Micah 1:7
New English Translation
Micah 1:7
New English Translation
7 All her carved idols will be smashed to pieces;
all her metal cult statues will be destroyed by fire.[a]
I will make a waste heap[b] of all her images.
Since[c] she gathered the metal[d] as a prostitute collects her wages,
the idols will become a prostitute’s wages again.”[e]
Footnotes
- Micah 1:7 tn Heb “and all her prostitute’s wages will be burned with fire.”sn The precious metal used by Samaria’s pagan worship centers to make idols is compared to a prostitute’s wages because Samaria had been unfaithful to the Lord and prostituted herself to pagan gods such as Baal.
- Micah 1:7 tn Heb “I will make desolate” (so NASB).
- Micah 1:7 tn Or “for” (KJV, NASB, NRSV).
- Micah 1:7 tn No object is specified in the Hebrew text; the words “the metal” are supplied from the context.
- Micah 1:7 tn Heb “for from a prostitute’s wages she gathered, and to a prostitute’s wages they will return.” When the metal was first collected it was comparable to the coins a prostitute would receive for her services. The metal was then formed into idols, but now the Lord’s fiery judgment would reduce the metal images to their original condition.

Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
7 Madudurog ang lahat ng imahen ng dios-diosan ng Samaria, at masusunog ang lahat ng ibinayad ng mga lalaki sa kanilang pakikipagtalik sa mga babaeng bayaran sa templo.[a] Nakapagtipon ng mga imahen ang Samaria sa pamamagitan ng mga ibinayad sa mga babaeng bayaran sa templo, kaya kukunin ng kanyang mga kalaban ang mga pilak at ginto na binalot sa mga imahen para gamitin din ng kanyang mga kalaban na pambayad sa mga babaeng bayaran sa kanilang templo.”
