Micah 7:2-4

English Standard Version

^2 (A)The godly has perished from the earth,
    and ^(B)there is no one upright among mankind;
^(C)they all lie in wait for blood,
    and ^(D)each hunts the other with a net.
^3 (E)Their hands are on what is evil, to do it well;
    ^(F)the prince and ^(G)the judge ask for a bribe,
and the great man utters the evil desire of his soul;
    thus they weave it together.
⁴ The best of them is ^(H)like a brier,
    the most upright of them a thorn hedge.
The day of ^(I)your watchmen, of your punishment, has come;
    ^(J)now their confusion is at hand.
