Micah 6:12 in Context — Micah 6

10 Não há ainda na casa do perverso riquezas da perversidade, e medida enganosamente menor, o que é abominável?

11 Posso eu tolerar [quem tem] balanças falsas e bolsa de pesos enganosos?

12 Pois seus ricos estão cheios de violência, e seus moradores falaram mentiras, e suas línguas são enganosas em suas bocas.

13 Por isso eu também [te] enfraquecerei, ferindo-te e assolando-te por teus pecados.

14 Tu comerás, mas não te saciarás; e fome haverá no meio de ti; tu pegarás, mas não levarás [contigo] ; e o que levares, eu [o] entregarei à espada.
