Chapter 6 Hear ye now what the Lord saith.

00:05.400 --> 00:10.040
Arise, contend thou before the mountains,
and let the hills hear thy voice.

00:10.860 --> 00:14.980
Hear ye, O mountains, the Lord's
controversy, and ye strong foundations of

00:14.980 --> 00:15.340
the earth.

00:15.920 --> 00:20.160
For the Lord hath a controversy with his
people, and he will plead with Israel.

00:21.000 --> 00:25.880
O my people, what have I done unto thee,
and wherein have I wearied thee?

00:26.740 --> 00:28.080
Testify against me.

00:28.740 --> 00:33.260
For I brought thee up out of the land of
Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house

00:33.260 --> 00:33.800
of servants.

00:34.340 --> 00:37.880
And I sent before thee Moses, Aaron,
and Miriam.

00:38.580 --> 00:44.120
O my people, remember now what Balak,
king of Moab, consulted, and what Balaam,

00:44.260 --> 00:47.480
the son of Beor, answered him from Shittim
unto Gilgal.

00:47.960 --> 00:50.200
That ye may know the righteousness of the
Lord.

00:51.360 --> 00:55.680
Wherewith shall I come before the Lord,
and bow myself before the high God?

00:56.360 --> 00:59.880
Shall I come before him with burnt
offerings, with calves of a year old?

01:00.660 --> 01:05.140
Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of
rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of

01:05.140 --> 01:05.340
oil?

01:06.100 --> 01:10.760
Shall I give my firstborn for my
transgression, the fruit of my body for

01:10.760 --> 01:11.880
the sin of my soul?

01:12.960 --> 01:18.200
He hath showed thee, O man, what is good,
and what doth the Lord require of thee?

01:18.620 --> 01:22.740
But to do justly, and to love mercy,
and to walk humbly with thy God?

01:22.740 --> 01:28.180
The Lord's voice crieth unto the city,
and the man of wisdom shall see thy name.

01:29.060 --> 01:31.560
Hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed
it?

01:33.000 --> 01:37.220
Are there yet the treasures of wickedness
in the house of the wicked, and the scant

01:37.220 --> 01:38.420
measure that is abominable?

01:39.140 --> 01:43.660
Shall I count them pure with the wicked
balances, and with the bag of deceitful

01:43.660 --> 01:43.980
weights?

01:44.640 --> 01:49.680
For the rich men thereof are full of
violence, and the inhabitants thereof have

01:49.680 --> 01:53.640
spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful
in their mouth.

01:54.560 --> 01:58.660
Therefore also will I make thee sick in
smiting thee, in making thee desolate

01:58.660 --> 01:59.760
because of thy sins.

02:00.400 --> 02:04.960
Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied,
and thy casting down shall be in the midst

02:04.960 --> 02:05.320
of thee.

02:05.880 --> 02:08.420
And thou shalt take hold, but shalt not
deliver.

02:09.080 --> 02:12.180
And that which thou deliverest will I give
up to the sword.

02:13.120 --> 02:15.400
Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap.

02:15.960 --> 02:19.320
Thou shalt tread the olives, but thou
shalt not anoint thee with oil.

02:19.320 --> 02:22.340
And sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.

02:23.580 --> 02:27.840
For the statutes of Amri are kept,
and all the works of the house of Ahab,

02:28.160 --> 02:31.920
and ye walk in their councils,
that I should make thee a desolation,

02:32.220 --> 02:34.280
and the inhabitants thereof an hissing.

02:34.720 --> 02:37.500
Therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my
people.
