Micah 1:2-7
2HearH8085, O peoplesH5971, allH3605 of 1you; 2ListenH7181, O earthH776 and 3allH4393 it containsH4393, And let the LordH136 4GodH3068 be a 5witnessH5707 against you, The LordH136 from His holyH6944 templeH1964.3For beholdH2009, the LordH3068 is 6comingH3318 forthH3318 from His placeH4725. He will comeH3381 downH3381 and 7treadH1869 on the highH1116 placesH1116 of the 8earthH776.49The mountainsH2022 will meltH4549 underH8478 Him And the valleysH6010 will be splitH1234, Like waxH1749 beforeH4480H6440 the fireH784, Like waterH4325 pouredH5064 downH5064 a steepH4174 placeH4174.5AllH3605 thisH2088 is for the rebellionH6588 of JacobH3290 And for the sinsH2403 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478. WhatH4310 is the 10rebellionH6588 of JacobH3290? Is it not 11SamariaH8111? WhatH4310 is the 12highH1116 13placeH1116 of JudahH3063? Is it not JerusalemH3389?6For I will makeH7760 SamariaH8111 a 14heapH5856 of ruinsH5856 15in the open countryH7704, 16PlantingH4302 placesH4302 for a vineyardH3754. I will 17pourH5064 her stonesH68 downH5064 into the valleyH1516 And will 18layH1540 bareH1540 her foundationsH3247.7AllH3605 of her 19idolsH6456 will be smashedH3807, AllH3605 of her earningsH868 will be burnedH8313 with fireH784 And allH3605 of her imagesH6091 I will makeH7760 desolateH8077, For she collectedH6908 them from a 20harlot’sH2181 earningsH868, And to the earningsH868 of a harlotH2181 they will returnH7725.
