Miqueas 2:2

2 Codician campos, y se apropian de ellos;casas, y de ellas se adueñan.Oprimen al varón y a su familia,al hombre y a su propiedad.

Miqueas 2:2 Meaning and Commentary

Micah 2:2

And they covet fields, and take [them] by violence
The fields of their poor neighbours, which lie near them, and convenient for them; they wish they were theirs, and they contrive ways and means to get them into their possession; and if they cannot get them by fair means, if they cannot persuade them to sell them, or at their price, they will either use some crafty method to get them from them, or they will take them away by force and violence; as Ahab got Naboth's vineyard from him: and houses, and take [them] away;
they covet the houses of their neighbours also, and take the same course to get them out of their hands, and add them to their own estates: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage;
not only dispossess him of his house to dwell in, but of his paternal inheritance, what he received from his ancestors, and should have transmitted to his posterity, being unalienable; and so distressed a man and his family for the present, and his posterity after him. The Vulgate Latin version is, "they calumniate a man and his house"; which seems to be designed to make it agree with the story of Ahab, ( 1 Kings 21:13 ) .

Miqueas 2:2 In-Context

1 ¡Ay de los que solo piensan en el mal,y aun acostados hacen planes malvados!En cuanto amanece, los llevan a caboporque tienen el poder en sus manos.
2 Codician campos, y se apropian de ellos;casas, y de ellas se adueñan.Oprimen al varón y a su familia,al hombre y a su propiedad.
3 Por tanto, así dice el SEÑOR:«Ahora soy yo el que piensatraer sobre ellos una desgracia,de la que no podrán escapar.Ya no andarán erguidos,porque ha llegado la hora de su desgracia.
4 En aquel día se les hará burla,y se les cantará este lamento:“¡Estamos perdidos!Se están repartiendo los campos de mi pueblo.¡Cómo me los arrebatan!Nuestra tierra se la reparten los traidores”».
5 Por eso no tendrán en la asamblea del SEÑORa nadie que reparta la tierra.
