Book 33 Micah Chapter 001

 

001:001The 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.

 

001:002Hear, 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.

 

001:003For, behold, the LORD cometh forth out of his place, and will
come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.

 

001:004And 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.

 

001:005For 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?

 

001:006Therefore 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.

 

001:007And 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.

 

001:008Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and naked:
I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as the
owls.

 

001:009For her wound is incurable; for it is come unto Judah; he is
come unto the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.

 

001:010Declare ye it not at Gath, weep ye not at all: in the house of
Aphrah roll thyself in the dust.

 

001:011Pass 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.

 

001:012For the inhabitant of Maroth waited carefully for good: but
evil came down from the LORD unto the gate of Jerusalem.

 

001:013O 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.

 

001:014Therefore shalt thou give presents to Moreshethgath: the
houses of Achzib shall be a lie to the kings of Israel.

 

001:015Yet will I bring an heir unto thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah:
he shall come unto Adullam the glory of Israel.

 

001:016Make thee bald, and poll thee for thy delicate children;
enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone into
captivity from thee.
