# Hear ... accusation
# Hear, you mountains, Yahwehs accusation
Micah speaks to the people of Israel as if he were speaking to mountains that can hear him, so "hear" is plural. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-apostrophe]])
Yahweh continues to speak as if he is in court and the mountains would hear his accusation against his people. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-personification]])
# you mountains ... you enduring foundations of the earth
# you mountains you enduring foundations of the earth
Micah is speaking to these things as if they are humans. Micah is using the mountains, hills, and foundations of the earth as an eternal witness against his people's idolatry. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-personification]])
Possible meanings are 1) these two phrases both refer to the mountains, or 2) the mountains and the foundations of the earth are two different parts of the world.
