and to listen than the fat of rams.

What Does the Lord Require?

6 i“With what shall I come before the Lord,
and bow myself before jGod on high?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
with calves a year old?
7 kWill the Lord be pleased with
Or  Will the Lord accept
thousands of rams,
with ten thousands of rivers of oil?
mShall I give my firstborn for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?”
8He has told you, O man, what is good;
and nwhat does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
Or steadfast love

and to pwalk humbly with your God?
