And they were told to rest a little longer until the full number of their brothers and sisters[a]—their fellow servants of Jesus who were to be martyred—had joined them.

Micah 1:3-8
New Living Translation
3 Look! The Lord is coming!
He leaves his throne in heaven
and tramples the heights of the earth.
4 The mountains melt beneath his feet
and flow into the valleys
like wax in a fire,
like water pouring down a hill.
5 And why is this happening?
Because of the rebellion of Israel[a]—
yes, the sins of the whole nation.
Who is to blame for Israel’s rebellion?
Samaria, its capital city!
Where is the center of idolatry in Judah?
In Jerusalem, its capital!
6 “So I, the Lord, will make the city of Samaria
a heap of ruins.
Her streets will be plowed up
for planting vineyards.
I will roll the stones of her walls into the valley below,
exposing her foundations.
7 All her carved images will be smashed.
All her sacred treasures will be burned.
These things were bought with the money
earned by her prostitution,
and they will now be carried away
to pay prostitutes elsewhere.”
8 Therefore, I will mourn and lament.
I will walk around barefoot and naked.
I will howl like a jackal
and moan like an owl.
Micah 1:3-8
New International Version
Judgment Against Samaria and Jerusalem
3 Look! The Lord is coming from his dwelling(A) place;
he comes down(B) and treads on the heights of the earth.(C)
4 The mountains melt(D) beneath him(E)
and the valleys split apart,(F)
like wax before the fire,
like water rushing down a slope.
5 All this is because of Jacob’s transgression,
because of the sins of the people of Israel.
What is Jacob’s transgression?
Is it not Samaria?(G)
What is Judah’s high place?
Is it not Jerusalem?
6 “Therefore I will make Samaria a heap of rubble,
a place for planting vineyards.(H)
I will pour her stones(I) into the valley
and lay bare her foundations.(J)
7 All her idols(K) will be broken to pieces;(L)
all her temple gifts will be burned with fire;
I will destroy all her images.(M)
Since she gathered her gifts from the wages of prostitutes,(N)
as the wages of prostitutes they will again be used.”
