Micah 2:9-11
Contemporary English Version
Micah 2:9-11
Contemporary English Version
9 You take over lovely homes
that belong to the women
of my nation.
Then you cheat their children
out of the inheritance
that comes from the Lord.[a]
10 Get out of here, you crooks!
You'll find no rest here.
You're not fit to belong
to the Lord's people,
and you will be destroyed.[b]
11 The only prophet you want
is a liar who will say,
“Drink and get drunk!”
Micah 2:9-11
New International Version
Micah 2:9-11
New International Version
9 You drive the women of my people
from their pleasant homes.(A)
You take away my blessing
from their children forever.
10 Get up, go away!
For this is not your resting place,(B)
because it is defiled,(C)
it is ruined, beyond all remedy.
11 If a liar and deceiver(D) comes and says,
‘I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer,’(E)
that would be just the prophet for this people!(F)

Micah 2:9-11
King James Version
9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory for ever.
10 Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.
11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people.
