So I will change Samaria into a pile of rocks in the field,
    a place ready for planting grapes.
I will push Samaria’s stones down into the valley,
    leaving nothing but the foundations.
All her idols will be broken to pieces.
    And the offerings to her idols will be burned.
I will destroy all her statues of false gods,
    because she got them as pay for being a prostitute.
So those things will be taken away
    to be used again for paying prostitutes.

Micah’s Great Sadness

I will be very sad about what will happen.
    I will go without sandals and clothes.
I will cry like a dog.[a]
    I will mourn like a bird.[b]
