Micah 1:10-14

10 1Do not tell it in Gath, Do not weep at all. At 2Beth-le-aphrah roll yourself in the dust in mourning.11 3Go on your way, inhabitant of 4Shaphir, in 5shameful nakedness. The inhabitant of 6 7Zaanan does not 8escape. The mourning of 9Beth-ezel: “He will take from you its 10support.”12For the inhabitant of 11Maroth 12 13Waits for something good, Because a disaster has come down from the Lord To the 14gate of Jerusalem.13Harness the chariot to the team of horses, You inhabitant of 15Lachish-- She was the beginning of sin To the daughter of Zion-- Because in you were found The 16rebellious acts of Israel.14Therefore you will give parting 17gifts In behalf of Moresheth-gath; The houses of 18Achzib will become a 19 20deception To the kings of Israel.
