6 Heyrið, hvað Drottinn segir: Statt upp og sæk sök fyrir fjöllunum, svo að hæðirnar megi heyra raust þína.
2 Heyrið kærumál Drottins, þér fjöll, og hlýðið á, þér undirstöður jarðarinnar. Því að Drottinn hefir mál að kæra við þjóð sína og gengur í dóm við Ísrael:
3 _ Þjóð mín, hvað hefi ég gjört þér og með hverju hefi ég þreytt þig? Vitna þú í gegn mér!
4 Ég leiddi þig þó út af Egyptalandi og frelsaði þig úr þrælahúsinu og sendi þér Móse, Aron og Mirjam til forystu.
5 Þjóð mín, minnst þú þess, hvað Balak Móabskonungur hafði í hyggju og hverju Bíleam Beórsson svaraði honum, minnst þú þess er gjörðist á leiðinni frá Sittím til Gilgal, til þess að þú kannist við velgjörðir Drottins.
6 _ Með hvað á ég að koma fram fyrir Drottin, beygja mig fyrir Guði á hæðum? Á ég að koma fram fyrir hann með brennifórnir, með ársgamla kálfa?
7 Hefir Drottinn þóknun á þúsundum hrúta, á tíþúsundum olífuolíulækja? Á ég að fórna frumgetnum syni mínum fyrir misgjörð mína, ávexti kviðar míns sem syndafórn sálar minnar?
8 _ Hann hefir sagt þér, maður, hvað gott sé! Og hvað heimtar Drottinn annað af þér en að gjöra rétt, ástunda kærleika og fram ganga í lítillæti fyrir Guði þínum?
9 Heyr, Drottinn kallar til borgarinnar, og það er viska að óttast nafn hans. Heyrið, kynstofn og saman kominn borgarlýður!
10 Á ég að láta sem ég sjái ekki, í húsi hins óguðlega, rangfengin auðæfi og svikinn mæli, sem bölvun er lýst yfir?
11 Á ég að láta honum óhegnt, þótt hann hafi ranga vog og svikna vogarsteina í sjóði sínum?
12 Ríkismenn hennar eru fullir af ofríki, íbúar hennar tala lygar og tungan fer með svik í munni þeirra.
13 Því tek ég og að ljósta þig, að eyða vegna synda þinna.
14 Þú skalt eta, en þó ekki saddur verða, heldur skal hungrið haldast við í þér. Þótt þú takir eitthvað frá, þá skalt þú eigi fá bjargað því, og það sem þú bjargar, skal ég ofurselja sverðinu.
15 Þótt þú sáir, skalt þú ekkert uppskera. Þótt þú troðir olífurnar, skalt þú eigi smyrja þig með olíu, og þótt þú fáir vínberjalöginn, skalt þú ekki vínið drekka.
16 Þú hefir haldið setningum Omrí og öllu athæfi Akabs húss, og þér hafið breytt eftir háttum þeirra, til þess að ég gjöri hana að auðn og láti íbúa hennar verða að spotti. Já, þér skuluð bera háð þjóðanna.

The Lord’s Case Against Israel
6 Listen to what the Lord says:
“Stand up, plead my case before the mountains;(A)
let the hills hear what you have to say.
2 “Hear,(B) you mountains, the Lord’s accusation;(C)
listen, you everlasting foundations of the earth.
For the Lord has a case(D) against his people;
he is lodging a charge(E) against Israel.
3 “My people, what have I done to you?
How have I burdened(F) you?(G) Answer me.
4 I brought you up out of Egypt(H)
and redeemed you from the land of slavery.(I)
I sent Moses(J) to lead you,
also Aaron(K) and Miriam.(L)
5 My people, remember
what Balak(M) king of Moab plotted
and what Balaam son of Beor answered.
Remember your journey from Shittim(N) to Gilgal,(O)
that you may know the righteous acts(P) of the Lord.”
6 With what shall I come before(Q) the Lord
and bow down before the exalted God?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
with calves a year old?(R)
7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,(S)
with ten thousand rivers of olive oil?(T)
Shall I offer my firstborn(U) for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?(V)
8 He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly(W) and to love mercy
and to walk humbly[a](X) with your God.(Y)
Israel’s Guilt and Punishment
9 Listen! The Lord is calling to the city—
and to fear your name is wisdom—
“Heed the rod(Z) and the One who appointed it.[b]
10 Am I still to forget your ill-gotten treasures, you wicked house,
and the short ephah,[c] which is accursed?(AA)
11 Shall I acquit someone with dishonest scales,(AB)
with a bag of false weights?(AC)
12 Your rich people are violent;(AD)
your inhabitants are liars(AE)
and their tongues speak deceitfully.(AF)
13 Therefore, I have begun to destroy(AG) you,
to ruin[d] you because of your sins.
14 You will eat but not be satisfied;(AH)
your stomach will still be empty.[e]
You will store up but save nothing,(AI)
because what you save[f] I will give to the sword.
15 You will plant but not harvest;(AJ)
you will press olives but not use the oil,
you will crush grapes but not drink the wine.(AK)
16 You have observed the statutes of Omri(AL)
and all the practices of Ahab’s(AM) house;
you have followed their traditions.(AN)
Therefore I will give you over to ruin(AO)
and your people to derision;
you will bear the scorn(AP) of the nations.[g]”

King James Version
6 Hear ye now what the Lord saith; Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
2 Hear ye, O mountains, the Lord's controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth: for the Lord hath a controversy with his people, and he will plead with Israel.
3 O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein have I wearied thee? testify against me.
4 For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
5 O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim unto Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the Lord.
6 Wherewith 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?
7 Will 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?
8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
9 The Lord's voice crieth unto the city, and the man of wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.
10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable?
11 Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?
12 For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
13 Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee, in making thee desolate because of thy sins.
14 Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting down shall be in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take hold, but shalt not deliver; and that which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword.
15 Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.
16 For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
