I will bring

Here "I" refers to Yahweh.

Mareshah

You may want to make a footnote saying, "There is a play-on-words here with the name of this village and the Hebrew word for 'conquerer.'" This term was used in Israel's conquering Canaan; now Israel will be conquered. This village is probably near Micah's home village of Moresheth Gath. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-names)

Adullam's cave

This refers to a very large cave where David once fled with his men to hide from King Saul, and the Philistines, their enemy. It was their last hope for safety and survival. This may apply to the leaders of Israel at this time who must flee.

Shave your head and cut off your hair

Shaving one's head was a sign of mourning for the Israelites.
