Micah 1:8-10
New International Version - UK
Weeping and mourning
8 Because of this I will weep and wail;
I will go about barefoot and naked.
I will howl like a jackal
and moan like an owl.
9 For Samaria’s plague is incurable;
it has spread to Judah.
It has reached the very gate of my people,
even to Jerusalem itself.
10 Tell it not in Gath;[a]
weep not at all.
In Beth Ophrah[b]
roll in the dust.
