Micah 6:7-9

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁷ Will the Lord be delighted with thousands of rams,
    with tens of thousands of streams of oil?
    Should I give my firstborn for my rebellion,
    the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
⁸ He has told you, mankind, what is good.
    What does the Lord require from you,
    except to carry out justice and to love mercy
    and to walk humbly with your God?

⁹ The voice of the Lord cries out to the city.
    To fear your name is sound judgment.
    Pay attention to the rod and to the one who appointed it.
