Commentary for Micah 1:7

וְכָל־פְּסִילֶ֣יהָ יֻכַּ֗תּוּ וְכָל־אֶתְנַנֶּ֙יהָ֙ יִשָּׂרְפ֣וּ בָאֵ֔שׁ וְכָל־עֲצַבֶּ֖יהָ אָשִׂ֣ים שְׁמָמָ֑ה כִּ֠י מֵאֶתְנַ֤ן זוֹנָה֙ קִבָּ֔צָה וְעַד־אֶתְנַ֥ן זוֹנָ֖ה יָשֽׁוּבוּ׃

And all her graven images shall be beaten to pieces, And all her hires shall be burned with fire, And all her idols will I lay desolate; For of the hire of a harlot hath she gathered them, And unto the hire of a harlot shall they return.

Rashi on Micah

for from the hire of a harlot it gathered—all these riches.

Rashi on Micah

and to the hire of a harlot shall they return—And all its [Samaria’s] gatherings will be used up like other harlots’ hires. Jonathan renders: And to the house of the idol worshippers shall all its gatherings be delivered.
