Charles Ellicott Commentary Micah 2:3

"Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks, neither shall ye walk haughtily; for it is an evil time." — Micah 2:3 (ASV)

I devise an evil. —Just as they devise evil against their brothers, so I am devising an evil against them: they will bow their necks under a hostile yoke.
