‏ Micah 7:3

3 They are experts at doing evil; ^{▼▼tn Heb “their hands [reach] to evil to do [it] well,” or with slight emendation “their hands are skillful at doing evil.”}
government officials and judges take bribes, ^{▼▼tn Heb “the official asks—and the judge—for a bribe.”}
prominent men announce what they wish,
and then they plan it out. ^{▼▼tn More literally, “the great one announces what his appetite desires and they weave it together.” Apparently this means that subordinates plot and maneuver to make sure the prominent man’s desires materialize.}
