Micah 1:7

Coming Judgment On Israel

⁶ Therefore I will make Samaria into heaps in the field, into a land of vineyards: and I will scatter her stones throughout the valley, and I will uncover her foundations. ⁷ All of her idols will be smashed,
All of her earnings will be burned with fire
And all of her images I will make desolate,
For she collected them from a harlot’s earnings,
And to the earnings of a harlot they will return.
⁸ Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and naked: I will make a wailing like the dragons and mourning as the owls.
