Micah 1:7-9

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁷ All her images shall be beaten to pieces,
    all her hires shall be burned with fire,
    and all her idols I will lay waste;
for from the hire of a harlot she gathered them,
    and to the hire of a harlot they shall return.

⁸ For this I will lament and wail;
    I will go stripped and naked;
I will make lamentation like the jackals,
    and mourning like the ostriches.
⁹ For her wound^[a] is incurable;
    and it has come to Judah,
it has reached to the gate of my people,
    to Jerusalem.
