1The word H1697 of Jehovah H3068 that came to Micah H4318 the Morashtite H4183 in the days H3117 of Jotham, H3147 Ahaz, H271 and Hezekiah, H3169 kings H4428 of Judah, H3063 which he saw H2372 concerning Samaria H8111 and Jerusalem. H3389

2Hear, H8085 ye peoples, H5971 all of you: hearken, H7181 O earth, H776 and all that therein H4393 is: and let the Lord H136 Jehovah H3069 be witness H5707 against you, the Lord H136 from his holy H6944 temple. H1964

3For, behold, Jehovah H3068 cometh forth H3318 out of his place, H4725 and will come down, H3381 and tread H1869 upon the high places H1116 of the earth. H776

4And the mountains H2022 shall be melted H4549 under him, and the valleys H6010 shall be cleft, H1234 as wax H1749 before H6440 the fire, H784 as waters H4325 that are poured H5064 down a steep place. H4174

5For the transgression H6588 of Jacob H3290 is all this, and for the sins H2403 of the house H1004 of Israel. H3478 What is the transgression H6588 of Jacob? H3290 is it not Samaria? H8111 and what are the high places H1116 of Judah? H3063 are they not Jerusalem? H3389

6Therefore I will make H7760 Samaria H8111 as a heap H5856 of the field, H7704 [and] as places for planting vineyards; H3754 and I will pour down H5064 the stones H68 thereof into the valley, H1516 and I will uncover H1540 the foundations H3247 thereof.

7And all her graven images H6456 shall be beaten to pieces, H3807 and all her hires H868 shall be burned H8313 with fire, H784 and all her idols H6091 will I lay H7760 desolate; H8077 for of the hire H868 of a harlot H2181 hath she gathered H6908 them, and unto the hire H868 of a harlot H2181 shall they return. H7725

8For this will I lament H5594 and wail; H5594 I will go H3212 stripped H7758 and naked; H6174 I will make H6213 a wailing H4553 like the jackals, H8577 and a lamentation H60 like the ostriches. H1323

9For her wounds H4347 are incurable; H605 for it is come H935 even unto Judah; H3063 it reacheth H5060 unto the gate H8179 of my people, H5971 even to Jerusalem. H3389

10Tell H5046 it not in Gath, H1661 weep H1058 not at all: H1058 at Beth-le-aphrah H1036 have I rolled H6428 myself in the dust. H6083

11Pass away, H5674 O inhabitant H3427 of Shaphir, H8208 in nakedness H6181 and shame: H1322 the inhabitant H3427 of Zaanan H6630 is not come forth; H3318 the wailing H4553 of Beth-ezel H1018 shall take H3947 from you the stay H5979 thereof.

12For the inhabitant H3427 of Maroth H4796 waiteth anxiously H2342 for good, H2896 because evil H7451 is come down H3381 from Jehovah H3068 unto the gate H8179 of Jerusalem. H3389

13Bind H7573 the chariot H4818 to the swift steed, H7409 O inhabitant H3427 of Lachish: H3923 she was the beginning H7225 of sin H2403 to the daughter H1323 of Zion; H6726 for the transgressions H6588 of Israel H3478 were found H4672 in thee.

14Therefore shalt thou give H5414 a parting gift H7964 to Moresheth-gath: H4182 the houses H1004 of Achzib H392 shall be a deceitful thing H391 unto the kings H4428 of Israel. H3478

15I will yet bring H935 unto thee, O inhabitant H3427 of Mareshah, H4762 him H3423 that shall possess thee: the glory H3519 of Israel H3478 shall come H935 even unto Adullam. H5725

16Make thee bald, H7139 and cut off H1494 thy hair for the children H1121 of thy delight: H8588 enlarge H7337 thy baldness H7144 as the eagle; H5404 for they are gone into captivity H1540 from thee.
