Micah 6:11

Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?

Shall I count them pure - literally, 'Shall I be pure with,' etc. With the pure, God shows Himself pure; but with the froward, God shows Himself froward (). Men often are changeable in their judgments, But God, in the case of the impure, who use 'wicked balances,' cannot be pure - i:e., cannot deal with them as He would with the pure. Vatablus and Henderson make the "I" to be 'any one:' 'Can I (i:e., one) be innocent with wicked balances?' But as "I" in refers to Yahweh, it must refer to Him also here.

And with the bag of deceitful weights? - in which weights used to be carried as well as money (; ).
