Micah 1:15
An heir - The Assyrian, who in the right of conquest shall possess thee. Mareshah - A town of the Philistines. Adullam - Perhaps this city was considerable enough at that time, to be the glory of Israel.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Because of your bprecious children;
Enlarge your baldness like an eagle,
For they shall go from you into ccaptivity.
