Micah 3:5-7

Common English Bible

⁵ The Lord proclaims concerning the prophets,
        those who lead my people astray,
        those who chew with their teeth
            and then proclaim “Peace!”
            but stir up war against the one who puts nothing in their mouths:
⁶ Therefore, it will become night for you,
        without vision, only darkness
        without divination!
The sun will set on the prophets;
        the day will be dark upon them.
⁷ Those seeing visions will be ashamed,
        and the diviners disgraced;
    they will all cover their upper lips,^[a]
        for there will be no answer from God.
