Micah 2:1 - The Message

Doom to those who plot evil,
   who go to bed dreaming up crimes!
As soon as it’s morning,
   they’re off, full of energy, doing what they’ve planned.
They covet fields and grab them,
   find homes and take them.
They bully the neighbor and his family,
   see people only for what they can get out of them.
God has had enough. He says,
   "I have some plans of my own:
Disaster because of this interbreeding evil!
   Your necks are on the line.
You’re not walking away from this.
   It’s doomsday for you.
Mocking ballads will be sung of you,
   and you yourselves will sing the blues:
’Our lives are ruined,
   our homes and lands auctioned off.
They take everything, leave us nothing!
   All is sold to the highest bidder.’"
And there’ll be no one to stand up for you,
   no one to speak for you before God and his jury.
