Jeremiah26:18

18 Micah the Morasthite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and spake unto all the people of Judah, saying , Thus saith the LORD of host: Zion shall be plowed like a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house, as the high places of the forest .

This was that Micah, whose prophesies are part of holy Writ as appeareth by Micah 1.1. and 3.12. where are the very words of the Prophesie here mentioned.

The substance of that Prophesie was the same with this of Jeremiah, that Zion should be plowed up, and the place where the Temple stood should become so desolate that Trees should grow there, as in a Wood or Forest.
