Micah said, "Stay with me. Be my adviser and priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver a year, some clothes, and your food."

A leech has two daughters, and both are named "Give me!" There are four things that are never satisfied:

They are like greedy dogs that never get enough. These leaders have no understanding. They each do as they please and seek their own advantage.

You dishonor me in front of my people in order to get a few handfuls of barley and a few pieces of bread. You kill people who don't deserve to die, and you keep people alive who don't deserve to live. So you tell lies to my people, and they believe you."

And so the land will dry up, and everything that lives on it will die. All the animals and birds, and even the fish, will die."

I have not wanted anyone's silver or gold or clothing.

They are going to end up in hell, because their god is their bodily desires. They are proud of what they should be ashamed of, and they think only of things that belong to this world.

In their greed these false teachers will make a profit out of telling you made-up stories. For a long time now their Judge has been ready, and their Destroyer has been wide awake!

They have left the straight path and have lost their way; they have followed the path taken by Balaam son of Beor, who loved the money he would get for doing wrong

and was rebuked for his sin. His donkey spoke with a human voice and stopped the prophet's insane action.
