Micah 1:5-7
Names of God Bible
5 All this is because of Jacob’s crime and Israel’s sin.
What is Jacob’s crime? Isn’t it Samaria?
What is Judah’s worship place? Isn’t it Jerusalem?
6 So I will turn Samaria into a pile of rubble,
a place for planting vineyards.
I will roll its stones down into a valley and expose its foundations.
7 All its idols will be smashed to pieces.
All its wages for being a prostitute will be burned.
All its statues will be turned into a pile of rubble.
Samaria collected its wages for being a prostitute.
That money will again pay for prostitutes.
Micah 1:5-7
New International Version
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?(A)
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.(B)
I will pour her stones(C) into the valley
and lay bare her foundations.(D)
7 All her idols(E) will be broken to pieces;(F)
all her temple gifts will be burned with fire;
I will destroy all her images.(G)
Since she gathered her gifts from the wages of prostitutes,(H)
as the wages of prostitutes they will again be used.”
