[6:1] Listen to the Lord's case against Israel. Arise, O Lord, and present your case; let the mountains and the hills hear what you say.
[6:2] You mountains, you everlasting foundations of the earth, listen to the Lord's case! The Lord has a case against his people. He is going to bring an accusation against Israel.
[6:3] The Lord says, “My people, what have I done to you? How have I been a burden to you? Answer me.
[6:4] I brought you out of Egypt; I rescued you from slavery; I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam to lead you.
[6:5] My people, remember what King Balak of Moab planned to do to you and how Balaam son of Beor answered him. Remember the things that happened on the way from the camp at Acacia to Gilgal. Remember these things and you will realize what I did in order to save you.”
