Micah 3:7 in context

  1. 5Yahweh says concerning the prophets who lead my people astray; for those who feed their teeth, they proclaim, “Peace!” and whoever doesn’t provide for their mouths, they prepare war against him:
  2. 6“Therefore night is over you, with no vision,
    and it is dark to you, that you may not divine;
    and the sun will go down on the prophets,
    and the day will be black over them.
  3. 7The seers shall be disappointed,
    and the diviners confounded.
    Yes, they shall all cover their lips;
    for there is no answer from God.”
  4. 8But as for me, I am full of power by Yahweh’s Spirit,
    and of judgment, and of might,
    to declare to Jacob his disobedience,
    and to Israel his sin.
  5. 9Please listen to this, you heads of the house of Jacob,
    and rulers of the house of Israel,
    who abhor justice,
    and pervert all equity.
