Micah 6:9-11

The Voice of the Lord Speaks Against Sin
9 The voice of the Lord cries out to the city.
To fear your name is sound judgment.
Pay attention to the rod and to the one who appointed it.
10 You wicked house, do you still have[a] treasures gained by wickedness
and dishonest measurements that are cursed?
11 Can I condone your dishonest scales and your bags full of false weights?
