Chapter 6
Mica KJVA 6:1  Hear ye now what the Lord saith; Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
Mica KJVA 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 KJVA 6:3  O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein have I wearied thee? testify against me.
Mica KJVA 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 KJVA 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 KJVA 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 KJVA 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 KJVA 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 KJVA 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 KJVA 6:10  Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable?
Mica KJVA 6:11  Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?
Mica KJVA 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 KJVA 6:13  Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee, in making thee desolate because of thy sins.
Mica KJVA 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 KJVA 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.
Mica KJVA 6:16  For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
