Micah 6:8-10
World English Bible

8 He has shown you, O man, what is good.
    What does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly,
    to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?

9 Yahweh’s voice calls to the city,
    and wisdom sees your name:
“Listen to the rod,
    and he who appointed it.
10 Are there yet treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked,
    and a short ephah[a] that is accursed?
