TSNTyndale Study Notes:

6:1-16 The Lord presented, argued, and decided the case against his rebellious people, Israel. This section is formally presented as a legal court case (cp. Isa 1:2-4; Jer 2:4-9; Hos 4). Using the scenario of the courtroom, the Lord challenged his people to state their case against him, for he had a case against them (Mic 6:1-5)—they had not fulfilled his requirements (6:6-8), so they were guilty (6:9-12). The guilty verdict is followed by Israel’s sentencing (6:13-16).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / apostrophe

(Occurrence 0) Listen to Yahweh’s lawsuit

(Some words not found in UHB: hear mountains DOM indictment YHWH and,the,enduring foundations earth that/for/because/then/when case to/for=YHWH with people,his and,against Yisrael contend )

Micah speaks to the people of Israel as if he were speaking to mountains that can hear him, so both instances of “listen” are plural.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

(Occurrence 0) you mountains … you enduring foundations of the earth

(Some words not found in UHB: hear mountains DOM indictment YHWH and,the,enduring foundations earth that/for/because/then/when case to/for=YHWH with people,his and,against Yisrael contend )

Micah is speaking to these things as if they are humans. Micah is using the mountains, hills, and foundations of the earth as an eternal witness against his people’s idolatry.
