Micah 3:6

6 Because of this, night will be yours for vision, and darkness yours for divination, and the sun will meet with death over the prophets, and the day will be darkened over them. ^{▼▼3:6The word ‘occumbet’ means to meet with death or to meet ones death. Translators should not soften or weaken the sharp rebukes often found in Scripture. Of course, this phrase is metaphorical, the sun does not literally die. But it is a sharply phrased correction of false prophets and Pharisee-like spiritual leaders. It also refers to the three hours of darkness when Jesus was on the Cross, and to the three days of darkness at the end of the first part of the tribulation.(Conte)}
