Will the Lord be pleased with a thousand male sheep?
    Will he be pleased with ten thousand 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?”
The Lord has told you, human, what is good;
    he has told you what he wants from you:
to do what is right to other people,
    love being kind to others,
    and live humbly, obeying your God.

The voice of the Lord calls to the city,
    and the wise person honors him.
So pay attention to the rod of punishment;
    pay attention to the One who threatens to punish.
