MICAH
Chapter 6
Mica | KJV | 6:1 | Hear ye now what the Lord saith; Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:2 | Hear ye, O mountains, the Lord’s controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth: for the Lord hath a controversy with his people, and he will plead with Israel. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:3 | O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein have I wearied thee? testify against me. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:4 | For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:5 | O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim unto Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the Lord. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:6 | Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old? | |
Mica | KJV | 6:7 | Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? | |
Mica | KJV | 6:8 | He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? | |
Mica | KJV | 6:9 | The Lord’s voice crieth unto the city, and the man of wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:10 | Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable? | |
Mica | KJV | 6:11 | Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights? | |
Mica | KJV | 6:12 | For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:13 | Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee, in making thee desolate because of thy sins. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:14 | Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting down shall be in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take hold, but shalt not deliver; and that which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword. | |
Mica | KJV | 6:15 | Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine. | |
