This is the vision that Micah saw about Samaria and Jerusalem.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/micah/1-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>Listen, all you people! Pay attention, earth and all who are on it. The Almighty LORD will be a witness against you. The Lord will be a witness from his holy temple.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/micah/1-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>The LORD is going to come from his place.
