Micah 6:10-16

10Is there yetH5750 a manH376 in the wickedH7563 houseH1004, Along with treasuresH214 of 1wickednessH7562 And a 23shortH7332 measureH374 that is cursedH2194?11Can I justifyH2135 wickedH7562 4scalesH3976 And a bagH3599 of deceptiveH4820 weightsH68?12For the richH6223 menH6223 of the 5city are fullH4390 of 6violenceH2555, Her residentsH3427 speakH1696 7liesH8267, And their 8tongueH3956 is deceitfulH7423 in their mouthH6310.13So alsoH1571 I will makeH2470 you 9sickH2470, strikingH5221 you downH5221, 10DesolatingH8074 you becauseH5921 of your sinsH2403.14You will eatH398, but you will 11not be satisfiedH7646, And your 12vilenessH3445 will be in your midstH7130. You will try to removeH5472 for safekeeping, But you will 13not preserveH6403 anything, And whatH834 you do preserveH6403 I will giveH5414 to the swordH2719.15You will sowH2232 but you will 14not reapH7114. You will treadH1869 the oliveH2132 but will not anointH5480 yourself with oilH8081; And the grapesH8492, but you will 15not drinkH8354 wineH3196.16The statutesH2708 of 16OmriH6018 And allH3605 the worksH4639 of the houseH1004 of 17AhabH256 are observedH8104; And in their devicesH4156 you 18walkH1980. ThereforeH4616 I will giveH5414 you up for 19destructionH8047 And 20your inhabitantsH3427 for 21derisionH8322, And you will bearH5375 the 22reproachH2781 of My peopleH5971.”
