God Pleads with Israel

1 Hear now what the Lord says:
“Arise, plead your case before the mountains,
And let the hills hear your voice.
2 aHear, O you mountains, bthe Lord’s complaint,
And you strong foundations of the earth;
For cthe Lord has a complaint against His people,
And He will1 contend with Israel. 
3 “O My people, what ahave I done to you?
And how have I bwearied you?
Testify against Me. 
4 aFor I brought you up from the land of Egypt,
I redeemed you from the house of bondage;
And I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.

Micah 6:1

Arise, contend thou - This chapter is a sort of dialogue between God and the people. God speaks the five first verses, and convicts the people of sin, righteousness, and judgment. The People, convinced of their iniquity, deprecate God' s judgments, in the sixth and seventh verses. In the eighth verse God prescribes the way in which they are to be saved; and then the prophet, by the command of God, goes on to remonstrate from the ninth verse to the end of the chapter.
