PROPHECY TO THE MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL
“And you, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel and say, ‘You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD.
Thus says the Lord GOD, “Because the enemy has said of you, ‘Aha!’ and, ‘The ancient heights have become our property,’
therefore prophesy and say, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “For good reason they have made you a desolation, and they crushed you from every side so that you would become a possession of the rest of the nations and you have become the talk and the whispering of the people.”‘”
Therefore, O mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD. Thus says the Lord GOD to the mountains and to the hills, to the ravines and to the valleys, to the desolate ruins and to the deserted cities which have become prey and a mockery to the rest of the nations which surround you,
therefore thus says the Lord GOD, “Most certainly in the fire of My jealousy (love for that which is Mine) I have spoken against the rest of the nations and against all Edom, who appropriated My land for themselves as a possession with wholehearted joy and with uttermost contempt, so that they might empty it out [and possess it] as prey.”
Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel and say to the mountains and to the hills, to the ravines and to the valleys, “Thus says the Lord GOD, ‘Behold, I have spoken in My jealousy (love for that which is Mine) and in My wrath because you have endured the [shameful] insults of the nations.’
“Therefore thus says the Lord GOD, ‘I have lifted up My hand and sworn [an oath] that the nations that are around you will themselves endure their [shameful] insults.
But you, O mountains of Israel, will put out your branches and bear your fruit to My people Israel; for they will soon come [home].
For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn to you [in favor], and you shall be cultivated and sown.
I will multiply people on you, all the house of Israel, [indeed] all of it; the cities shall be inhabited and the ruins will be rebuilt.
I will multiply on you man and animal; and they will increase and be fruitful. And I will cause you to be inhabited as you were formerly, and I will do better [things] for you than at your beginning. Then you will know [with great confidence] that I am the LORD.
Yes, [O mountains of Israel] I will cause men–My people Israel–to walk on you and take possession of you, so that you will become their inheritance and never again bereave them of children.’
“Thus says the Lord GOD, ‘Because they say to you, “You [O land] are a devourer of people and have bereaved your nation of children,”
therefore you will no longer devour people, and no longer bereave your nation of children,’ says the Lord GOD.
I will not let you hear insults from the nations anymore, nor will you bear disgrace from the peoples any longer, nor will you cause your nation to stumble [through idolatry] any longer,” says the Lord GOD.'”
