Yahweh Brings a Charge against Israel

• “Arise! Plead your case with the mountains,
  • and let the hills hear your voice.”
  • 2  and you eternal foundations of the earth,
• for Yahweh has an indictment against his people,
  • and against Israel he contends.
  • 3  and how have I wearied you? Answer me!
  • 4  and from the house of slavery I redeemed you.
  • And I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam before you.
  • 5  and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him,
• and what happened from Shittim to Gilgal,
  • so that you might know the righteous acts of Yahweh.”
