Micah 7:3-5
Contemporary English Version

3 People cooperate to commit crime.
Judges and leaders demand bribes,
    and rulers cheat in court.[a]
4 The most honest of them
    is worse than a thorn patch.

Your doom has come!
Lookouts sound the warning,
    and everyone panics.
5 Don't trust anyone,
    not even your best friend,
and be careful what you say
    to the one you love.
