Micah 7:6

Israel’s Great Misery

5Do not rely on a friend; do not trust in a companion. Seal the doors of your mouth from her who lies in your arms. 6For a son dishonors his father, a daughter rises against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man’s enemies are the members of his own household.
