Micah 7:2-6

2The godly manH376 is perishedH6 out of the earthH776, and there is none uprightH3477 among menH376: they all lieH693 in waitH693 for bloodH1818; they huntH6679 every manH376 his brotherH251 with a net. 3Their handsH3709 are upon that which is evilH7451 to do it diligently; the princeH8269 asketh, and the judgeH8199 is ready for a reward; and the greatH1419 man, he uttereth the evilH7451 desireH5315 of his soulH5315: thus they weave it together. 4The bestH2896 of them is as a brier; the most uprightH3477 is worse than a thorn hedge: the dayH3117 of thy watchmenH6822, even thy visitation, is comeH935; nowH6258 shall beH1961 their perplexity. 5TrustH982 ye not in a neighborH7453; put ye not confidence in a friendH7453; keepH8104 the doorsH6607 of thy mouthH6310 from her that lieth in thy bosomH2436. 6For the sonH1121 dishonoreth the fatherH1, the daughterH1323 riseth up against her motherH517, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man’sH376 enemiesH341 are the menH376 of his own houseH1004.
