10
Am I still to forget your ill-gotten treasures, you wicked house, and the short ephah, which is accursed?
11
Shall I acquit someone with dishonest scales, with a bag of false weights?
12
Your rich people are violent; your inhabitants are liars and their tongues speak deceitfully.
13
Therefore, I have begun to destroy you, to ruin you because of your sins.
14
You will eat but not be satisfied; your stomach will still be empty.You will store up but save nothing, because what you save I will give to the sword.
