O my people, remember (A)what Balak king of Moab devised,
    and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him,
and what happened from (B)Shittim to Gilgal,
    that you may know (C)the righteous acts of the Lord.”

What Does the Lord Require?

(D)“With what shall I come before the Lord,
    and bow myself before (E)God on high?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
    with calves a year old?
(F)Will the Lord be pleased with[a] thousands of rams,
    with ten thousands of rivers of oil?
(G)Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression,
    the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?”
