Micah 2:2-4
International Standard Version
2 They covet fields and seize them;
they covet[a] houses, and grab them, too.
They harass the valiant man, along with his household,
an individual and his estate.
3 “Therefore this is what the Lord says,
‘I’m crafting evil against this family,
from which you can’t escape.[b]
You won’t strut around arrogantly,
because the times are evil.’
4 “When this happens,[c] someone will compose a proverb about you, lamenting sorrowfully,
‘We are completely ruined!
He has given my people’s heritage to others.[d]
How he has removed it from me,
dividing up our fields!’
Micah 2:2-4
New International Version
2 They covet fields(A) and seize them,(B)
and houses, and take them.
They defraud(C) people of their homes,
they rob them of their inheritance.(D)
3 Therefore, the Lord says:
“I am planning disaster(E) against this people,
from which you cannot save yourselves.
You will no longer walk proudly,(F)
for it will be a time of calamity.
4 In that day people will ridicule you;
they will taunt you with this mournful song:
‘We are utterly ruined;(G)
my people’s possession is divided up.(H)
He takes it from me!
He assigns our fields to traitors.’”
