Micah 7:6–7

6 For a son dishonors his father,

a daughter rises up against her mother,

a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—

a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.

7 But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord,

I wait for God my Savior;

my God will hear me.

6 For the son dishonoureth the father,

The daughter riseth up against her mother,

The daughter in law against her mother in law;

A man’s enemies are the men of his own house.

7 Therefore I will look unto the Lord;

I will wait for the God of my salvation:

My God will hear me.

6 For the son despises his father.

The daughter defies her mother.

The daughter-in-law defies her mother-in-law.

Your enemies are right in your own household!

7 As for me, I look to the Lord for help.

I wait confidently for God to save me,

and my God will certainly hear me.

6 For son dishonors father,

Daughter rises against her mother,

Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

A man’s enemies are the men of his own household.

7 Therefore I will look to the Lord;

I will wait for the God of my salvation;

My God will hear me.

6 A son will not honor his father,

a daughter will turn against her mother,

and a daughter-in-law will be against her mother-in-law;

a person’s enemies will be members of his own family.

7 Israel says, “I will look to the Lord for help.

I will wait for God to save me;

my God will hear me.

6 For the son dishonoreth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.

7 But as for me, I will look unto Jehovah; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.

6 For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law: a man’s enemies are the men of his own household.

7 But as for me, I will look unto Jehovah; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.

6 A son treats his father with contempt. 

A daughter rebels against her mother. 

A daughter-in-law rebels against her mother-in-law. 

People’s enemies are the members of their own families. 

7 I will look to the Lord. 

I will wait for God to save me. 

I will wait for my God to listen to me. 

6 Surely a son considers his father a fool,

a daughter opposes her mother,

and a daughter-in-law is against her mother-in-law;

a man’s enemies are the men of his own household.

7 But I will look to the Lord;

I will wait for the God of my salvation.

My God will hear me.

6 for the son treats the father with contempt,

the daughter rises up against her mother,

the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

your enemies are members of your own household.

7 But as for me, I will look to the Lord;

I will wait for the God of my salvation;

my God will hear me.

6 For a son treats a father with contempt;

a daughter rises up against her mother,

a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

the enemies of a man are the men of his own house.

7 But as for me, I will look to Yahweh;

I will wait for the God of my salvation.

My God will hear me.

6 Sons don’t honor their fathers.

Daughters refuse to obey their mothers.

Daughters-in-law are against their mothers-in-law.

A man’s enemies are the members of his own family.

7 So I will look to the Lord.

I’ll put my trust in God my Savior.

He will hear me.

6 For son treats father contemptuously,

Daughter rises up against her mother,

Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

A man’s enemies are the men of his own household.

7 But as for me, I will watch expectantly for the Lord;

I will wait for the God of my salvation.

My God will hear me.
