Context of Micah 6:10
8He hath shewn thee, O man, what is good: and what doth Jehovah require of thee, but to do justly, and to love goodness, and to walk humbly with thy God? 9Jehovah's voice crieth unto the city, and wisdom looketh on thy name. Hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it. Are there yet treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure [which is] abominable? 11Shall I be pure with the unjust balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights? 12For her rich men are full of violence, and her inhabitants speak lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
