Micah 2:3 in Context — Micah 2
1 ¡AY de los que piensan iniquidad, y de los que fabrican el mal en sus camas! Cuando viene la mañana lo ponen en obra, porque tienen en su mano el poder.
2 Y codiciaron las heredades, y robáronlas: y casas, y las tomaron: oprimieron al hombre y á su casa, al hombre y á su heredad.
3 Por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí, yo pienso sobre esta familia un mal, del cual no sacaréis vuestros cuellos, ni andaréis erguidos; porque el tiempo será malo.
4 En aquel tiempo se levantará sobre vosotros refrán, y se endechará endecha de lamentación, diciendo: Del todo fuimos destruídos; ha cambiado la parte de mi pueblo. ¡Cómo nos quitó nuestros campos! dió, repartiólos [á otros].
5 Por tanto, no tendrás quien eche cordel para suerte en la congregación de Jehová.
