Micah 6:9 in Context — Micah 6

7 L’Éternel agréera-t-il des milliers de béliers, Des myriades de torrents d’huile? Donnerai-je pour mes transgressions mon premier-né, Pour le péché de mon âme le fruit de mes entrailles?

8 On t’a fait connaître, ô homme, ce qui est bien; Et ce que l’Éternel demande de toi, C’est que tu pratiques la justice, Que tu aimes la miséricorde, Et que tu marches humblement avec ton Dieu.

9 La voix de l’Éternel crie à la ville, Et celui qui est sage craindra ton nom. Entendez la verge et celui qui l’envoie!

10 Y a-t-il encore dans la maison du méchant Des trésors iniques, Et un épha trop petit, objet de malédiction?

11 Est-on pur avec des balances fausses, Et avec de faux poids dans le sac?
