Micah 1:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 For behold, the Lord cometh out of his place, and will come [a]down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
4 And the mountains shall melt under him (so shall the valleys cleave) as wax before the fire, and as the waters that are poured downward.
5 For the wickedness of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel: what is the wickedness of Jacob? Is not [b]Samaria? and which are the high [c]places of Judah? Is not Jerusalem?
