American King James Version
"Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: you pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war. "
— Micah 2:8, American King James Version
“Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.”
“But of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye strip the robe from off the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war. ”
“But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. You strip the robe and clothing from those who pass by without a care, returning from battle.”
“but you rise up as an enemy against my people. You steal a robe from a friend, from those who pass by peacefully as if returning from a war.”
“But my people, on the contrary, are risen up as an enemy: you have taken away the cloak off from the coat: and them that passed harmless you have turned to war.”
“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.”
“Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.”
Therefore you shall have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the LORD.
Prophesy you not, say they to them that prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame. ¶
O you that are named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the LORD straitened? are these his doings? do not my words do good to him that walks uprightly?
Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: you pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.
The women of my people have you cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have you taken away my glory for ever.
Arise you, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.
If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy to you of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people. ¶
