Micah 1:7-9

Easy-to-Read Version

⁷ All her idols will be broken to pieces.
    And the offerings to her idols will be burned.
I will destroy all her statues of false gods,
    because she got them as pay for being a prostitute.
So those things will be taken away
    to be used again for paying prostitutes.

⁸ I will be very sad about what will happen.
    I will go without sandals and clothes.
I will cry like a dog.^[a]
    I will mourn like a bird.^[b]
9 Samaria’s^[c] wound cannot be healed.
    Her disease has spread to Judah.
It has reached the city gate of my people;
    it has spread all the way to Jerusalem.
