MIC-1:1 The word of the LORD that came to Micah the Morasthite
in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah,
which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
MIC-1:2 Hear, all ye people; hearken, O earth, and all that
therein is: and let the Lord GOD be witness against you, the
Lord from his holy temple.
MIC-1:3 For, behold, the LORD cometh forth out of his place, and
will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
MIC-1:4 And the mountains shall be molten under him, and the
valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, [and] as the
waters [that are] poured down a steep place.
MIC-1:5 For the transgression of Jacob [is] all this, and for
the sins of the house of Israel. What [is] the transgression of
Jacob? [is it] not Samaria? and what [are] the high places of
Judah? [are they] not Jerusalem?
MIC-1:6 Therefore I will make Samaria as an heap of the field,
[and] as plantings of a vineyard: and I will pour down the
stones thereof into the valley, and I will discover the
foundations thereof.
MIC-1:7 And all the graven images thereof shall be beaten to
pieces, and all the hires thereof shall be burned with the fire,
and all the idols thereof will I lay desolate: for she gathered
[it] of the hire of an harlot, and they shall return to the hire
of an harlot.
MIC-1:8 Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and
naked: I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as
the owls.
MIC-1:9 For her wound [is] incurable; for it is come unto Judah;
he is come unto the gate of my people, [even] to Jerusalem.
MIC-1:10 Declare ye [it] not at Gath, weep ye not at all: in the
house of Aphrah roll thyself in the dust.
MIC-1:11 Pass ye away, thou inhabitant of Saphir, having thy
shame naked: the inhabitant of Zaanan came not forth in the
mourning of Bethezel; he shall receive of you his standing.
MIC-1:12 For the inhabitant of Maroth waited carefully for good:
but evil came down from the LORD unto the gate of Jerusalem.
MIC-1:13 O thou inhabitant of Lachish, bind the chariot to the
swift beast: she [is] the beginning of the sin to the daughter
of Zion: for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
MIC-1:14 Therefore shalt thou give presents to Moreshethgath:
the houses of Achzib [shall be] a lie to the kings of Israel.
MIC-1:15 Yet will I bring an heir unto thee, O inhabitant of
Mareshah: he shall come unto Adullam the glory of Israel.
MIC-1:16 Make thee bald, and poll thee for thy delicate children;
enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone into
captivity from thee.
