Mic. 1:16 KJV (With Strong’s)

16

Make thee bald, and poll thee for thy delicaten children; enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone into captivity from thee.

n

Lam. 4:5‑8• ⁵They that fed delicately are desolate in the streets; they that were brought up in scarlet embrace dung-hills.
⁶And the punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the reward of the sin of Sodom, which was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands were violently laid upon her.
⁷Her Nazarites were purer than snow, whiter than milk; they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their figure was as sapphire.
⁸Their visage is darker than blackness, they are not known in the streets; their skin cleaveth to their bones, it is withered, it is become like a stick. (Lam. 4:5‑8)
