The verses around it, from Micah 2.
6 “Do not preach,” they preach. “Do not preach these things; disgrace will not overtake us.”
7 Should it be said, O house of Jacob, “Is the Spirit of the LORD impatient? Are these the things He does?” Do not My words bring good to him who walks uprightly?

9 You drive the women of My people from their pleasant homes. You take away My blessing from their children forever.
10 Arise and depart, for this is not your place of rest, because its defilement brings destruction—a grievous destruction!
11 If a man of wind were to come and say falsely, “I will preach to you of wine and strong drink,” he would be just the preacher for this people!
12 I will surely gather all of you, O Jacob; I will collect the remnant of Israel. I will bring them together like sheep in a pen, like a flock in the midst of its pasture—a noisy throng.
