CHAP. VI. 1 God's controversy for unkindness, 6 for ignorance, 10 for injustice, 16 and for idolatry.


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


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.


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


4   For I brought thee out of the land of note Egypt, and redeemed thee from the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.


5   O my people, remember now what note Balak king of Moab consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from note Shittim to Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the Lord.


6   ¶2; Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt-offerings, with calves note of a year old?


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 note body for the sin of my soul?


8   He hath note 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 note walk humbly with thy God?


9   The Lord's voice crieth to the city, and note the man of wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.


10   ¶2; note Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the note scant measure that is abominable?


11    noteShall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?


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.


13   Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee, in making thee desolate because of thy sins.


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.


15   Thou shalt note 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.


16   ¶2; For note the statutes of note Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of note Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I should make thee a note desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
