Micah 1:13-15
American Standard Version
13 Bind the chariot to the swift steed, O [a]inhabitant of Lachish: she was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion; for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee. 14 Therefore shalt thou give a parting gift to Moresheth-gath: the houses of Achzib shall be [b]a deceitful thing unto the kings of Israel. 15 I will yet bring unto thee, O [c]inhabitant of Mareshah, him that shall possess thee: the glory of Israel shall come even unto Adullam.
