Micah 1:5

Coming Judgment On Israel

⁴ The mountains will melt under him and the valleys will split apart, like wax in the presence of fire and like water gushing down a steep incline. ⁵ All this comes about due to the transgression of Jacob, and due to the sins of the house of Israel. What is Jacob's sin? It's Samaria, isn't it? And what's Judah's high place? It's Jerusalem, isn't it? ⁶ "So I will turn Samaria into a mound of dirt in a field, a place to plant vineyards. And I will dump her building stones into the valley, uncovering her foundation.
