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 who also eat the flesh of My people, and cause their skin to come off from them; yea, they break their bones and shatter, like that in the pot, and as flesh in the midst of the kettle.
4 Then they shall cry out to Jehovah, but He will not answer them. He will even hide His face from them in that time, as they have done evil in their doings.
Micah 3:1-4
BBE(i)
1 And I said, Give ear, now, you heads of Jacob and rulers of the people of Israel: is it not for you to have knowledge of what is right?
2 You who are haters of good and lovers of evil, pulling off their skin from them and their flesh from their bones;
3 Like meat they take the flesh of my people for their food, skinning them and crushing their bones, yes, cutting them up as if for the pot, like flesh inside the cooking-pot.
4 Then they will be crying to the Lord for help, but he will not give them an answer: yes, he will keep his face veiled from them at that time, because their acts have been evil.

1 I said: »Please listen, you heads of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel: is it not your responsibility to know justice?
2 »You hate good and love evil! You rip off their skin and their flesh from off their bones!
3 »You eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them! You break their bones, and chop them in pieces similar to the contents of a pot or a caldron.
4 »They will cry to Jehovah but he will not answer them. In fact, he will hide his face from them at that time because they have done evil things.«
