Jeremiah 26:18-20
Legacy Standard Bible
18 “[a](A)Micah of Moresheth prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying, ‘Thus Yahweh of hosts has said,
“(B)Zion will be plowed as a field,
And Jerusalem will become a heap of ruins,
And the (C)mountain of the house will become [b]the high places of a forest.”’
19 Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? Did he not (D)fear Yahweh and entreat the favor of Yahweh, and (E)Yahweh [c]relented of the evil demise which He had spoken against them? But we are (F)committing a great evil against ourselves.”
20 Indeed, there was also a man who prophesied in the name of Yahweh, Uriah the son of Shemaiah from (G)Kiriath-jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land words similar to all those of Jeremiah.

Jeremiah 26:18-20
New International Version
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.
