Micah 1:3-5
Complete Jewish Bible
3 For — look! — Adonai is coming out of his place,
coming down to tread on the high places of the land.
4 Beneath him the mountains will melt,
the valleys split open like wax before fire,
like water poured down a steep slope.
5 All this is because of the crime of Ya‘akov
and the sins of the house of Isra’el.
What is the crime of Ya‘akov?
Isn’t it Shomron?
And what are the high places of Y’hudah?
Aren’t they Yerushalayim?
Micah 1:3-5
New International Version
Judgment Against Samaria and Jerusalem
3 Look! The Lord is coming from his dwelling(A) place;
he comes down(B) and treads on the heights of the earth.(C)
4 The mountains melt(D) beneath him(E)
and the valleys split apart,(F)
like wax before the fire,
like water rushing down a slope.
5 All this is because of Jacob’s transgression,
because of the sins of the people of Israel.
What is Jacob’s transgression?
Is it not Samaria?(G)
What is Judah’s high place?
Is it not Jerusalem?
