Micah 7:2 in Context — Micah 7

1 Ai de mim! Porque sou como quando os frutos do verão são colhidos, como quando são tiradas as sobras das uvas da vindima, de modo que não resta cacho de uvas para comer; minha alma deseja frutos.

2 Já pereceu o misericordioso da terra, e não há quem seja justo entre os seres humanos; todos armam ciladas em busca de sangue; cada um arma rede de caça a seu irmão.

3 Suas mãos são habilidosas em fazer o mal; o príncipe dá ordens e o juiz julga por propina; e o grande fala o mau desejo de sua alma, e colaboram com ele.

4 O melhor dentre eles é como o espinho; o mais justo é como o espinheiro. O dia de teus vigilantes, teu castigo, vem; agora será sua confusão.
