Micah is the prophecy of the fourth in the great quartet of eighth-century B.C. prophets, with Amos, Hosea, and Isaiah, who preach against the idolatrous and unjust nations of their generation. Micah’s message is stern and uncompromising; judgment is to come soon for Judah.

Micah 2

2:8 Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.
