Micah 1:14
Compare all
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. 
16 Make yourself abald and cut off your hair,
Because of your bprecious children;
Enlarge your baldness like an eagle,
For they shall go from you into ccaptivity.
