The Lord Brings Charges Against Israel

6 Israel, listen to the Lord’s message. He says to me,

“Stand up in court.
Let the mountains serve as witnesses.
Let the hills hear what you have to say.”

²Hear the Lord’s case, you mountains.
Listen, you age-old foundations of the earth.
The Lord has a case against his people Israel.
He is bringing charges against them.

³The Lord says,

“My people, what have I done to you?
Have I made things too hard for you? Answer me.
