Micah:6:1-8
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Hear now what Jehovah says :
Rise up ,
contend with the mountains ,
and let the hills hear your voice .
*
Mountains ,
and you enduring foundations of the earth ,
hear the contention of Jehovah ,
for Jehovah has a quarrel with His people ,
and He will dispute with Israel .
*
My people ,
what have I done to you ?
And how have I made you weary ?
Answer against Me .
*
For I brought you up out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you out of the house of slaves ;
and I sent Moses ,
Aaron ,
and Miriam before you .
*
My people ,
remember now what Balak ,
king of Moab ,
planned ;
and what Balaam ,
the son of Beor ,
answered him from Shittim to Gilgal ,
so that you may know the righteousnesses of Jehovah .
*
With what shall I come before Jehovah ,
to bow myself before the loftiness of God ?
Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings ,
with calves ,
sons of a year ?
*
Will Jehovah be pleased with thousands of rams ,
with ten thousands of torrents of oil ?
Shall I give my first-born for my transgression ,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul ?
*
O man ,
He has declared to you what is good .
And what does Jehovah require of you ,
but to do justice ,
and to love mercy ,
and to walk humbly with your God ?
