Micah 2:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 But he that was [a]yesterday my people, is risen up on the other side, as against an enemy: they spoil the [b]beautiful garment from them that pass by peaceably, as though they returned from the war.
9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses, and from their children have ye taken away [c]my glory continually.
10 Arise and depart, for this is not your [d]rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.
