Micah 3

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 3 of 7

1 And I said, Heads of Jacob and magistrates of the house of Israel, please hear. Is it not for you to know justice?

2 Those hating good and loving evil, who pull their skin off them, and their flesh from their bones;

3 and who eat the flesh of My people, and cause their skin to come off from them; yea, they break their bones and shatter them, like that which is in the pot, and as flesh in the midst of the kettle.
