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.
MIC-2:1 Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when
the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their
hand.
MIC-2:2 And they covet fields, and take [them] by violence; and houses, and
take [them] away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his
heritage.
MIC-2:3 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this family do I
devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go
haughtily: for this time [is] evil.
MIC-2:4 In that day shall [one] take up a parable against you, and lament
with a doleful lamentation, [and] say, We be utterly spoiled: he hath changed
the portion of my people: how hath he removed [it] from me! turning away he
hath divided our fields.
MIC-2:5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the
congregation of the LORD.
MIC-2:6 Prophesy ye not, [say they to them that] prophesy: they shall not
prophesy to them, [that] they shall not take shame.
MIC-2:7 O [thou that art] named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the LORD
straitened? [are] these his doings? do not my words do good to him that
walketh uprightly?
MIC-2:8 Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe
with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.
MIC-2:9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses;
from their children have ye taken away my glory for ever.
MIC-2:10 Arise ye, and depart; for this [is] not [your] rest: because it is
polluted, it shall destroy [you], even with a sore destruction.
MIC-2:11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, [saying], I
will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the
prophet of this people.
MIC-2:12 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather
the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as the
flock in the midst of their fold: they shall make great noise by reason of
[the multitude of] men.
MIC-2:13 The breaker is come up before them: they have broken up, and have
passed through the gate, and are gone out by it: and their king shall pass
before them, and the LORD on the head of them.
MIC-3:1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the
house of Israel; [Is it] not for you to know judgment?
MIC-3:2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from
off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
MIC-3:3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off
them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and
as flesh within the caldron.
MIC-3:4 Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will
even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill
in their doings.
MIC-3:5 Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make my people err,
that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their
mouths, they even prepare war against him.
MIC-3:6 Therefore night [shall be] unto you, that ye shall not have a vision;
and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go
down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
MIC-3:7 Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yea,
they shall all cover their lips; for [there is] no answer of God.
MIC-3:8 But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD, and of
judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel
his sin.
MIC-3:9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of
the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity.
MIC-3:10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
MIC-3:11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach
for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon
the LORD, and say, [Is] not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.
MIC-3:12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed [as] a field, and
Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places
of the forest.
MIC-4:1 But in the last days it shall come to pass, [that] the mountain of
the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it
shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.
MIC-4:2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the
mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach
us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of
Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
MIC-4:3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar
off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into
pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall
they learn war any more.
MIC-4:4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree;
and none shall make [them] afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts hath
spoken [it].
MIC-4:5 For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we
will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.
MIC-4:6 In that day, saith the LORD, will I assemble her that halteth, and I
