Micah 2:9 · American Standard Version

Micah 2:9 in context

  1. 7Shall it be said, O house of Jacob:
    “Is Yahweh’s Spirit angry?
    Are these his doings?
    Don’t my words do good to him who walks blamelessly?”
  2. 8But lately my people have risen up as an enemy.
    You strip the robe and clothing from those who pass by without a care, returning from battle.
  3. 9You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses;
    from their young children you take away my blessing forever.
  4. 10Arise, and depart!
    For this is not your resting place,
    because of uncleanness that destroys,
    even with a grievous destruction.
  5. 11If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies:
    “I will prophesy to you of wine and of strong drink;”
    he would be the prophet of this people.
