What does "se" mean in Micah 6:8, "Ya se te ha declarado..."?
What is the purpose of "se" in the following text from [Micah 6:8](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=micah+6%3A8&version=NVI) (Nueva Versión Internacional)?
> ¡Ya **se** te ha declarado lo que es bueno!
Ya **se** te ha dicho lo que de ti espera el Señor
It doesn't seem like this is "declararse" or "decirse." But the passive "se" doesn't seem to fit either.
Note that the [RVR1960](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=micah+6%3A8&version=RVR1960) doesn't include "se":
> Oh hombre, él te ha declarado lo que es bueno, y qué pide Jehová de ti
Why did the translators of the NVI include "se" in this verse?
