Micah 7:2-6

2The godlyH2623 man has perishedH6 fromH4480 the earthH776; there is noH369 one uprightH3477 among menH120. They allH3605 lie in waitH693 for bloodH1818; they huntH6679 oneH376 anotherH251 with a netH2764.3Both handsH3709 are skilledH3190 at evilH7451; the princeH8269 and the judgeH8199 demandH7592 a bribeH7966. When the powerfulH1419 uttersH1696 hisH1931 evilH1942 desireH5315, they all conspire togetherH5686.4The best of themH2896 is like a brierH2312; the most uprightH3477 is sharper than a hedge of thornsH4534. The dayH3117 for your watchmenH6822 has comeH935, the day of your visitationH6486.1 NowH6258 isH1961 the time of their confusionH3998.5Do notH408 relyH539 on a friendH7453; do notH408 trustH982 in a companionH441. SealH8104 the doorsH6607 of your mouthH6310 from her who liesH7901 in your armsH2436.26ForH3588 a sonH1121 dishonorsH5034 his fatherH1, a daughterH1323 risesH6965 against her motherH517, and a daughter-in-lawH3618 against her mother-in-lawH2545. A man’sH376 enemiesH341 are the membersH582 of his own householdH1004.3
