“Therefore I [Micah] will lament and wail; I will go stripped and [virtually] naked; I will make a wailing like the jackals and a lamentation like the ostriches. For [Samaria’s] wounds are incurable and they come even to Judah; He [the Lord] has reached to the gate of my people, to Jerusalem (Micah 1:8-9 Amplified Bible).”
These are not the words of a lunatic or one on mind-altering drugs. 
If voiced today, authorities might put the speaker in a padded cell. No matter, he would make it his prayer room.
The Prophet Micah had inside information from the Lord God about the future destruction of Samaria. As we grieve impending death of a loved one battling cancer, he saw the effects of sin in its advanced stages. He diagnosed it as an incurable spiritual disease.
“For the wages which sin pays is death (Romans 6:23a Amplified Bible).”
That reads like an obituary. Praise God, a birth announcement follows!
“For the wages which sin pays is death, but the [bountiful] free gift of God is eternal life through (in union with) Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23 Amplified Bible).”
