Micah 6:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² The rich people among you harm others.
    You are always telling lies.
    You try to fool others by what you say.
¹³ So I have begun to strike you down.
    I have begun to destroy you
    because you have sinned so much.
¹⁴ You will eat. But you will not be satisfied.
    Your stomachs will still be empty.
You will try to save what you can.
    But you will not be able to.
If you do save something,
    it will be destroyed in battle.
