Miquéias 5:10-15

10 “Naquele dia”, declara o SENHOR,“matarei os seus cavalose destruirei os seus carros de guerra.

11 Destruirei também as cidades da sua terrae arrasarei todas as suas fortalezas.

12 Acabarei com a sua feitiçaria,e vocês não farão mais adivinhações.

13 Destruirei as suas imagens esculpidase as suas colunas sagradas;vocês não se curvarão maisdiante da obra de suas mãos.

14 Desarraigarei do meio de vocês os seus postes sagradose derrubarei os seus ídolos.^[a]

15 Com ira e indignação me vingareidas nações que não me obedeceram”.
