Micah Chapter[BR] 6
1 Now listen to what the LORD is saying: Rise, plead *your case before the mountains, and let the hills hear your voice.
2 Listen to the LORD's lawsuit, you mountains and enduring foundations of the earth, because the LORD has a case against His people, and He will argue it against Israel.
3 My people, what have I done to you, or how have I wearied you? Testify against Me!
Micah Chapter[BR] 6
4 Indeed, I brought you up from the land of Egypt and redeemed you from that place of slavery. I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam ahead of you.
5 My people, remember what Balak king of Moab proposed, what Balaam son of Beor answered him, and *what happened from Acacia Grove to Gilgal, so that you may acknowledge the LORD's righteous acts.
Micah Chapter[BR] 6
6 What should I bring before the LORD when I come to bow before God on high? Should I come before Him with burnt offerings, with year-old calves?
7 Would the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousand streams of oil? Should I give my firstborn for my transgression, the child of my body for my own sin?
8 He has told you men what is good and what it is the LORD requires of you: Only to act justly, to love faithfulness, and to walk humbly with your God.
Micah Chapter[BR] 6
9 The voice of the LORD calls out to the city (and it is wise to fear Your name): "Pay attention to the rod and the One who ordained it.
10 Are there still the treasures of wickedness and the accursed short measure in the house of the wicked?
11 Can I excuse wicked scales or bags of deceptive weights?
12 For the wealthy of the city are full of violence, and its residents speak lies; the tongues in their mouths are deceitful.
Micah Chapter[BR] 6
13 "As a result, I have begun to strike you severely, bringing desolation because of your sins.
14 You will eat but not be satisfied, for there will be hunger within you. What you acquire, you cannot save, and what you do save, I will give to the sword.
15 You will sow but not reap; you will press olives but not anoint yourself with oil; and *you will tread grapes but not drink the wine.
Micah Chapter[BR] 6
16 The statutes of Omri and all the practices of Ahab's house have been observed; you have followed their policies. Therefore, I will make you a desolate place and the city's residents an object of contempt; you will bear the scorn of My people."
