Micah 6:8-13

8Mankind, he has told each of you what is good and what it is the Lord requires of you: to act justly, to love faithfulness, and to walk humbly with your God.

9The voice of the Lord calls out to the city (and it is wise to fear your name): “Pay attention to the rod and the one who ordained it.

10Are there still the treasures of wickedness and the accursed short measure in the house of the wicked?

11Can I excuse wicked scales or bags of deceptive weights?

12For the wealthy of the city are full of violence, and its residents speak lies; the tongues in their mouths are deceitful.

13“As a result, I have begun to strike you severely, bringing desolation because of your sins.
