ASV_Strong : Micah 1

verses:

1. The 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].

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

3. For[H3068], behold, Jehovah 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].

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

5. For the transgression[H6588] of Jacob[H3290] is all this[H2403], and for the sins 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]?

6. Therefore 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 thereof[H3247].

7. And 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[H868], and unto the hire of a harlot[H2181] shall they return[H7725].

8. For 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].

9. For 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].

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

11. Pass 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 thereof[H5979].

12. For 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].

13. Bind[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 in thee[H4672].

14. Therefore 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].

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

16. Make 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 from thee[H1540].
