Micah 7:6

For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; a man's enemies [are] the men of his own house.

Ver. 6. For the son dishonoureth the father] Or, revileth the father (Menabbel), be-Nabals him, beknaves him (of Nabal comes Nebulo), turpitudine afficit, bepastles him, vilifleth him. This is monstrous wickedness, Malachi 1:6, and a sure sign the devil hath set his limbs in a man that is thus unnatural, fierce, traitorous, heady, high-minded; which yet is foretold of these dregs of time, these last and worst days, both by our Saviour, Matthew 10:21; Matthew 10:35,36, and likewise by St Paul, 2 Timothy 3:3,4. Such a son was he who, when his father complained that never father had so undutiful a child as he had: Yes, said his son (with less grace than wit), my grandfather had. Such a son was Ham, and Absalom, and Amida, son of Muleasses, King of Tunis, who cast his father out of his kingdom, and put out his eyes; and Henry, eldest son to our Henry II, who rebelled against his father, and died before him of a fever and a flux, with excoriation of the bowels; and, lastly, Adolphus Egmondanus, who imprisoned his own father six years for no other cause but for living so long, and keeping him from the dukedom of Guelderland.

The daughter riseth up against her mother] As Mr Fox mentioneth some that witnessed against their own parents here in Queen Mary's days, and were a means of their martyrdom.

A man's enemies are the men of his own house] See Matthew 10:36. See Trapp on " Mat 10:36 " Take our Saviour's counsel there; "Be ye wise as serpents, innocent as doves"; but beware of men, yea, of the men of your own house.
