Micah 6:12


Micah 6:11 Micah 6:12 (KJV) Micah 6:13
Shall I count [them] pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?
For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue [is] deceitful in their mouth.
Therefore also will I make [thee] sick in smiting thee, in making [thee] desolate because of thy sins.
