Mikha 7:5-6

7:5 Do not rely on a friend;

do not trust a companion!

Don’t even share secrets with the one who lies in your arms! ¹ 

7:6 For a son thinks his father is a fool,

a daughter challenges ²  her mother,

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

a man’s enemies are his own servants. ³ 

[7:5]  ¹ tn Heb “from the one who lies in your arms, guard the doors of your mouth.”

[7:6]  ² tn Heb “rises up against.”

[7:6]  ³ tn Heb “the enemies of a man are the men of his house.”
