Micah 1:14-16
New Living Translation
14 Send farewell gifts to Moresheth-gath[a];
there is no hope of saving it.
The town of Aczib[b]
has deceived the kings of Israel.
15 O people of Mareshah,[c]
I will bring a conqueror to capture your town.
And the leaders[d] of Israel
will go to Adullam.
16 Oh, people of Judah, shave your heads in sorrow,
for the children you love will be snatched away.
Make yourselves as bald as a vulture,
for your little ones will be exiled to distant lands.
