Micah 1:6-16

6Therefore I will makeH7760 SamariaH8111 as an heapH5856 of the fieldH7704, and as the plantings of a vineyardH3754: and I will pourH5064 downH5064 the stonesH68 thereof intoH1540 the valleyH1516, and I will discover the foundationsH3247 thereof. 7And allH3605 herH3605 gravenH6456 imagesH6456 shall be beaten to piecesH3807, and allH3605 herH3605 hires shall be burnedH8313 with fireH784, and allH3605 herH3605 idolsH6091 will I layH7760 desolateH8077: for of the hireH868 of an harlotH2181 hath sheH3588 gatheredH6908 them, and unto the hireH868 of an harlotH2181 shall they returnH7725. 8For this will I wailH3213 and howlH3213, I will go stripped and nakedH6174: I will makeH6213 a wailingH4553 like the jackalsH8577, and a mourningH60 like the ostrichesH3284. 9For herH935 woundsH4347 are incurableH605: for it is comeH935 evenH5704 unto JudahH3063; it reacheth unto the gateH8179 of my peopleH5971, evenH5704 to JerusalemH3389. 10TellH5046 it notH408 in GathH1661, weepH1058 notH408 at allH1058: at Beth-le-AphrahH1036 have I rolled myself in the dustH6083. 11PassH5674 ye awayH3947, O inhabitantH3427 of ShaphirH8208, in nakednessH6181 and shameH1322: the inhabitantH3427 of ZaananH6630 is notH3808 comeH3318 forthH3318; the wailing of Beth-ezelH1018 shall takeH3947 from youH3808 the stayH3427 thereof. 12For the inhabitantH3427 of MarothH4796 waiteth anxiously for goodH2896: becauseH3588 evilH7451 is comeH3381 downH3381 from the LORDH3068 unto the gateH8179 of JerusalemH3389. 13Bind the chariotH4818 to the swiftH7409 steed, O inhabitantH3427 of LachishH3923: sheH1931 was the beginningH7225 of sinH2403 to the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726; for the transgressionsH6588 of IsraelH3478 were foundH4672 in thee. 14Therefore shalt thou giveH5414 a partingH7964 giftH5414 to Moresheth-gathH4182: the housesH1004 of AchzibH392 shall be a deceitful thingH3651 unto the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478. 15I will yet bringH935 unto thee, O inhabitantH3427 of MareshahH4762, him that shall possessH3423 thee: the gloryH3519 of IsraelH3478 shall comeH935 evenH5704 unto AdullamH5725. 16MakeH7139 thee baldH7144, and poll thee for the childrenH1121 of thy delightH8588: enlargeH7337 thy baldnessH7144 as the eagleH5404; for they are goneH4480 intoH1540 captivityH1540 from thee.
