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.
