Miqueas 1

Allo strepito de' cocchi rimarrà stupido l'abitatore di Lachis: ella fu cagion primaria di peccato per la Figliuola ai Sion: perchè in lei si trovarono delle scelleraggini d'Israele.

Unce al carro dromedarios, oh moradora de Lachîs, que fuiste principio de pecado á la hija de Sión; porque en ti se inventaron las rebeliones de Israel.

O thou inhabitant of Lachish, bind the chariot to the swift beast: she is the beginning of the sin to the daughter of Zion: for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.

Harness the chariot to the swift steed, inhabitant of Lachish. She was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion; for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
