“As for the prophets
who lead my people astray,
they proclaim ‘peace’
if they have something to eat,

and darkness, without divination.
The sun will set for the prophets,
and the day will go dark for them.

and darkness to you, without divination.
The sun shall go down on the prophets,

That bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace;
And he that putteth not into their mouths,
They even prepare war against him.

And the day shall be dark over them.

Darkness will cover you,
putting an end to your predictions.
The sun will set for you prophets,
and your day will come to an end.

5 Thus says the Lord concerning the prophets
Who make my people stray;
Who chant “Peace”
While they chew with their teeth,
But who prepare war against him
Who puts nothing into their mouths:

And you shall have darkness without divination;
The sun shall go down on the prophets,
And the day shall be dark for them.
Micah 3:5–6 — New Century Version (NCV)
5 The Lord says this about the prophets who teach his people the wrong way of living:
“If these prophets are given food to eat,
they shout, ‘Peace!’
But if someone doesn’t give them what they ask for,
they call for a holy war against that person.
6 So it will become like night for them, without visions.
It will become dark for them, without any way to tell the future.
The sun is about to set for the prophets;
their day will become dark.

You will have darkness without revelations.
The sun will set on the prophets,
and the day will turn dark for them.
