Micah 1:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 All her images shall be beaten to pieces,
all her wages shall be burned with fire,
and all her idols I will lay waste;
for as the wages of a prostitute she gathered them,
and as the wages of a prostitute they shall again be used.(A)
The Doom of the Cities of Judah
8 For this I will lament and wail;
I will go barefoot and naked;
I will make lamentation like the jackals
and mourning like the ostriches.(B)
9 For her wound[a] is incurable.
It has come to Judah;
it has reached to the gate of my people,
to Jerusalem.(C)
