1. The word of Yahweh that came to Micah the Morashtite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, the kings of Judah, that he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem:
2. Hear, all you peoples; give heed, O earth and its fullness. And let the Lord Yahweh be against you as a witness, the Lord from his holy temple.
3. For behold, Yahweh is coming out from his place, and he will come down and tread upon the high places of the earth.
4. The mountains will melt under him and the valleys will burst open, like wax before the fire, like water rushing down a slope.
