Micah 2:1-5

Human Plans and God’s Plans 1Woe to those who plan iniquity, to those who plot evil on their beds! At morning’s light they carry it out because it is in their power to do it.

2They covet fields and seize them, and houses, and take them. They defraud people of their homes, they rob them of their inheritance.

3Therefore, the LORD says: “I am planning disaster against this people, from which you cannot save yourselves. You will no longer walk proudly, for it will be a time of calamity.

4In that day people will ridicule you; they will taunt you with this mournful song: ‘We are utterly ruined; my people’s possession is divided up. He takes it from me! He assigns our fields to traitors.’ ”

5Therefore you will have no one in the assembly of the LORD to divide the land by lot.
