⁶ Therefore, prophesy concerning the land of Israel and say to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys: This is what the Lord God says: Look, I speak in My burning zeal^(A) because you have endured the insults of the nations.

¹⁵ “I will no longer allow the insults of the nations to be heard against you, and you will not have to endure the reproach of the peoples anymore;^(A) you will no longer cause your nation to stumble.”^[a] This is the declaration of the Lord God.
