"Up! and go; for this is not your rest: because it has been made unclean, the destruction ordered will come on you."
— Micah 2:10, Bible in Basic English
Is the Lord quickly made angry? are these his doings? do not his words do good to his people Israel?
As for you, you have become haters of those who were at peace with you: you take the clothing of those who go by without fear, and make them prisoners of war.
The women of my people you have been driving away from their dearly loved children; from their young ones you are taking my glory for ever.
Up! and go; for this is not your rest: because it has been made unclean, the destruction ordered will come on you.
If a man came with a false spirit of deceit, saying, I will be a prophet to you of wine and strong drink: he would be the sort of prophet for this people.
I will certainly make all of you, O Jacob, come together; I will get together the rest of Israel; I will put them together like the sheep in their circle: like a flock in their green field; they will be full of the noise of men.
The opener of the way will go up before them: forcing their way out they will go on to the doorway and out through it: their king will go on before them, and the Lord at their head.
