Micah 6
1 Hear ye now what the LORD saith; Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
audite quae Dominus loquitur surge contende iudicio adversum montes et audiant colles vocem tuam
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.
audiant montes iudicium Domini et fortia fundamenta terrae quia iudicium Domini cum populo suo et cum Israhel diiudicabitur
3 O my people, what have I done to thee? and wherein have I wearied thee? testify against me,
populus meus quid feci tibi et quid molestus fui tibi responde mihi
4 For I brought thee out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee from the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
quia eduxi te de terra Aegypti et de domo servientium liberavi te et misi ante faciem tuam Mosen et Aaron et Mariam
5 O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim to Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the LORD.
populus meus memento quaeso quid cogitaverit Balac rex Moab et quid responderit ei Balaam filius Beor de Setthim usque ad Galgalam ut cognosceret iustitias Domini
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?
quid dignum offeram Domino curvem genu Deo excelso numquid offeram ei holocaustomata et vitulos anniculos
7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, [or] with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my first-born [for] my transgression, the fruit of my body [for] the sin of my soul?
numquid placari potest Dominus in milibus arietum aut in multis milibus hircorum pinguium numquid dabo primogenitum meum pro scelere meo fructum ventris mei pro peccato animae meae
8 He hath shown thee, O man, what [is] good; and what the LORD doth require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
indicabo tibi o homo quid sit bonum et quid Dominus quaerat a te utique facere iudicium et diligere misericordiam et sollicitum ambulare cum Deo tuo
9 The LORD'S voice crieth to the city, and [the man of] wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.
vox Domini ad civitatem clamat et salus erit timentibus nomen tuum audite tribus et quis adprobabit illud
10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure [that is] abominable?
adhuc ignis in domo impii thesauri iniquitatis et mensura minor irae plena
11 Shall I count [them] pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?
numquid iustificabo stateram impiam et saccelli pondera dolosa
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.
in quibus divites eius repleti sunt iniquitate et habitantes in ea loquebantur mendacium et lingua eorum fraudulenta in ore eorum
13 Therefore also will I make [thee] sick in smiting thee, in making [thee] desolate because of thy sins.
et ego ergo coepi percutere te perditione super peccatis tuis
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.
tu comedes et non saturaberis et humiliatio tua in medio tui et adprehendes et non salvabis et quos salvaveris in gladium dabo
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.
tu seminabis et non metes tu calcabis olivam et non ungueris oleo et mustum et non bibes vinum
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.
et custodisti praecepta Omri et omne opus domus Achab et ambulasti in voluntatibus eorum ut darem te in perditionem et habitantes in ea in sibilum et obprobrium populi mei portabitis
