Micah 1:9-11
World English Bible
9 For her wounds are incurable;
for it has come even to Judah.
It reaches to the gate of my people,
even to Jerusalem.
10 Don’t tell it in Gath.
Don’t weep at all.
At Beth Ophrah[a] I have rolled myself in the dust.
11 Pass on, inhabitant of Shaphir, in nakedness and shame.
The inhabitant of Zaanan won’t come out.
The wailing of Beth Ezel will take from you his protection.

even to Jerusalem itself.

weep not at all.
In Beth Ophrah[b]
roll in the dust.

you who live in Shaphir.[c]
