Micah 6:9-16
9The voiceH6963 of the LordH3068 will callH7121 to the cityH5892-- And it is soundH8454 wisdomH8454 to fearH3372 Your nameH8034: “1HearH8085, you tribeH4294. WhoH4310 has designatedH3259 2its time?10Is there stillH5750 a personH376 in the wickedH7563 houseH1004, Along with treasuresH214 of 3wickednessH7562, And a 45shortH7332 measureH374 that is cursedH2194?11Can I justifyH2135 dishonestH7562 6balancesH3976, And a bagH3599 of fraudulentH4820 weightsH68?12For the richH6223 peopleH6223 of 7the city are fullH4390 of 8violenceH2555, Her residentsH3427 speakH1696 9liesH8267, And their 10tongueH3956 is deceitfulH7423 in their mouthH6310.13So alsoH1571 I will makeH2470 you 11sickH2470, strikingH5221 you down, 12MakingH8074 you desolateH8074 becauseH5921 of your sinsH2403.14You will eatH398, but you will 13not beH7646 satisfiedH7646, And your filthH3445 will be in your midstH7130. You will try to removeH5472 valuables for safekeeping, But you will 14not saveH6403 it all, And whatH834 you do saveH6403 I will turnH5414 overH5414 to the swordH2719.15You will sowH2232 but you will 15not harvestH7114. You will treadH1869 the oliveH2132 press but will not anointH5480 yourself with oilH8081; And tread out sweetH8492 wineH8492, but you will 16not drinkH8354 any wineH3196.16The statutesH2708 of 17OmriH6018 And everyH3605 workH4639 of the houseH1004 of 18AhabH256 are maintainedH8104, And you 19walkH1980 by their plansH4156. ThereforeH4616 I will giveH5414 you upH5414 for 20destructionH8047, And 21your inhabitantsH3427 for 2223derisionH8322, And you will sufferH5375 the 24tauntingH2781 of My peopleH5971.”
