15 Moreover, I will bring on you
The one who takes possession,
O inhabitant of [a](A)Mareshah.
The glory of Israel will enter (B)Adullam.

Because of the children of your delight;
Extend your baldness like the eagle,
For they will (D)go from you into exile.

  1. Micah 1:15 Lit to take possession

15 I will bring a conqueror against you
    who live in Mareshah.[a](A)
The nobles of Israel
    will flee to Adullam.(B)
16 Shave(C) your head in mourning
    for the children in whom you delight;
make yourself as bald as the vulture,
    for they will go from you into exile.(D)
