Micah 6:6-9
61With what shall I come to the Lord And bow myself before the God on high? Shall I come to Him with 2burnt offerings, With yearling calves?7Does the Lord take pleasure in 3thousands of rams, In ten thousand rivers of 4oil? Shall I give Him my 5firstborn for my wrongdoings, The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?8He has 6told you, mortal one, what is good; And 7what does the Lord require of you But to 8do justice, to 9love 10kindness, And to walk 1112humbly with your God?
9The voice of the Lord will call to the city-- And it is sound wisdom to fear Your name: “13Hear, you tribe. Who has designated 14its time?
