Micah 6:8 He has showed you, oh man, what IS good,
And what does the Lord require of us,
but to do justly,
to love mercy,
and to walk humbly with your god?
I have always loved memorizing verses. And this one really does just sum up "What the Lord requires of us." There is no deciphering, he doesn't beat around the bush, it's just there. Plain and simple. This is what the Lord requires us to do.
In the previous verses it says:
And he says I have already showed you what is good. Do it.

6Wherewith shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?
7Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
And he says I have already showed you what is good. Do it.
