Hear
ye now what the LORD
saith;
Arise,
contend
thou before the mountains,
and let the hills
hear
thy voice.
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.

O my people,
what have I done
unto thee? and wherein have I wearied
thee? testify
against me.
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.
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.

Wherewith shall I come before
the LORD,
and bow
myself before the high
God?
shall I come before
him with burnt offerings,
with calves

old?

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?

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?
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.
Are there
yet the treasures
of wickedness
in the house
of the wicked,
and the scant
measure
that is abominable?
Shall I count them pure
with the wicked
balances,
and with the bag
of deceitful
weights?
For the rich men
thereof are full
of violence,
and the inhabitants
thereof have spoken
lies,
and their tongue
is deceitful
in their mouth.
Therefore also will I make thee sick
in smiting
thee, in making thee desolate
because of thy sins.
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.

but thou shalt not anoint
thee with oil;

but shalt not drink

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.
