Micah 6:5-7
International Children’s Bible
5 My people, remember
the evil plans of Balak king of Moab.
Remember what Balaam son of Beor told Balak.
Remember what happened from Acacia to Gilgal.
Then you will know the Lord does what is right!”
6 You say, “What can I bring with me
when I come before the Lord?
What can I bring
when I bow before God on high?
Should I come before the Lord with burnt offerings,
with year-old calves?
7 Will the Lord be pleased with 1,000 male sheep?
Will he be pleased with 10,000 rivers of oil?
Should I give my first child for the evil I have done?
Should I give my very own child for my sin?”

5 My people, remember
what Balak(A) king of Moab plotted
and what Balaam son of Beor answered.
Remember your journey from Shittim(B) to Gilgal,(C)
that you may know the righteous acts(D) of the Lord.”
6 With what shall I come before(E) the Lord
and bow down before the exalted God?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
with calves a year old?(F)
7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,(G)
with ten thousand rivers of olive oil?(H)
Shall I offer my firstborn(I) for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?(J)
