Micah 1:4
| ← Micah 1:3 | Micah 1:4 (KJV) | Micah 1:5 → |
|---|---|---|
For, behold, the LORD cometh forth out of his place, and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
|
And the mountains shall be molten under him, and the valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, and as the waters that are poured down a steep place.
|
For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? is it not Samaria? and what are the high places of Judah? are they not Jerusalem?
