Micah 2:1-5

1WoeH1945 to them that deviseH2803 iniquityH205 and workH6466 evilH7451 uponH5921 their bedsH4904! when the morningH1242 is lightH216, they practise it, becauseH3588 it is in the powerH3027 of their handH3027.

2And they covetH2530 fieldsH7704, and seizeH1497 them; and housesH1004, and takeH5375 them awayH5375: and they oppressH6231 a manH376 and his houseH1004, even a manH376 and his heritageH5159.

3Therefore thusH3541 saith the LORDH3068: BeholdH2005, againstH5921 this familyH4940 do I deviseH2803 an evilH7451, from whichH834 ye shall notH3808 removeH4185 your necksH6677, neitherH3808 shall ye walk haughtilyH7317; for it is an evilH7451 time.

4In that dayH3117 shall they takeH5375 upH5375 a parableH4912 againstH5921 youH5921, and lament with a doleful lamentationH5092, and sayH559, WeH3117 be utterly spoiled: he changeth the portionH2506 of my peopleH5971: howH349 doth he removeH4185 it from meH5921! to the rebellious he divideth our fieldsH7704.

5Therefore thou shalt have noneH3808 that shall castH7993 the lineH2256 by lotH1486 in the congregationH6951 of the LORDH3068.
