Micah 2:4

Woe To The Oppressors Of God's People

³ Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks, neither shall ye walk haughtily; for it is an evil time. ⁴ In that day shall they take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, and'say, We are utterly ruined: he changeth the portion of my people: how doth he remove it from me! to the rebellious he divideth our fields. ⁵ Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast the line by lot in the assembly of Jehovah.
