Micah 3:12

Micah 6:6

Context

6:6 With what should I 5  enter the Lord’s presence?

With what 6  should I bow before the sovereign God? 7 

Should I enter his presence with burnt offerings,

with year-old calves?

1 tn The plural pronoun refers to the leaders, priests, and prophets mentioned in the preceding verse.

2 tn Or “into” (an adverbial accusative of result).

3 tn Heb “the mountain of the house” (so KJV, ASV, NRSV).

4 tn Heb “a high place of overgrowth.”

5 sn With what should I enter the Lord’s presence? The prophet speaks again, playing the role of an inquisitive worshiper who wants to know what God really desires from his followers.

6 tn The words “with what” do double duty in the parallelism and are supplied in the second line of the translation for clarification.

7 tn Or “the exalted God.”
