Micah 1:8-12
English Standard Version
8 (A)For this I will lament and wail;
I will go (B)stripped and naked;
I will make lamentation (C)like the jackals,
and mourning (D)like the ostriches.
9 (E)For her wound is incurable,
and it has come to Judah;
it has reached to the gate of my people,
to Jerusalem.
10 (F)Tell it not in (G)Gath;
weep not at all;
in Beth-le-aphrah
(H)roll yourselves in the dust.
11 Pass on your way,
inhabitants of Shaphir,
(I)in nakedness and shame;
the inhabitants of Zaanan
do not come out;
the lamentation of Beth-ezel
shall take away from you its standing place.
12 For the inhabitants of Maroth
wait anxiously for good,
because disaster has come down (J)from the Lord
to the gate of Jerusalem.
