[1] 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, controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth: 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.
