- "Micah 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 will be plowed like a field, Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble, the temple hill a mound overgrown with thickets.'
- "Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in Judah put him to death? Did not Hezekiah fear the LORD and seek his favor? And did not the LORD relent, so that he did not bring the disaster he pronounced against them? We are about to bring a terrible disaster on ourselves!"

- 首领和众民就对祭司,先知说,这人是不该死的,因为他是奉耶和华我们神的名,向我们说话
- 国中的长老就有几个人起来,对聚会的众民说,
- 当犹大王希西家的日子,有摩利沙人弥迦对犹大众人预言说,万军之耶和华如此说,锡安必被耕种像一块田。耶路撒冷必变为乱堆。这殿的山必像丛林的高处。
- 犹大王希西家和犹大众人岂是把他治死呢。希西家岂不是敬畏耶和华,恳求他的恩麽。耶和华就后悔,不把自己所说的灾祸降与他们。若治死这人,我们就作了大恶,自害己命。
- 又有一个人奉耶和华的名说预言,是基列耶琳人示玛雅的儿子乌利亚,他照耶利米的一切话说预言,攻击这城和这地。
