Micah 6:14-16 New English Translation (NET)

14. You will eat, but not be satisfied.Even if you have the strength to overtake some prey, you will not be able to carry it away;if you do happen to carry away something, I will deliver it over to the sword.

15. You will plant crops, but will not harvest them;you will squeeze oil from the olives, but you will have no oil to rub on your bodies;you will squeeze juice from the grapes, but you will have no wine to drink.

16. You implement the regulations of Omri, and all the practices of Ahab’s dynasty;you follow their policies.Therefore I will make you an appalling sight,the city’s inhabitants will be taunted derisively,and nations will mock all of you.”
