Micah 7:2-4
New King James Version
Micah 7:2-4
New King James Version
2 The (A)faithful[a] man has perished from the earth,
And there is no one upright among men.
They all lie in wait for blood;
(B)Every man hunts his brother with a net.
3 That they may successfully do evil with both hands—
The prince asks for gifts,
The judge seeks a (C)bribe,
And the great man utters his evil desire;
So they scheme together.
4 The best of them is (D)like a brier;
The most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge;
The day of your watchman and your punishment comes;
Now shall be their perplexity.

Micah 7:2-4
New International Version
2 The faithful have been swept from the land;(A)
not one(B) upright person remains.
Everyone lies in wait(C) to shed blood;(D)
they hunt each other(E) with nets.(F)
3 Both hands are skilled in doing evil;(G)
the ruler demands gifts,
the judge accepts bribes,(H)
the powerful dictate what they desire—
they all conspire together.
4 The best of them is like a brier,(I)
the most upright worse than a thorn(J) hedge.
The day God visits you has come,
the day your watchmen sound the alarm.
Now is the time of your confusion.(K)
