The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 that came to MicahH4318 the MorasthiteH4183 in the daysH3117 of JothamH3147, AhazH271, and HezekiahH3169, kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, which he sawH2372 concerning SamariaH8111 and JerusalemH3389.
HearH8085, all ye peopleH5971; hearkenH7181, O earthH776, and all that thereinH4393 is: and let the LordH136 GODH3069 be witnessH5707 against you, the LordH136 from his holyH6944 templeH1964. {all ye…: Heb. ye people, all of them} {all that…: Heb. the fulness thereof}
For, behold, the LORDH3068 cometh forthH3318 out of his placeH4725, and will come downH3381, and treadH1869 upon the high placesH1116 of the earthH776.
And the mountainsH2022 shall be moltenH4549 under him, and the valleysH6010 shall be cleftH1234, as waxH1749 beforeH6440 the fireH784, and as the watersH4325 that are pouredH5064 down a steep placeH4174. {a steep…: Heb. a descent}
For the transgressionH6588 of JacobH3290 is all this, and for the sinsH2403 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478. What is the transgressionH6588 of JacobH3290? is it not SamariaH8111? and what are the high placesH1116 of JudahH3063? are they not JerusalemH3389?
Therefore I will makeH7760 SamariaH8111 as an heapH5856 of the fieldH7704, and as plantingsH4302 of a vineyardH3754: and I will pour downH5064 the stonesH68 thereof into the valleyH1516, and I will discoverH1540 the foundationsH3247 thereof.
And all the graven imagesH6456 thereof shall be beaten to piecesH3807, and all the hiresH868 thereof shall be burnedH8313 with the fireH784, and all the idolsH6091 thereof will I layH7760 desolateH8077: for she gatheredH6908 it of the hireH868 of an harlotH2181, and they shall returnH7725 to the hireH868 of an harlotH2181.
Therefore I will wailH5594 and howlH3213, I will goH3212 strippedH7758+H7758 and nakedH6174: I will makeH6213 a wailingH4553 like the dragonsH8577, and mourningH60 as the owlsH1323+H3284. {owls: Heb. daughters of the owl}
For her woundH4347 is incurableH605; for it is comeH935 unto JudahH3063; he is comeH5060 unto the gateH8179 of my peopleH5971, even to JerusalemH3389. {her…: or, she is grievously sick of her wounds}
DeclareH5046 ye it not at GathH1661, weepH1058 ye not at allH1058: in the house of AphrahH1036 rollH6428+H6428 thyself in the dustH6083. {Aphrah: that is, Dust}
Pass ye awayH5674, thou inhabitantH3427 of SaphirH8208, having thy shameH1322 nakedH6181: the inhabitantH3427 of ZaananH6630 came not forthH3318 in the mourningH4553 of BethezelH1018; he shall receiveH3947 of you his standingH5979. {thou…: or, thou that dwellest fairly} {inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress} {Zaanan: or, The country of flocks} {Bethezel: or, A place near}
For the inhabitantH3427 of MarothH4796 waited carefullyH2342 for goodH2896: but evilH7451 came downH3381 from the LORDH3068 unto the gateH8179 of JerusalemH3389. {inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress} {waited…: or, was grieved}
O thou inhabitantH3427 of LachishH3923, bindH7573 the chariotH4818 to the swift beastH7409: she is the beginningH7225 of the sinH2403 to the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726: for the transgressionsH6588 of IsraelH3478 were foundH4672 in thee. {inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress}
Therefore shalt thou giveH5414 presentsH7964 to MoreshethgathH4182: the housesH1004 of AchzibH392 shall be a lieH391 to the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478. {to…: or, for Moreshethgath} {Achzib: that is, A lie}
Yet will I bringH935 an heirH3423 unto thee, O inhabitantH3427 of MareshahH4762: he shall comeH935 unto AdullamH5725 the gloryH3519 of IsraelH3478. {inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress} {he…: or, the glory of Israel shall, etc}
Make thee baldH7139, and pollH1494 thee for thy delicateH8588 childrenH1121; enlargeH7337 thy baldnessH7144 as the eagleH5404; for they are gone into captivityH1540 from thee.

EphraimH669 feedethH7462 on windH7307, and followethH7291 after the east windH6921: he dailyH3117 increasethH7235 liesH3577 and desolationH7701; and they do makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with the AssyriansH804, and oilH8081 is carriedH2986 into EgyptH4714.

Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of JudahH3063, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they have despisedH3988 the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068, and have not keptH8104 his commandmentsH2706, and their liesH3577 caused them to errH8582, afterH310 the which their fathersH1 have walkedH1980:

That pantH7602 after the dustH6083 of the earthH776 on the headH7218 of the poorH1800, and turn asideH5186 the wayH1870 of the meekH6035: and a manH376 and his fatherH1 will goH3212 in unto the same maidH5291, to profaneH2490 my holyH6944 nameH8034: {maid: or, young woman}
