‘With what shall I come before the Lord,
and bow myself before God on high?Shall I come before him with burnt-offerings,
with calves a year old?Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,
with tens of thousands of rivers of oil?Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?’He has told you, O mortal, what is good;
and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God?
