Hagiography

Ler em portuguêsCompare PT / EN

Micah the prophet: he was born in Morathi, of the tribe of Ephraim.

2This man did many things to Ahab, king of Judah; and by Joram his son he is slain, thrown down a precipice, when he rebuked him for his impieties and those of his fathers which they had wrought.

3And having died he was buried in Morathi, in his own land, quite alone, near the common burial-ground; and his tomb is easily recognized to this very day.
