Micah 7:4 in Context — Micah 7
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.
5 Não creiais em amigo, nem confieis em príncipe; guardas as portas de tua boca daquela que dorme ao teu lado.
6 Porque o filho despreza o pai, a filha se levanta contra sua mãe, a nora contra sua sogra; e os inimigos do homem são os de sua própria casa.
