Micah 7:2-4
New American Standard Bible 1995
2 The [a]godly person has (A)perished from the land,
And there is no upright person among men.
All of them lie in wait for (B)bloodshed;
Each of them hunts the other with a (C)net.
3 Concerning evil, both hands do it (D)well.
The prince asks, also the judge, for a (E)bribe,
And a great man speaks the desire of his soul;
So they weave it together.
4 The best of them is like a (F)briar,
The most upright like a (G)thorn hedge.
The day when you post your watchmen,
Your (H)punishment will come.
Then their (I)confusion will occur.

Micah 7:2-4
New International Version
2 The faithful have been swept from the land;(A)
not one(B) upright person remains.
Everyone lies in wait(C) to shed blood;(D)
they hunt each other(E) with nets.(F)
3 Both hands are skilled in doing evil;(G)
the ruler demands gifts,
the judge accepts bribes,(H)
the powerful dictate what they desire—
they all conspire together.
4 The best of them is like a brier,(I)
the most upright worse than a thorn(J) hedge.
The day God visits you has come,
the day your watchmen sound the alarm.
Now is the time of your confusion.(K)
