"Hear this, you leaders of the house of Jacob, you rulers of the house of Israel, who despise justice and distort all that is right; who build Zion with bloodshed, and Jerusalem with wickedness.
Her leaders judge for a bribe, her priests teach for a price, and her prophets tell fortunes for money.
Yet they lean upon the Lord and say, "Is not the Lord among us? No disaster will come upon us."
(Mica: 3 v 9-11)

The Sovereign Lord has spoken!
"When a trumpet sounds in a city, do not the people tremble? When disaster comes to a city, has not the Lord caused it?
Surely the Sovereign Lord does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets.
The lion has roared-- who will not fear? The Sovereign Lord has spoken-- who can but prophesy?"
(Amos:3v6-8)
