Micah 7:6-8
EasyEnglish Bible
6 Sons think that their fathers are fools.
And daughters refuse to obey their mothers.
Wives quarrel with their husbands' mothers.
A man's enemies are the people who live in his own house now.
7 But as for me, I will watch for what the Lord will do.
I will wait for God, who saves me.
I know that he hears me.
Israel's enemies will be ashamed
8 My enemy, do not be happy because I am in trouble.[a]
I have fallen down, but I will get up.
I am in the dark, but the Lord will be a light to me.

6 For a son dishonors his father,
a daughter rises up against her mother,(A)
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.(B)
7 But as for me, I watch(C) in hope(D) for the Lord,
I wait for God my Savior;
my God will hear(E) me.
