Micah 3:5 in Context — Micah 3
3 Vós sois os que comeis a carne de meu povo, e lhes tirais sua pele, e lhes quebrais seus ossos; e os despedaçais como para a panela, como carne dentro do caldeirão.
4 Então clamareis ao SENHOR, mas ele não vos responderá; ao invés disso esconderá sua face diante de vós naquele tempo, pois praticastes maus atos.
5 Assim diz o SENHOR contra os profetas que fazem o meu povo errar, que quando recebem comida proclamam paz, mas declaram guerra contra quem não lhes dá de comer;
6 Portanto se vos fará noite por causa da profecia, e trevas por causa da adivinhação; e o sol se porá sobre estes profetas, e o dia se escurecerá sobre eles.
7 E os videntes se envergonharão, e os adivinhos serão humilhados; todos cobrirão o lábio, porque não haverá resposta de Deus.
