Micah 1:13-15
New King James Version

13 O inhabitant of (A)Lachish,
Harness the chariot to the swift steeds
(She was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion),
For the transgressions of Israel were (B)found in you.

14 Therefore you shall (C)give presents to [a]Moresheth Gath;
The houses of (D)Achzib[b] shall be a lie to the kings of Israel.
15 I will yet bring an heir to you, O inhabitant of (E)Mareshah;[c]
The glory of Israel shall come to (F)Adullam.[d]

English Standard Version

13 Harness the steeds to the chariots,
    inhabitants of (A)Lachish;
it was the beginning of sin
    to the daughter of Zion,
for in you were found
    (B)the transgressions of Israel.
14 Therefore you shall give parting gifts[a]
    to (C)Moresheth-gath;
the houses of (D)Achzib shall be a deceitful thing
    to the kings of Israel.
15 I will again bring (E)a conqueror to you,
    inhabitants of (F)Mareshah;
the glory of Israel
    shall come to (G)Adullam.

Micah 1:13-15
New American Standard Bible

13 Harness the chariot to the team of horses,
You inhabitant of (A)Lachish—
She was the beginning of sin
To the daughter of Zion—
Because in you were found
The (B)rebellious acts of Israel.
14 Therefore you will give parting (C)gifts
In behalf of Moresheth-gath;
The houses of (D)Achzib will become a [a](E)deception
To the kings of Israel.
15 Moreover, I will bring on you
The one who takes possession,
You inhabitant of [b](F)Mareshah.
The glory of Israel will enter (G)Adullam.
