Ezekiel 36:1-7

“Son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel and tell them, ‘Mountains of Israel, hear the word of YAHWEH. Lord YAHWEH says to you: Your enemies have gloated over you by saying: “At last! Now we own these ancient high places!” ’ “So prophesy to them what I, Lord YAHWEH, have to say: ‘Your enemies have attacked you from all directions and turned your land into an empty ruin. This enabled other nations to take possession of your land. You also became the subject of people’s malicious talk and evil slander. Therefore, hear the word of Lord YAHWEH, you Mountains of Israel! Lord YAHWEH has a message for the mountains and hills, the ravines and valleys, the devastated ruins and abandoned cities that have been ransacked by your enemies and ridiculed by all the nations around you. Therefore, Lord YAHWEH says to you: Truly, I speak in my jealous anger against the rest of the nations and to the entire land of Edom. You gleefully and maliciously took possession of my land so that you could plunder its fertile pasturelands.’ “Therefore Ezekiel, prophesy over the land of Israel, its mountains and hills, its ravines and valleys. Prophesy to them what I, Lord YAHWEH, have to say: ‘Behold, I speak in my fiery passion because you have endured the vile insults of the nations. Therefore, Lord YAHWEH says: I raise my hand and solemnly swear that the nations all around you will have their own insults to bear!’ ”
