Micah 2:6-13

False Prophets 6“Do not prophesy,” their prophets say. “Do not prophesy about these things; disgrace will not overtake us.”

7You descendants of Jacob, should it be said, “Does the LORD become Or Is the Spirit of the Lord impatient? Does he do such things?” “Do not my words do good to the one whose ways are upright?

8Lately my people have risen up like an enemy. You strip off the rich robe from those who pass by without a care, like men returning from battle.

9You drive the women of my people from their pleasant homes. You take away my blessing from their children forever.

10Get up, go away! For this is not your resting place, because it is defiled, it is ruined, beyond all remedy.

11If a liar and deceiver comes and says, ‘I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer,’ that would be just the prophet for this people!

Deliverance Promised 12“I will surely gather all of you, Jacob; I will surely bring together the remnant of Israel. I will bring them together like sheep in a pen, like a flock in its pasture; the place will throng with people. 13The One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate and go out. Their King will pass through before them, the LORD at their head.”
