Micah 1:6-8
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
6 Therefore I will make Samaria a heap in the open country,
a place for planting vineyards.
I will pour down her stones into the valley,
and uncover her foundations.
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.
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.
Micah 1:6-8
New International Version
6 “Therefore I will make Samaria a heap of rubble,
a place for planting vineyards.(A)
I will pour her stones(B) into the valley
and lay bare her foundations.(C)
7 All her idols(D) will be broken to pieces;(E)
all her temple gifts will be burned with fire;
I will destroy all her images.(F)
Since she gathered her gifts from the wages of prostitutes,(G)
as the wages of prostitutes they will again be used.”
