Michoh 1:12-14

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹² For the inhabitant of Marot waited anxiously for relief; but rah (evil) came down from Hashem unto the sha’ar Yerushalayim.

¹³ O thou inhabitant of Lachish, harness the merkavah to the swift horses; it was the reshit chattat (beginning of sin) to Bat Tziyon; for the transgressions of Yisroel were found in thee.

¹⁴ Therefore shalt thou give shilluchim (parting gifts) to Moreshet-Gat; the batim (houses) of Achziv shall be a deception to the melachim of Yisroel.
