Micah 6:6-8
American Standard Version
6 Wherewith shall I come before Jehovah, and bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt-offerings, with calves a year old? 7 will Jehovah 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? 8 He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Jehovah require of thee, but to do justly, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with thy God?

What God Requires of Man
6 (A)With what shall I come to the Lord
And bow myself before the God on high?
Shall I come to Him with (B)burnt offerings,
With yearling calves?
7 Does the Lord take delight in (C)thousands of rams,
In ten thousand rivers of oil?
Shall I present my (D)firstborn for my rebellious acts,
The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
8 He has (E)told you, O man, what is good;
And (F)what does the Lord require of you
But to (G)do justice, to (H)love [a]kindness,
And to walk [b](I)humbly with your God?
