They told lies about you.” ’ ” 4 Mountains of Israel, listen to the message of the Lord and King. He speaks to you mountains, hills, canyons and valleys.

They made fun of you. 5 So the Lord and King says, “I am very angry with those nations. I have spoken against them and the whole land of Edom. They were very happy when they took over my land. Deep down inside them, they hated Israel. They wanted to take its grasslands.
