HearH8085 ye now what the LORDH3068 saithH559; AriseH6965, contendH7378 thou before the mountainsH2022, and let the hillsH1389 hearH8085 thy voiceH6963. {before: or, with}
HearH8085 ye, O mountainsH2022, the LORD'SH3068 controversyH7379, and ye strongH386 foundationsH4146 of the earthH776: for the LORDH3068 hath a controversyH7379 with his peopleH5971, and he will pleadH3198 with IsraelH3478.
O my peopleH5971, what have I doneH6213 unto thee? and wherein have I weariedH3811 thee? testifyH6030 against me.
For I brought thee upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and redeemedH6299 thee out of the houseH1004 of servantsH5650; and I sentH7971 beforeH6440 thee MosesH4872, AaronH175, and MiriamH4813.
O my peopleH5971, rememberH2142 now what BalakH1111 kingH4428 of MoabH4124 consultedH3289, and what BalaamH1109 the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 answeredH6030 him from ShittimH7851 unto GilgalH1537; that ye may knowH3045 the righteousnessH6666 of the LORDH3068.
Wherewith shall I come beforeH6923 the LORDH3068, and bowH3721 myself before the highH4791 GodH430? shall I come beforeH6923 him with burnt offeringsH5930, with calvesH5695 of a yearH8141 oldH1121? {of a…: Heb. sons of a year?}
Will the LORDH3068 be pleasedH7521 with thousandsH505 of ramsH352, or with ten thousandsH7233 of riversH5158 of oilH8081? shall I giveH5414 my firstbornH1060 for my transgressionH6588, the fruitH6529 of my bodyH990 for the sinH2403 of my soulH5315? {body: Heb. belly}
He hath shewedH5046 thee, O manH120, what is goodH2896; and what doth the LORDH3068 requireH1875 of thee, but to doH6213 justlyH4941, and to loveH160 mercyH2617, and to walkH3212 humblyH6800 with thy GodH430? {walk…: Heb. humble thyself to walk}
The LORD'SH3068 voiceH6963 criethH7121 unto the cityH5892, and the man of wisdomH8454 shall seeH7200 thy nameH8034: hearH8085 ye the rodH4294, and who hath appointedH3259 it. {the man…: or, thy name shall see that which is}
Are thereH786 yet the treasuresH214 of wickednessH7562+H376 in the houseH1004 of the wickedH7563, and the scantH7332 measureH374 that is abominableH2194? {Are…: or, Is there yet unto every man an house of the, etc} {scant…: Heb. measure of leanness}
Shall I count them pureH2135 with the wickedH7562 balancesH3976, and with the bagH3599 of deceitfulH4820 weightsH68? {count…: or, be pure with, etc}
For the rich menH6223 thereof are fullH4390 of violenceH2555, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof have spokenH1696 liesH8267, and their tongueH3956 is deceitfulH7423 in their mouthH6310.
Therefore also will I make thee sickH2470 in smitingH5221 thee, in making thee desolateH8074 because of thy sinsH2403.
Thou shalt eatH398, but not be satisfiedH7646; and thy casting downH3445 shall be in the midstH7130 of thee; and thou shalt take holdH5253, but shalt not deliverH6403; and that which thou deliverestH6403 will I give upH5414 to the swordH2719.
Thou shalt sowH2232, but thou shalt not reapH7114; thou shalt treadH1869 the olivesH2132, but thou shalt not anointH5480 thee with oilH8081; and sweet wineH8492, but shalt not drinkH8354 wineH3196.
For the statutesH2708 of OmriH6018 are keptH8104, and all the worksH4639 of the houseH1004 of AhabH256, and ye walkH3212 in their counselsH4156; that I should makeH5414 thee a desolationH8047, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof an hissingH8322: therefore ye shall bearH5375 the reproachH2781 of my peopleH5971. {For the…: or, For he doth much keep the, etc} {desolation: or, astonishment}
