Micah 1:3-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 Look, the Lord is leaving His place(A)
and coming down to trample
the heights[a] of the earth.(B)
4 The mountains will melt beneath Him,
and the valleys will split apart,
like wax near a fire,(C)
like water cascading down a mountainside.
5 All this will happen because of Jacob’s rebellion
and the sins of the house of Israel.
What is the rebellion of Jacob?
Isn’t it Samaria?(D)
And what is the high place of Judah?(E)
Isn’t it Jerusalem?

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?
