Micah 1:13

Read in context

Micah 1:11–15 · Berean Standard Bible

11 Depart in shameful nakedness, O dwellers of Shaphir. The dwellers of Zaanan will not come out. Beth-ezel is in mourning; its support is taken from you.

12 For the dwellers of Maroth pined for good, but calamity came down from the LORD, even to the gate of Jerusalem.

13 Harness your chariot horses, O dweller of Lachish. You were the beginning of sin to the Daughter of Zion, for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.

14 Therefore, send farewell gifts to Moresheth-gath; the houses of Achzib will prove deceptive to the kings of Israel.

15 I will again bring a conqueror against you, O dweller of Mareshah. The glory of Israel will come to Adullam.
