Micah 1:13-15
Young's Literal Translation
13 Bind the chariot to a swift beast, O inhabitant of Lachish, The beginning of sin [is] she to the daughter of Zion, For in thee have been found the transgressions of Israel.
14 Therefore thou givest presents to Moresheth-Gath, The houses of Achzib become a lying thing to the kings of Israel.
15 Yet the possessor I do bring in to thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah, To Adullam come in doth the honour of Israel.

New International Version
13 You who live in Lachish,(A)
harness fast horses to the chariot.
You are where the sin of Daughter Zion(B) began,
for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
14 Therefore you will give parting gifts(C)
to Moresheth(D) Gath.
The town of Akzib[a](E) will prove deceptive(F)
to the kings of Israel.
15 I will bring a conqueror against you
who live in Mareshah.[b](G)
The nobles of Israel
will flee to Adullam.(H)
