Chap. I. note Samaria and al the tenne tribes shal be brought into captiuitie by the Assirians. 9. The two tribes shal also be inuaded and spoyled, euen nere to Ierusalem.

1   The word of our Lord that was made to Michæas the Morasthite, in the dayes of Ioathan, Achaz, and Ezechias kinges of Iuda: which he saw vpon Samaria and Ierusalem.

2   Heare al ye peoples: and let the earth attend, and the fulnes therof: and note let our Lord God be vnto you for a witnes, our Lord out of his holie temple.

3   Because loe our Lord wil goe forth out of his place: and he wil descend, & wil tread vpon the highest of the earth.

4   And the mountaines shal be consumed vnder him: and the

-- --

valleis shal be clouen, as waxe at the presence of fyre, & as waters that runne downe headlong.

5   For the wickednes of Iacob al this, and for the sinnes of the house of Israel. what is the wickednes of Iacob? is it not Sammaria? and what the excelses of Iuda? is it not Ierusalem?

6   And I wil lay Samaria as a heape of stones in the filde when a vineyard is planted: and I wil plucke downe her stones into the valley, & wil discouer her fundations.

7   And al her sculptils shal be cut in sunder, and al her wages shal be burnt with fyre, and I wil lay al her idols into perdition: because they are gathered together of the wages of an harlot, & note vnto the hyre of an harlot they shal returne.

8   Vpon this wil I lament, and howle: I wil goe spoiled, and naked: I wil make lamentation as of dragons, and mourning as it were of striches.

9   Because her plague is desperate, because it is come euen to Iuda it hath touched the gate of my people euen to Ierusalem.

10    noteIn Geth declare it not, weepe not with teares: note in the house of dust sprinkle your self with dust.

11   And passe ye to your selues ô faire habitation, confounded with ignominie: she went not out that dwelleth in the going out: the house adioyning shal receiue lamentation of you, which stood to her self.

12   Because she is weakened to good which dwelleth in bitternesses: because euil is descended from our Lord into the gate of Ierusalem.

13   Tumult of the chariot of astonishment to the inhabitant of Lachis: it is the beginning of sinne to the daughter of Sion, because in thee are found the wickednesses of Israel.

14   Therfore shal he geue spoilers vpon the inheritance of Geth: the houses of lying into deception to the kinges of Israel.

15   As yet wil I bring an heyre to thee which dwellest in Maresa: euen to note Odolla shal the glorie of Israel come.

16   Be bald, and be pouled for the children of thy delicacies: enlarge thy baldnes as an eagle: because they are led captiues out of thee.
