Micah 2:6
“Do not preach,” they preach. “Do not preach these things; disgrace will not overtake us.”
Prophesy ye not, say they to them that prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame.
Note Prophesy ye…: or, Prophesy not as they prophesy: Heb. Drop, etc
“Don’t prophesy!”—they prophesy— “Don’t prophesy about these things. Disgrace won’t overtake us.”
Prophesy ye not, thus they prophesy. They shall not prophesy to these: reproaches shall not depart.
