Micah 1:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible
6 So I will make Samaria a (A)heap of ruins in the field,
(B)Planting places for a vineyard.
And I will (C)pour her stones down into the valley
And will (D)lay bare her foundations.
7 And all of her (E)graven images will be smashed,
And all of her earnings will be burned with fire
And all of her idols I will make desolate,
For she collected them from a (F)harlot’s earnings,
And to the earnings of a harlot they will return.
8 Because of this I must lament and wail;
I must go (G)barefoot and naked;
I must make a lament like the (H)jackals
And a 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.”
Weeping and Mourning
Micah 1:6-8
King James Version
6 Therefore I will make Samaria as an heap of the field, and as plantings of a vineyard: and I will pour down the stones thereof into the valley, and I will discover the foundations thereof.
7 And all the graven images thereof shall be beaten to pieces, and all the hires thereof shall be burned with the fire, and all the idols thereof will I lay desolate: for she gathered it of the hire of an harlot, and they shall return to the hire of an harlot.
8 Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and naked: I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as the owls.
