Micah 1:2-7

Hear, O peoples, all of you; Listen closely, O earth and all that is in it, And let the Lord GOD be witness [giving a testimony of the judgment] against you, The Lord from His holy temple [in the heavens]. [1 Kin 22:28] For behold, the LORD is coming down from His place He shall come down and tread [in judgment] on the high places of the earth. [Zech 14:3, 4; Mal 4:2, 3; Matt 24:27-30; Rev 1:7; 19:11-16] The mountains shall melt under Him And the valleys shall be split Like wax before the fire, Like waters poured down a steep place. All this is because of the rebellion and apostasy of Jacob And for the sins of the house of Israel (the Northern Kingdom). What is the rebellion and apostasy of Jacob? Is it not [the abandonment of God in order to worship the idols of] Samaria? What are the high places [of idolatry] in Judah (the Southern Kingdom)? Are they not Jerusalem [the capital and center of corruption]? Therefore I [the LORD] shall make Samaria a heap of ruins [and of stones and arable land] in the open country, A place for planting vineyards; And I will pour her stones down into the ravine And lay bare her foundations. [2 Kin 19:25; Ezek 13:14] All her idols shall be broken in pieces, All her earnings [from her idolatry] shall be burned with fire, And all her images I shall make desolate; For from the earnings of a prostitute she collected them, And to the earnings of a prostitute they shall return.
