O my people, remember, now, what Balak, King of Moab, consulted,
and what Balaam, the son of Beor, answered him, from Shittim
unto Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the Lord.
Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before
the most high God? Shall I come before him with burnt-offerings,
with calves of a year old? Will the Lord be pleased with thou-
sands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give
my first-born for my transgression; the fruit of my body for the
sin of my soul ?-MICAH vi. 5—7.
