Micah 2:1-3

Good News Translation

The Fate of Those Who Oppress the Poor

2 How terrible it will be for those who lie awake and plan evil! When morning comes, as soon as they have the chance, they do the evil they planned. ² When they want fields, they seize them; when they want houses, they take them. No one's family or property is safe.

³ And so the Lord says, “I am planning to bring disaster on you, and you will not be able to escape it. You are going to find yourselves in trouble, and then you will not walk so proudly any more.
