Mica 7:5-7
Hoffnung für Alle
5 Trau keinem einzigen Menschen mehr, nicht einmal dem besten Freund! Sei verschwiegen wie ein Grab, auch bei der Frau in deinen Armen! 6 Denn der Sohn achtet den Vater nicht mehr, die Tochter lehnt sich gegen die Mutter auf und die Schwiegertochter gegen die Schwiegermutter. Die eigenen Angehörigen werden zu Feinden!
7 Doch ich verlasse mich auf den Herrn, ich warte auf seine Hilfe. Ja, mein Gott wird mich erhören!

Micah 7:5-7
New International Version
5 Do not trust a neighbor;
put no confidence in a friend.(A)
Even with the woman who lies in your embrace
guard the words of your lips.
6 For a son dishonors his father,
a daughter rises up against her mother,(B)
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.(C)
Micah 7:5-7
King James Version
5 Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.
6 For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
7 Therefore I will look unto the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.

Micah 7:5-7
English Standard Version
5 (A)Put no trust in a neighbor;
have no confidence in a friend;
guard (B)the doors of your mouth
from her who lies in your arms;[a]
6 for (C)the son treats the father with contempt,
the daughter rises up against her mother,
the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;
(D)a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
7 But as for me, I will look to the Lord;
(E)I will wait for the God of my salvation;
my God will hear me.
