Micah 2:6-11

The prophets say, “Don’t prophesy to us! Don’t prophesy about these things! Nothing to make us feel bad will happen!” But I must say this, people of Jacob: The LORD is becoming angry about what you have done. My words are welcome to the person who does what is right. But you are fighting against my people like an enemy. You take the coats from people who pass by; you rob them of their safety; you plan war. You’ve forced the women of my people from their nice houses; you’ve taken my glory from their children forever. Get up and leave. This is not your place of rest anymore. You have made this place unclean, and it is doomed to destruction. But you people want a false prophet who will tell you nothing but lies. You want one who promises to prophesy good things for you if you give him wine and beer. He’s just the prophet for you.
