Micah 7:3-6
New American Standard Bible
3 As for evil, both hands do it (A)well.
The leader asks for a (B)bribe, also the judge,
And the great one speaks the capricious desire of his soul;
So they plot it together.
4 The best of them is like a (C)thorn bush,
The most upright like a (D)thorn hedge.
The day [a]when you post your watchmen,
Your (E)punishment is coming.
Then their (F)confusion will occur.
5 Do not (G)trust in a neighbor;
Do not have confidence in a close friend.
Guard [b]your lips
From her who lies [c]in your arms.
6 For (H)son disavows father,
Daughter rises up against her mother,
Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;
(I)A person’s enemies are the people of his own household.
