Micah 7:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Trust ye not in a friend, neither put ye confidence in a counselor: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.
6 For the son revileth the father: the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, and a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.
7 Therefore [a]I will look unto the Lord: I will wait for God my Savior: my God will hear me.

Micah 7:5-7
New International Version
5 Do not trust a neighbor;
put no confidence in a friend.(A)
Even with the woman who lies in your embrace
guard the words of your lips.
6 For a son dishonors his father,
a daughter rises up against her mother,(B)
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.(C)
