Micah 6:6-12

6What should I bring when I come into the Lord’s presence, when I bow in front of the God of heaven? Should I bring him year-old calves as burnt offerings?

7Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams or with endless streams of olive oil? Should I give him my firstborn child because of my rebellious acts? Should I give him my young child for my sin?

8You mortals, the Lord has told you what is good. This is what the Lord requires from you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to live humbly with your God.

9The voice of the Lord calls out to the city. (The fear of your name is wisdom.) “Listen, you tribe assembled in the city.

10I have cursed all the wicked people who use their money for evil and use inaccurate weights and measures.

11I cannot tolerate dishonest scales and bags filled with inaccurate weights.

12The rich people in the city are violent. Those who live in the city speak lies, and their tongues speak deceitfully.
