Jeremiah 26:18-20
Holman Christian Standard Bible
18 “Micah the Moreshite(A) prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah(B) and said to all the people of Judah, ‘This is what the Lord of Hosts says:
Zion will be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem will become ruins,
and the temple mount a forested hill.’(C)
19 Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all the people of Judah put him to death? Did he not fear the Lord and plead for the Lord’s favor,[a](D) and did not the Lord relent concerning the disaster He had pronounced against them?(E) We are about to bring great harm on ourselves!”
The Prophet Uriah
20 Another man was also prophesying in the name of Yahweh—Uriah son of Shemaiah from Kiriath-jearim.(F) He prophesied against this city and against this land in words like all those of Jeremiah.

18 “Micah(A) of Moresheth prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. He told all the people of Judah, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“‘Zion(B) will be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble,(C)
the temple hill(D) a mound overgrown with thickets.’[a](E)
19 “Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in Judah put him to death? Did not Hezekiah(F) fear the Lord and seek(G) his favor? And did not the Lord relent,(H) so that he did not bring the disaster(I) he pronounced against them? We are about to bring a terrible disaster(J) on ourselves!”
20 (Now Uriah son of Shemaiah from Kiriath Jearim(K) was another man who prophesied in the name of the Lord; he prophesied the same things against this city and this land as Jeremiah did.
