Micah 1:15-16
EasyEnglish Bible
15 People in Mareshah, I (God) will bring an army against you,
to fight your town. And it will win.
And Israel's leaders will need to hide at Adullam.[a]
16 People in Judah, cut off all your hair.[b]
Make yourselves bald like vultures,[c]
because you will be very sad.
Your enemies will take your children away.
They will take your children, whom you love so much, away to another country!
