1 This is Yahweh’s message that came to Micah (from Moreshet) in the days of Yehudah’s (Judah’s) kings Yotam (Jotham), Ahaz, and Hizkiyyah (Hezekiah), that he saw concerning Shomron (Samaria) and Yerushalem (Jerusalem).[ref]
≈Let the world and everything in it pay attention.
Let my master Yahweh be against you as a witness,
my master from his sacred temple
3 because wow, Yahweh comes out of his place.
He will come down and tread on the high places[fn] of the earth.
4 The mountains will melt under him.
≈The valleys will break apart,
like wax that’s near a fire,
≈like waters that are poured out from a steep place.
5 All that is because of Yakob’s (Jacob’s) disobedience,
and because of the sins of the Israeli people.
What was Yakob’s transgression? Isn’t it Shomron?
What is Yehudah’s (Judah’s) high place? Isn’t it Yerushalem?
6 “I will make Shomron a heap of ruins in the countryside—
≈a place for planting vineyards.
Then I’ll pour the stones from her buildings down into the valley
≈and I’ll uncover her foundations.
7 All her carved statues will be smashed into pieces,
and all her wages will be burned with fire.
Yes, I’ll totally destroy all her idols.
Since she used prostitutes’ wages to pay for them,
≈the crushed pieces of idols will become prostitutes’ wages again.”
8 Because of that, I’ll mourn and wail.
I’ll go barefoot and undressed.
I’ll wail like the jackals
≈and mourn like owls
9 because her wound is incurable.
≈It’s reached the gate of my people—reached Jerusalem.
10 Don’t tell about it in Gat.
Don’t weep at all.
I roll myself in the dust at Beyt-Leafrah (the house of dust).
11 Pass by undressed and humiliated, inhabitants of Shafir.
≈Don’t come out, inhabitants of Tsa’anan.
Beyt-Haetsel mourns—its place to stand is taken from you
12 because the inhabitants of Marot wait anxiously for good,
because disaster has come down from Yahweh to Yerushalem’s gates.
13 Harness the chariot to the team of horses, inhabitants of Lakish.
She was the beginning of sin for the daughter of Tsiyyon (Zion),
because Israel’s transgressions were first found in you.
14 So you’ll give parting gifts to Moreshet-Gat.
The town of Akzib will deceive Israel’s kings.
15 I will again bring a conqueror to you, inhabitants of Mareshah.
Israel’s best will come to Adullam.
16 Shave your head
≈and cut off your hair
for the children who you delight in.
Make yourselves as bald as eagles,
because they’ll be taken from you and into exile.
2 Woe to those who plan to do wicked things—
to those who do evil on their beds.
They do it in the morning light
because they make use of their power.
2 They see fields that they’d like and seize them,
≈and houses and they just take them.
They’ll oppress a man and his household—
≈even taking property handed down in the family.
“Listen, I’m planning to bring disaster against this clan,
which you won’t be able to avoid.
You won’t walk so proudly,
because it’ll be a terrible time for you all.
4 In that day someone will sing a song against you all.
≈and mourn with a song of wailing,
and say, ‘We’re completely ruined.
Yahweh changes my people’s territory.
How can he remove the land from me?
He divides our fields up to give to traitors.’ ”
5 Therefore, there’ll be no one in Yahweh’s assembly
who’ll have authority to measure you out any more land.
6 “Don’t tell us that,”
≈they tell us!
“They shouldn’t preach those things—
that sort of disgrace will never happen to us.”
7 Do Yakob’s descendants really ask,
“Is the Yahweh’s spirit impatient?
≈Are these his actions?”
Don’t my words do good to anyone who obeys them?
8 Lately my people have risen up against me like an enemy.
You strip the rich robe off those who’re innocently going past,
like a soldier on the battlefield might have done to his enemy.
9 You’ve driven our widows out of their pleasant houses.
≈You’ve forever deprived their young children of what I’d blessed them with.
10 Get ready and leave because this isn’t a place for resting.
≈It’s about to be completely destroyed because of its disobedience.
11 If someone comes to you full of talk and lies and says,
“I’ll prophesy to you about enjoying wine and strong drink,”
he’d be considered to be a prophet for this people.
12 I will certainly gather all of you, Yakob.
≈I’ll definitely assemble the remnant of Yisrael.
I’ll bring them together like sheep in a pen—
≈like a flock in the middle of their pasture.
Noisy because there’ll be so many people.
13 Someone will go in front of them to break open the way.
≈They’ll force open the gate and go out.
Their king will pass on ahead of them.
≈Yahweh will be at their head.
≈and rulers of the house of Yisra’el (Israel):
Isn’t it your responsibility to understand justice?
those who tear their skin off them
≈and their flesh from their bones,
3 those who eat the flesh of my people,
≈and their skin that they’ve stripped off them,
they break their bones,
≈and chop them in pieces,
just like soup in a pot—
≈like meat in a cauldron.
4 Then they’ll call out to Yahweh for help,
≈He’ll hide himself from them at that time,
because they’ve done evil things.”
5 So Yahweh speaks out against the ‘prophets’ who lead his people astray.
They lie through their teeth and proclaim, ‘Peace.’
They’re fighting against the one who never put a single word into their mouths.
6 Therefore, it’ll be night for you, without any visions.
≈It will be dark for you, without any prophesying.
The sun will go down on the ‘prophets’,
≈and the day will be black for them.
7 The tellers of the future will be put to shame,
≈and the diviners will be disgraced.
They will cover their lips, all of them,
≈because there’ll be no answer from God.”
8 But I’m full of power from Yahweh’s spirit,
≈and full of justice and strength,
to declare to Yakob his disobedience,
≈and to Yisra’el his sin.
