Micah 1:12 - Forerunner Commentary

Micah 1:12

10 ^aTell it not in¹ Gath,
Weep not at all;
In Beth Aphrah
Roll yourself in the dust.

11 Pass by in naked shame, you inhabitant of¹ Shaphir;
The inhabitant of¹ Zaanan does not go out.
Beth Ezel mourns;
Its place to stand is taken away from you.

12 For the inhabitant of¹ Maroth pined for good,
But ^adisaster came down from the Lord
To the gate of Jerusalem.

13 O inhabitant of ^aLachish,
Harness the chariot to the swift steeds
(She was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion),
For the transgressions of Israel were ^bfound in you.

14 Therefore you shall ^agive presents to Moresheth Gath;
The houses of ^bAchzib shall be a lie to the kings of Israel.

15 I will yet bring an heir to you, O inhabitant of ^aMareshah;
The glory of Israel shall come to ^bAdullam.
