Micah 3:4-6
International Children’s Bible
4 Then you will pray to the Lord.
But he won’t answer you.
He will hide his face from you,
because you have done evil.”
5 The Lord says this about the prophets who teach his people the wrong way of living:
“If someone gives these prophets food to eat,
they shout, ‘Peace!’
But if he doesn’t give them food,
they prepare for war against him.
6 So it will become like night to the prophets.
They won’t have any visions from the Lord.
It will become dark for them.
They won’t be able to tell what will happen in the future.
The sun is about to set for the prophets.
Their days will become dark.
Micah 3:4-6
New International Version
4 Then they will cry out to the Lord,
but he will not answer them.(A)
At that time he will hide his face(B) from them
because of the evil they have done.(C)
5 This is what the Lord says:
“As for the prophets
who lead my people astray,(D)
they proclaim ‘peace’(E)
if they have something to eat,
but prepare to wage war against anyone
who refuses to feed them.
6 Therefore night will come over you, without visions,
and darkness, without divination.(F)
The sun will set for the prophets,(G)
and the day will go dark for them.(H)
